People
who wind up in prison often learn skills while they're locked up to
help them get a job when they finish their sentence, but a felony on
your record reduces your job options to virtually nil.
So ex-cons
are often forced to take whichever job they can get, and all that
training on the inside ironically ends up being worthless on the outside
due to their criminal record.
Writer and ex-con Seth Ferranti
spoke with other ex-cons about the worst jobs they've had since they
got out, and their answers were bad but not quite as bad as you'd
expect.
Seth
thought being a sauté cook sucked, but after talking to a guy who
worked eleven hours a day cleaning cow crap, a guy who picked up trash
at the city dump and, worst of all, a telemarketer he discovered cooking
ain't so bad after all!
