    best advice i got 17 years in was from a inmate at the jail... he told me you go home because we let you go home... and thats the damn truth!!!

    Best correctional officer videos on TH-cam. Respect

    This part about respect is so important, not just because they’re inmates but because it’s how we should treat another human being.

    Confidence, being respectful and treat people with respect. This is coming from a former correction officer

    Starting my correctional officer career on Jan 6th. I'm going into Juvenile detention. I'm excited for the overtime pay. Never thought I would be in "law" enforcement. But 4 kids and a wife, u gotta do what you gotta do! All Praises to The Most High

    Love the video, communication can save you stress and avoid unnecessary fights. Definitely would recommend people joining a martial art of some kind not just for the fitness aspect but for the mental confidence and keeping your composure in high stress situations. They will teach you techniques but consistency will save your life.

      no doubt. ive always been a weight lifter, but i may take up karate or boxing one day to mix things up

      Thats Awesome, I always preach to my co workers join some sort of grappling martial art. And lift weights and you'll be unstoppable. We all want to go home safe to our families and be ready for fights/ emergencies.

    When I started, my uncle who was in for 15 years told me that whether I'm fighting everyday or I'm making it easy on myself by showing a little respect and building rapport with the cons, I'm getting paid the same thing. I didn't have too many issues in 13 years.

    This dude is mad solid and a good human being 💯. The scariest part of my patrols as a security guard were downtown when the fences were down, I had to patrol the streets at night in a ghetto construction zone. I used to use the walkie talkie to tell dispatch I was doing my outside rounds so that if I didn't walkie talkie back in 15 mins that meant something bad happened to me. Luckily nothing terrible happened. God bless this TH-cam channel ghetto bodybuilder be breaking off game for those interested in pursuing corrections. Much Love!!!

    Fair, firm and consistent are the principles that will carry you throughout a corrections career.
    Also, inmates watch people all day. They can see through a "tough guy" act a mile away. Just be yourself and they'll respect you better in the long run.

      Thee is no command voice! In the academy the want you to be all loud !! But, look at it this way , would you take orders from someone yelling all loud, or someone just talking. Normally but understandable?

    • @thetrossfamily585
      @thetrossfamily585 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @ There is a such thing as a Command voice , it’s when u demanding attention from someone .. Sometimes u have to give orders out firm & loud to a Pit so everyone can hear u “Once “.. I would hate to repeat myself ,Which means your not being taking seriously.. You still can talk with a good Strong Tone without being disrespectful..
