At work I must wear an ID badge at all times. In prison they provide you with clothing with the ID conveniently sewn onto the clothes.

At work there is a dress standard but I must buy my own clothes. In prison there is a dress standard, but they supply the clothes.

At work I must carry around a security card and unlock and open all the doors myself. In prison a guard locks and unlocks all the doors for me.

In prison they will pay my way through school to learn a new career and give me time to do it. At work they will pay for my education but I must do it on my own time.

In prison they have exercise rooms that they allow you to use almost
whenever you want. At work we have an exercise room that you can use but it must be on your time.

In prison all expenses are paid by the tax payer, with no work on their part. At work, you get to pay all the expenses to go to work, and then deduct the taxes from your salary to pay for the prisoners.

Lol, jail seems like a good idea, expecially if you grab a bachelors degree in prison and not have to worry about student loans.

I remember being told once that marriage wasn't a word, but a sentence (a life sentence). I've also been told that it's an institution (a mental institution).
