BREAKING: Alabama sheriff: Escaped inmates tricked guard into opening door by covering its number in peanut butter.

There was a prison guard here in town who died trying to swallow a live fish so they aren't the brightest bulbs.  I wonder what sort of tests they need to take to be considered for the position.

"Can you read the part that says 'Print name'"

"Yes"

"You're hired".

Shortly after I got my AD in Criminal Justice, and before I lost enough weight to join the military....I had applied to be a corrections officer.

Chalk that up along with a TSA screener (in their big initial ramp-up after 9/11), as another job I am glad I did not get.

Dude, you never want to be a CO.  Ever.

I know you want more threads, Tim, but come on...

a new hire was monitoring the jail via closed-circuit video in a control room when the inmates asked him to open a door.

Earlier, the inmates used peanut butter to hide the door number that identified the outside door. When the employee hit the button he believed would open a cell door, the door to the outside opened

Which begs the question: Why wasn't the button labeled?
