Guess what this is?
Guess what this is ???
(scroll down for answer)
It’s a new Prison in UK!
Prison vs Work
Just in case you ever get these two environments mixed up, this should make things a little bit clearer.
@ PRISON - You spend the majority of your time in a 10X10 cell
@ WORK - you spend the majority of your time In an 6X6 cubicle /office
@ PRISON - You get three meals a day fully paid for
@ WORK - you get a break for one meal and
You have to pay for it
@ PRISON -You get time off for good behavior
@ WORK - you get more work for Good behavior
@ PRISON - The guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you
@ WORK - You must often carry a security card And open all the doors for yourself
@ PRISON -You can watch TV and play games
@ WORK - you could get fired for watching TV and playing games
@ PRISON - You get your own toilet
@ WORK - you have to share the toilet with Some people who pee on the seat
@ PRISON - They allow your family and friends to visit
@ WORK -you aren't even supposed to speak
To your family
@ PRISON - All expenses are paid by the taxpayers with no work required
@ WORK - you get to pay all your expenses to goTo work, and they deduct taxes fromYour salary to pay for prisoners
@ PRISON - You spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out
@ WORK - you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars
@ PRISON - You must deal with sadistic wardens
@ WORK - They are called managers
Now get back to work. You're not getting paid to check emails.

Re: Guess what this is?
I suppose I meant from the other thread - never mind - crossed wires or something! 
Yeah the email I got was the UK too, meant to incite some kind of revolution or something
- but I still laughed and thought I would share it. However, it is a prison in Austria, (spartacus link) so therefore better than where we currently live, and its a prison!!! Scary or what!!! So, yes, it still riles me.
Austria being that country where that madman imprisoned his daughter for 24 years in his cellar and raped her countless times - maybe he will get to go there? Who knows, the law is an ass!
