correctional officer = loser = who really cares?
With that kind of attitude towards the working class, you must be a member of the Trump family. Donny? Eric?
The person was a correctional officer, not a working person. Suggest you read the article a little more carefully.
No one cares about the union crying. they knew the risk when they took the job.
yep, and they do have a job unlike your lazy a$$
A VERY UNGRATEFUL JOB
Any job s better than none, and idk what they’re paid but it should be worth the risks. Hell, let’s just admit that in this day and age there aren’t many jobs out in the world without risks.
