I’m a CO in New Jersey for 16 years. I’ll tell anybody find a better career 16 hours shifts 2 to 3 times a week. Dealing with the stress from the inmates n other COs. The pay good but it’s not life changing. My opinion find a better career.
Move forward and apply I'm halfway thru the process its going to pay off in the long run , im in Central PA and there's 30 facilities, but just be ready for overtime 1 or 2 shifts per week but other C.O's will tell u that the pay is great.
NOOOOOO dont don’t do no STATE corrections!!!!!! Go FEDERAL, I waisted 12 years at the state. If your credit is straight and you don’t have no domestic violence charges, GO to the Feds!! You’ll thank me later.
I had a cm1 inmate tell me “Sarge we see how you move. You a man of your word. We gonna make sure our cells are straight for inspection in a little because we respect you”
To any of y’all looking at this DO NOT GO STATE!!!!!! Go FEDERAL and this is from someone that was a state OG, I worked at the state for 10 years and the FEDS is the way to go!!!!
Mannnn, you better put em onto the game! Say that again!! 🫵🏼🫡💯 i just saw this comment, my fault fam, my notifications i be gettin alot between here and my social media, i be missing comments sometimes. keep grindin
I enjoy this channel. I've applied to work at Trenton State Prison as a Corrections officer which I have no experience in and I applied as a maintenance supervisor which I have 22 years experience in but not in a prison. I want to be a corrections officer. But maintenance is cool too. I appreciate the information he's giving.
Good information Smoot , I've been doing corrections for 26 years now, currently ranked as Lt. you sound pretty much like myself when I speak to new officers in rollcall. We need more like you in the field!
All facts!! Also remember you can change a NO into a yes but it’s hard to change a YES into a No. so never tell an inmate yes to something unless you absolutely know you can do it. Your word is all you have behind that wall
Can you look into CDCR and Hector Bravo a youtube content creator like yourself. He speaks from a position of corruption and extremely negative. I wanted to see your perspective and your point of view. Speaks in terms of CDCR coming down on you even if you follow policy. (California Department of Corrections) this would be a great Video.
Straight facts...CO out in NJ and consistently is key...respect is a must and verbal judo cant definitely keep you out of situations if u feel it can go left...I deal with the younger population and from what I heard it is the most volatile and unpredictable population to control and handle but its the career is definitely rewarding...no one in the facility I work at makes less than 100k a year...Starting pay just increased to 70,000 first year out the acadmey...only problem is our academy is 22 weeks long...
Now how does these tips work in maximum security and supermax where the most problematic inmates are held? Inquiring minds would like to know. I am new to your channel.
prison is prison tbh bro. when i transferred to the federal prison im now at in North Carolina, they said its one of the best facilities in the BOP. ive been there now since 2015, and we have had multiple inmate homicides, inmate suicides, so anything can happen at any prison. never underestimate any facility or inmate. alot of inmates at my prison were once max custody that worked their way day, they can be one bad day or bad situation from relapsing
@@TheGhettoBodybuilder bro I'm not hating I'm being honest why don't you be honest too. I know the get down . Loser dude from. High school gets c/o job feel beta starts taking steroids and being evil to inmates
@gtkid3289 i aint hip on cali c/o testing, but in corrections in general, most of them tests are scenario based and you gotta pick the most politically correct answer you would do in that situation. always think security & safety of the institution & sticking to the policy and procedures
