For those of you out there that don't work in the prison, this is a good way for you to see just how stupid some people are. If you are the type of person that is offended by this as a loved one may be in jail, maybe you should have been more concerened and tried to help them before they went to jail than you are now about me making fun of the stupid questions they ask...

CO, ie Corrections Officer, they call us CO....

CO, is it going to rain today? They have TV's in the unit and watch the news every morning, I am in an office with no tv... so how would I know if it is going to rain.
CO... Whats for lunch today? They have menu's posted for their food, comes out two weeks at a time... So when I say what I might be having for lunch that day, they say oh, thats not what it said on the menu, if they read the menu, why did they ask me?

    No, they know not to test the waters, Jason's universal answer for every question asked is NO. Quite simple, How great is this job when no matter what they ask, you can just say NO.

    Ok, maybe they aren't all that dumb of questions to the normal person, but when you get asked the same stuff every day by the same people, your ability to not be annoyed over them just goes away...

    I work in a residential alternative to detention program with juveniles and it seems they have the same questions! The attitudes and questions can be very irritating :)

    LOL yes. Sad but true. The youth I work with are mainly inner city kids, so statistics aren't exactly encouraging, sadly.

    I work out in the field so you know what kind of people I get to deal with. Sometimes I wish they had a ticket we could just give for plain stupidity when no laws are broken.
