found that the workplace, it was relatively diverse based on what I have observed. The Department of Corrections is a large range of people that have different strengthens and qualification and they work together so that work flows and they are able to complete each tour safely. Thus, creating a workplace that has the best team and positive atmosphere. The work that I had to complete on each day depends on what control I was assigned to. There were many days that were so busy with numerous alarms, these days were so stressful to the point where can see it on the correction officer faces. Observing the visits was probably the most enjoyable part of my entire work experience at George R. Vierno Center, it was incredible to see how well officers worked together to control the safety of both themselves and inmates.
I learned a lot more than I thought I would be able to in the limited time span. The stimulating presentation and conversations with correctional professionals and former offenders has been incredibly beneficial to me since I had no concept of what went on in the correctional facilities. My hard work paid off, I will be joining the boldest team in June 2017. I am upbeat and pleased that I have finished my course and I can now graduate and now call myself a correction
