Just FYI, we never wrote up inmates for having drugs in the factory, I just fired them. We didn't have time for that light weight shit. There was a waiting list with 100 names on it for any inmate jobs in the factory & it might take years to get their job back. Losing their job was worse than another write-up for drugs to a 3 time murderer.

My buddy Tom was caught trying to smuggle opium to USA from Pakistan. Imagine prison in another country, I can't. He never talked about it. The only story he ever told me was "I never miss my freedom so much till the day I seen a hawk, I don't really know if it was a hawk, but after seeing it gliding threw the air.." and that was it. Damn that man could play the guitar. Cancer is a horrible way to go in the end.

Impman, get some real life experience, or know someone with a bit. There are people that posted on this site that are not serving 5 years for cultivation from a federal judge. You're heading to ban town with your tinfoil hat views.

Congrats on your release from prison. The only difference between a C.O. and an inmate is the C.O. gets to go home at night. It's not a job I would want to do after seeing what the job entails first hand.

Don't lock the thread just take care of the problem. I believe there is some good stories to come. JJ has fought in Vietnam and spent his career in a place most of us can't even imagine but his heart is really big and would do anything to help one better their growing skills. I want to hear the story !

Just cultivation? Or were there other charges that stacked to get him down the road, and not just county jail for a while?

Hell just for the hell of it i was looking up people around me who've been busted, to see what realistically i would expect to serve as far as penalties. The guy i found apparently made national headlines, in a muti house situation, with like 3 other people. Not to mention by the time he got a cultivation charge, he had been in and out of jail on all sorts of various other shit through the years, many of them felony's. Less than 2 years after his cultivation charge, he was back in jail on something else. So in other words, he served mere days in jail, before being bonded, then court probably took another 3 months, so the absolute most he could have served was a year, maybe a year in a half, and his record WAS HORRIBLE.

So, I aint got to worries. lol , worse comes to worse, its just jail... Pretty easy way to live, been there once. lol But i also am the type of guy that makes everybody laugh and gets along with just about anybody, so I dont really run into problems. I could see how if you were a wannabe tough guy in jail/prison how things can go quite badly for ya. I know prison is a bit dif than jail, more freedoms, yet more hardened inmates to deal with. Got a buddy who's been in and out of the big house for about a quarter of his 40 something years, But you can tell how it has hardened him.
But hes like night and day compared to me as far as aggression is concerned. Lot's of fights and things, where as I do not see the point? Risk injury/maiming over some random ish, I'm a non confrontational person, but its not weakness, if i am to fight, its going to be lethal, cause if its not lethal, it does not solve the problem at hand, only provokes further attack. I just don't get the whole "fighter" mentality.

Well lets just say it was not his first offense, and it did not help to have weapons in the house and It was less then a month before he busted again...I love him but sometime people just dont know when to stop. I feel for his daughters who are the one being hurt in the long run...

Since this is your AMA, can you tell us some inmate stories. Were there any inmates who you genuinely liked and talked to on a day to day basis? Any that you kept in contact with after you quit working?

When my boyfriend did time for smuggling hash he made quite a few "prison guard" friends... he said 95% of them were really nice and he had a lot of respect for them!

I agree, the people who give their life to help us are not given the respect they need. I also have a friend who is a prison guard, I have heard some of the stories not all of them are bad...

Not to butt in but I still talk to some of the C.O.s that I was locked up with. Prison is what you make it. There are some really good corrections officers that will treat you with respect if you do the same. Mostly the older C.O.s that have been on the job for a long tme understand that it is not worth being an ass to inmates because it makes their job that much more dangerous. Then you have the new co's that are gung ho and just want to prove themselves. They usually get schooled fairly quickly and calm down. In some cases there is a very fine line between CO and inmate...I'm sure the OP knows what I'm talking about.
