Just in case you ever get these two environments mixed up, this should make thing a little bit easier....
Prison vs. Work (Another article brought to you by my brother, Gary)
PRISON: *You spend the majority of your time in a 10 x 10 cell.
WORK: *You spend the majority of your time in an 8 x 8 cubicle. ---------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *You get three meals a day fully paid for.
WORK: *You get a break for one meal and you have to pay for it. ---------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *You get time off for good behavior.
WORK: *You get more work for good behavior. ---------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *The guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you.
WORK: *You must often carry a security card and open all the doors yourself. ---------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *You can watch television and play games.
WORK: *You could get fired for watching television and playing games. ---------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *You get your own toilet.
WORK: *You have to share the toilet with some people who pee on the seat. ----------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *They allow your family and friends to visit.
WORK: *You are not even supposed to speak with your family. ----------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *All expenses are paid by the taxpayers with no work required.
WORK: *You get to pay all your expenses to go to work and they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners and welfare. ----------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *You spend most of you life inside bars wanting to get out.
WORK: *You spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars. ----------------------------------------------------- PRISON: *You must deal with sadistic wardens.
WORK: *They are called managers. -----------------------------------------------------
*Now you tell me, what is wrong with this picture??

just think, for most who spend over 10 years in and get out they are so acclimated to prison they commit crimes again just to get back in. and we are still working, where is the justice for that??? good write and so true.
Ironic. Well, I don't have much to complain about being on disability. But it took going crazy at work to get here. So much for work. Love the article. Liz
Hmmm, it was just like sitting next to my husband when he gets going on the subject. Worryingly true - let's just remember you can't put a price on self respect and the trust of others; its value is beyond measure.
