10 Useful Things I learned during my first 6 Months in Prison!
- Place your extra clothes under your super slim mattress to provide additional padding so your hip bones do not hurt as much in the morning.
- When someone swears at you and says they are going to kick your ass, walk the other way.
- It is not smart for a 63 year old to play flag football with 30 and 40 year old men.
- Never let your fellow prisoners know you were an attorney in your prior life. They will never stop pestering you with legal questions.
- If your cellie is bi-polar and uses a machine to control his snoring, you are probably going to have some issues.
- The guys in prison who act the toughest and make the most noise, are usually not very tough.
- Do not get in the habit of sharing your commissary purchases with your fellow inmates. If you do, you will find them at your locker every commissary day
- Avoid the television rooms in the evening if you can. They create more problems than enjoyment
- You do not have to be friends with all of your fellow prisoners nor should you be
- The less personal information you share with your fellow prisoners, the better off you will be. There is no confidentiality in prison.
