Re: Discrimination?
Well, I worked in a Federal prison for a while, not as a guard but as a clerk. However, I did worked in a unit, and I had to walk through the yard and a housing area to get to my office, as well as supervise prisoners who worked for me.
There were many female guards, and I would guess that the reason that they wanted those jobs was the same reason that I wanted mine. The paycheck. There are not too many jobs that a woman without an education can get that pays comparable salaries to men and women. And COs make decent money.
