Just in case you ever get these two environments mixed up, this should make things a little bit clearer.
| @ PRISON | @ WORK |
| You spend the majority of your time in a 10X10 cell | You spend the majority of your time in an 8X8 cubicle |
| You get three meals a day fully paid for | you get a break for one meal and you have to pay for it |
| You get time off for good behavior | you get more work for good behavior |
| The guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you | you must often carry a security card and open all the doors for yourself |
| You can watch TV and play games | you could get fired for watching TV and playing games |
| You get your own toilet | you have to share the toilet with some people who pee on the seat |
| They allow your family and friends to visit | you aren't even supposed to speak to your family |
| All expenses are paid by the taxpayers with no work required | you get to pay all your expenses to go to work, and they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners |
| You spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out | you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars |
| You must deal with sadistic wardens | they are called managers |
| You can talk about God, and even participate in Religious Studies | You'd best avoid discussing religion if you want to keep your job! |
Is there something seriously wrong with this picture?
