Can you live with it, or are there other problems you haven't mentioned? It's worth pointing out that with that kind of money, you can afford to do a lot of charitable work you wouldn't be able to afford on 50k a year, especially if you're supporting a family at the same time. Even if you're not working as a correctional officer, there are other ways you can help people in prison. Many people struggle to reintegrate to society and with finding work, which can cause them to go back to a life of crime. Helping those people learn work skills and get jobs would help them a lot more, and you'd have a lot more freedom and flexibility than you would if you were just another cog in the system. The job isn't bad, the hours kind of suck, but the work it self isn't bad at all. Doctor Foxx posted... SunWuKung420 posted... lihlih posted... I enjoy jobs where I help people lihlih posted... The job I've wanted for about 10 years now, is being a Correctional Officer for a federal prison Not the same. That job relies on incarcerating as many people as possible. The whole system is designed to shit on people not help them. Moonjay posted... Yeah you're not going to help anyone as a correctional officer. I say this as someone who took a job doing something meaningful for less than half the pay of my last job I'm glad to be doing work that makes a difference but being a CO is not that work Aren't you a vet? I thought those guys make a shit ton of money. --- Not removing this until Pat Benatar is in Super Smash Bros. (Started 12/19/2017) <cite>lihlih posted [p:895967037] in I need som...
