Читать книгу Prison Puzzle Pieces - Dave Basham - Страница 29

I was asked, why write a section about me? I was a unique corrections officer in my mindset and how I approached the job. By informing you a bit about me, you might be better able to understand the decisions that I made. When a decision seems ludicrous, knowing a bit about my life up until the point that I started working at the prison, might make my decisions more understandable. People have asked me how I could place myself in an environment like that every day and continue to exist as a normal person. The fact is that a normal person cannot exist in a prison and stay normal. The normal ones leave. Those that realize they are not normal are able to exist in this dysfunctional environment if their dysfunctions line up well with the strange situations that need to be dealt with.
