    I have never been to prison. My friend went for a job interview in one in 1994ish for a job teaching drama. I told her she was daft. She realised when the prisoners started saying 'fresh meat' as she walked along the corridoor! Yikes.

    Dude i am so sorry i have to ask. Are you a regular person?

    It's what fibre does for me...
    Do you do a 'traditionally conventional' job,

    Just about.
    OMG you are not an undertaker or anything are you?

    I have never met an undertaker before. Why do they do it? how much do they earn?

    I was asked out by a forensic pathologist once. I had to say no. Can you imagine conversations would consist of who did you chop up today dear??? yuk.

    It's the Youth Offenders institutes that sadden me more than the prisons. You need to be of a *certain mindset* to be able to work in them. My History tutor took us around as she had a group there( open prison) They were really good and it was an eye opening experience.

    Same reasons everyone works: money. Though it's a dying trade...

    You would never get conversations like that - they very rarely take their work home with them.

    One of the boys in my lessons wants to take steroids so he pulls. He was looking up prices on his phone in class today. He was genuine. I had to talk him round hope it worked. I will have to make sure he does work in class with a pretty girl to convince him he is fine. Poor flower.

    That was my first career choice, i did some work experience in Forensic labs. I find it fascinating, especially pathology. One of my son's friends is an undertaker, he is lovely.

    Doesn't bother me in the slightest..i even went out with one:D:rotfl:

    Thanks Mr Z. I think i would rather be dead than have gone out with him anyway.

    I used to be a real left wing socialist one of the things that has swayed my views a little was the racist neighbours i lived next door too. Her OH used to smash my windows and my walls down. I wouldn't want to meet him and his family again. Even the 6 year old was done for lighting fires! Isn't that what you find in YOI's? Do tell i honestly dont know. Bob, if I am tiring you out please say and i will go.
