Work vs. Prison?

IN PRISON... you spend the majority of your time in an 8X10 cell.

AT WORK... you spend the majority of your time in a 6X8 desk

cubicle.

IN PRISON...you get time off for good behaviour.

AT WORK...you get more work for good behaviour.

IN PRISON...the guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you.

AT WORK...you must carry around a security card and open all the

doors for yourself.

IN PRISON...you can watch TV and play games.

AT WORK...you get fired for watching TV and playing games.

IN PRISON...they allow your family and friends to visit

AT WORK...you can't even speak to your family on the phone.

IN PRISON...the taxpayers pay all expenses with no work required.

AT WORK...you get to pay all the expenses to go to work and then

they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners.

Have a Great Day at WORK - I'm going to PRISON!!!

    And you are not joking. My son is in the nick as we speak.. His cell has been kitted out

    A Rug...practically a wall to wall

    Matching Duvet / curtains

    Lamp

    Ps2..With as many games as he likes

    Tv [rented form jail £1 per week

    As many dvds as he likes

    Ministry of sound Hifi [max 100watt output.

    He is in a semi open jail, HE HAS A KEY TO HIS OWN CELL DOOR. They dont ever get locked up as such. His section gets locked up but all the guys can go in and out of each others rooms all night. My son gets to mix with other boys from all over the country. He can stay with them until 4am if he feels like

    I would say my son has more freedom now than he has ever had in his life

    Wake up guys. Under Mma rules, the Mma fighter wins. Locked in a cell, it's anyone's game. The prison fighter has self taught tactics, or tactics that have been passed to him by other inmates. Hardcore prisoners are in good shape, and some have a killing mindset, and hidden weapons. There are many prisoners with martial arts backgrounds as well.

    Work is better. It's only 40 hours in a week. You get way over a 100 hours off. If you hate work get a security guard job on third shift. You will get by on your bills and not do squat. Stop renting too. I know people living in their cars. That's a 90% savings right there. I was a volunteer firefighter and lived at the fire station. 24 hours fitness is a living quarters too. Explore your options. Why the f..k would you trade work for jail?

    I also p*ss in a bucket when I'm at work and am too frightened to bend down in the toilets to pick the soap up.

    But at the end of the day, I still get to go home. Free and clear.

    I think this is the excact reason my ex-hus refuses to work, commits lots of crime and lets the police catch him, kinda to p!ss me off cos it's all our hard earned money that's giving him a roof over his head!

    What a life us hardworkers live.
