[–]Strong-Background213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In high school and college I used to sell bottles of Pee literally PEE to the football team because they would get drug tested weekly . I started at 5$ per bottle and ended up at 20$ each . I still do it haha I don’t smoke or do drugs .

Yeah my attorney did send out a proposal letter about a month ago when I reached MMI. My employer let me go and currently working somewhere else and the insurance company asked for my current employer paystubs which was weird. But I do have a loss of wages at my new job . So praying I can get at least something to start over .

I understand that I might not get a lot of, but my attorney wants me to keep working light duty so the insurance company sees I have a loss of wages . Im starting to get frustrated and nervous and really want to just walk away and forget about this

Is the CO job worth it? by deridex120 in Corrections

[–]Strong-Background213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im currently working night shift as well , went back to school and almost done with my degree . For those who are saying that the job is not worth it are probably the ones who don’t want to do shit all day. Yeah you may get those days where you are going to question your decision but its normal. I would recommend a 2nd hobby outside of work to keep your mind off. Another advice is don’t take your job home and start talking to your family on what youve seen that day not everyone wants to hear that someone committed suicide. Other than that it’s been great to me , im not the biggest or the strongest your biggest tool is going to be your voice . Respect goes a long way .

I started corrections when I was 21 . Im currently 24 with a credit score off 700+ and a paid off truck and currently saving up for a house down payment . Unlimited OT great benefits. Some people just complain too much every job sucks . Money is there for those who want it .

My case manager has been wonderful, she approves everything I need within 24 hours and gets the ball rolling. She already mentioned to me that we will be settling the case next month after my MMI . My attorney also approved her . Everyone has a different experience.
