    A few questions for an extra credit paper. Any Corrections Officer! Thanks!

    Hi, I am a student at Norwich University, The Military College of Vermont. I am majoring in Criminal Justice and I have an extra credit paper due by the end of the day today. I was hoping anyone could help me out, it would only require you to answer a few questions. They are as follows:

    What is your present position and/or title in your corrections organization?
    How long have you been a member of corrections?
    What was your first position/title when you joined corrections?
    Briefly describe your duties in that position.
    Why did you join the corrections profession?
    What was your educational level when you joined?
    Have you received any more formal education since joining corrections?
    Describe your present duties.
    Have you ever been concerned about your personal safety on the job?
    What do you like most about your job?
    What do you like least about your job?


    Thank you to anyone who can answer these questions!
    (If it would be easier to do this by phone just send me a message and I will reply with my number)
    Again, thank you so much.

    Interesting. I also had to interview a corrections professional for a paper this semester.


    What I did was to make an appointment, leave my house and go talk to someone in person.

    And did you wait to do that until the same day the paper was due or in advance?

    you always wait til it's due, that way you can show that you operate under pressure...

    Haha, actually I thought I had an A in the course but, we took an exam yesterday that I did not do so well on so my grade became a B+. So the extra credit would be very helpful

    Here's the problem.....

    Interview me in person, I can talk and you do all the writing. Interview me on the Internet, I have to do all the writing and you get to cut and paste.

    Guess how I'd prefer to be interviewed......

    Quit being lazy, turn off your computer and go to a corrections facility and ask to interview someone. You'll get a lot more out of the experience and someone else won't have to do all your work.
    Apparently, I'm supposed to be more angry about what Mitt Romney does with his money than what Barack & Michelle Obama do with mine
