that your co-worker was a convicted felon/murder and was released only because the courts LOST all of the records pertaining to the case. They have served half of the time they were sentenced to and still have anger issues. Would you be nervous around them? Would you be armed (lawfully) around them?

your thoughts- GO

    I’d stab him/her immediately and steal their pudding from their lunch.

    I've worked with psychos before. No big deal. They just blend in with the rest of the voices in my head.

    Hm, I would quit and find a new job. If I got him fired and he found out then may come after me thinking he could get away with it a second time. So yeah. I would quit.

    I go "lawfully" armed everywhere so that wouldn't be the issue. But if they gave me no cause to fear them I probably wouldn't. If they are making it hard to work there are other ways to deal with that.

    What If You found out ....that your co-worker was a convicted felon/murder and was released only because the courts LOST all of the records pertaining to the case.

    What if I told you that some people that should be in jail are not and some people in jail shouldn't be in jail.

    I've never thought about this scenario before, but I would probably bring them coffee in the morning on a regular and predictable schedule. Every time I brought the coffee, I would give them a compliment and then ask what their plans were. Using this highly scientific method of Pavlovian seduction I would eventually get the coworker comfortable enough to share any schemes or plans for evil with me, and then alert the authorities in time to save the day. I would stand just outside the crime scene barricade wearing a superman cape and the victorious glare of a much younger, hotter, more female Bruce Willis. If there were no breeze, I would bring along a fan to flutter the cape for me.

    I go Lawfully armed everywhere anyways as well. but when I did find out, it did make a bit more sense. (his anger issues and him flying off the handle about things, and why he is always listening to soothing music)

    Considering I work in a prison, it wouldn't bother me. Without actual details of a case, it is hard to decide if I would even perceive this person as a threat. He/she may in fact be innocent and had a ****ty lawyer that couldn't get them out of it or maybe he/she murdered someone that harmed their child or someone important in their life.
