For those that are physically [and have a strong mental consitution] can go apply for Corrections. The process is rather long but the pay is rather good, you work with the government so you get a good pension and hazard pay [good or bad way depending on how you look at it]. This is just a recommendation for you fellas that probaly worked security somewhere else, you can pick this up at your local government agency or government job site. Florida has a crapload of positions like this.
I wish I could go into it but I don’t think I got the mental fortitude to deal with inmates. But then again my buddy who is doing the training has seen people of all walks of life [20s young men to 57-year old women]. Of course working with the government you have to be clean, no criminal record and you have to take a polygraph test/background test.
But yeah being unemployed blows. Im trying this Border Patrol gig and Im in the waiting list to get a background check to see if I can even continue forward. Associate degree doesn’t land you SHIT. I really want to go back to school but I don’t want to be in debt again. Granted I had to fall back on my folks again and bummin’ it up there… really need to find a career. Was an accounting clerk before and can’t seem to find anything here.
