Former CO here. Just wanted to say that I feel really awful for your situation, but happy you could turn it around and do something productive with your life after that travesty. I want you specifically to know that one of the primary factors in my decision to quit my 5+ year career was learning of the Stanford Prison Experiment and seeing similar behavior changes in my own co-workers over time. The deliberate indifference has literally killed several inmates in my state. I told myself when I quit that it was a moral decision that had to be made in spite of the current job market, and sure enough I am jobless and down to my last couple months of savings. My co-workers said I'd be back. I told them that the day they saw me set foot in that prison, they should put me on a suicide watch, because the only reason I'd go back is to blow my brains out for my supervisors to find. Dead serious. (It doesn't help that I've actually been suicidal.)

Anyway, long rant, but it's a humble apology to you from me and a few good officers, because there are a few out there, and I hope you know that. No question, but I wish you the best of luck and I'm so happy for your success!

Why is Radio Shack still in business? I'm really curious about that, and although my question is somewhat of a sarcastic one, I really mean it. If someone gave me a five thousand dollar gift card to Radio Shack, I couldn't spend it all.
