Are officers issued PPE for this virus?

Asked by asdfasdf over 6 years ago

Damned if I know. I have been retired for 15 years. Back in the day we did issue gloves but I strongly suspect anything that needed PPE equipment would be handled by medical, not custody.

What would you do if you got Bill Hilary and Chelsey in your prison?

Asked by JAY over 6 years ago

Since I have been retired for 15 years, probably nothing. Also, neither Hillary nor Chelsey would come there, it is a male institution. Bill would probably be in protective custody. So I would probably laugh at him a lot, if I was there, which I wouldn't be.

Why are you rude to people who ask you questions sometimes?

Asked by Cjdnd about 6 years ago

I wouldn't say rude. I would say snarky. Some of the questions I get are really lame, and some of them are presented so poorly it is very hard to NOT say something snarky. I guess I am just a slave to my emotions. (Kind of like just now.)
