I know a lady who works in a prision libray. She has been there years. She tells them nothing she treats them with respect no matter what, she puts up with no abuse they treat her like a lady or they no longer can come to the libray. Nobody swears in her libray nobody.
But she lives in fear every day. She doesn't show it but she lives in fear every day. Most of those fears comes from the government changing laws. The new law that there is no smoking allowed at all is her biggest worry yet. Some of those people are there for life been there 40 or more years and are expected to quit smoking like that.
They can buy the meds to stop but hey lets face it at under $ a hour and having to pay for everything else you get do you really think they will be able to afford the over $100. a month, nope. This new change is going to result in a lot of hurt workers. As the withdrawls increase so will the violence. I can see making them pay their way but not at the expense of possiable injury to the workers. Give them the meds and then ween them off.
Good luck on the job just demand respect and show no fear. Don't put up with anything, but stay calm and show respect while you don't put up with anything.
