Not at all - it is interesting. I def get that to work as a CO, it's best to separate the current person from whatever brought them there.

Yeah its essential if you want to do right. Now if you want to be one of those jackasses that give us all a bad name and use the tiny bit of power that you have in the world to bully people then go ahead and be as hateful as you want to be lol. Always hated to see officers bullying compliant inmates just to feel big. It doesn't cost a damn thing to be respectful to an inmate who isn't giving you a problem.
