    I am a Correctional Officer at a max security prison.

    I very nearly considered going into the prison service here in Ireland but to be honest I didn't have the balls!
    Fair play to you, it must be a very demanding job.

    Currently, I stay home with my kids.

    In my previous life, I was a secretary at a cancer hospital. I loved working with smart people, but the pay wasnt great.

    I'm a mortuary affairs officer for the Army. I get to take care of all the fallen ones. Very depressing job, but very rewarding at the end. I get to send them home looking their best!

    Wow, super tough. Thank you for your service to our fallen heros

    @sofielien

    Actually you must be a negative person to think that...

    A positive person would think this is a great networking post for those that are thinking of other careers or options...I for one am enjoying reading this...

    As the original poster, I agree!! Nothing egotystical about it.
