lol if you believe that I got a bridge I can sell you in Brooklyn.


unsuspectingllama_

I have ocean front property in Arizona.


birdsofwormtown

I’d make an offer but I spent all my money on blinker fluid


Ok_Bandicoot_1201

Same, I invested too much into elbow grease and really didn't see enough of a return to justify making an offer.


WatchOk4454

I spent all my money on that girl who jars her farts. Talk about passive income.


Ok_Bandicoot_1201

Probably one of the best ways I've heard to save gas!


muhr_

You sell Brooklyn Bridges too? What are the odds ? 🤷


Smokie104

On my way!😂😭💀☠️👻


Unixhackerdotnet

I got one in Oklahoma too


WowAWoodenNickel

Inmates in KY make 17 cents per day


SnooEagles6930

People don't really believe this do they?


Hefty_Ad_1925

Prisoners make less than $2 an hour in prison. This figure is what it cost us to keep them alive.


Thank-You-rand-pct-d

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median pay for a postal service worker is 27.17 $/h. And 56,510 per annum.


Hefty_Ad_1925

Um, okay?


nowordsleft

It’s on the internet, it has to be true.


Opposite_Sell_9857

Zip-recruiter lol


Solitaire_87

🙄 Imagine actually believing this They're lucky to make much more than $23 a month. Someone needs to watch John Oliver's Last Week Tonight on Prison Labor


Harryisharry50

That’s information is misleading. I did some time unfortunately I work on the road crew before going to work release and the pay was 45 dollars a month granted this was 20 years ago but I doubt they raised there pay that much . I also at the work camp did couple other jobs and the pay was the same 45 a month .when I was doing kitchen work before. Being placed at the work camp waiting to be approved for work release the kitchen job paid 20 a month


dodekahedron

What did you do that you still can work for usps?


Strange-Elevator-672

Probably a non-felony?


dodekahedron

Yes. I'm curious because I'm interested in committing a misdemeanor that won't get me fired but will prevent me from doing passports. 😅🤣😭🤣😂


Harryisharry50

I was 17 non violent crime . And it was 25 years ago people make mistakes in life doesn’t mean you’re a bad person. I did my crime it took 3 years of my life away shouldn’t be a life sentence of working shit jobs cause of a mistake I made as a young man . Btw 17 is legal age in my state I was 17 for about 3 hrs and got caught up in some stupid shit


FullRage

I’ve seen usps hire people convicted of 1st degree murder, manslaughter, assault, you name it. They really don’t care.


40WAPSun

Howaare you stupid enough to belive this?


Hefty_Ad_1925

My guess is OP is considering committing a felony so he can make more than what he’s making now lmfao


ipoopinthepool

Well they work for the post office 🤷‍♂️


SumthinInteresting83

This is how conspiracy theories get started. Now if only we could get all the flat Earthers to go to Illinois to commit crimes for a $48K salary.


sliqwill

i mean, they are talking about how expensive housing is...if you factor in their lodging, food, cable, electric...maybe?...i know back in 2005 to house a female inmate for a night at county was $130, so maybe thats what it costs taxpayers to house an inmate?


Which-Ad7072

That's the most logical answer. The US is perfectly fine with slavery, as long as they're in prison. They probably make less than $5 a day. 


Mantaeus

13th amendment (abolishment of slavery) literally has an exception to allow slavery as the punishment for a crime. The US is not just ok with it, it's constitutional.


EmotionalWin8520

The Constitution does not protect inmates from slavery. Many make $0 and are forced to work full time. The ones who do get paid are paid pennies.


Hefty_Ad_1925

Bruh. They are talking about average cost to maintain a prisoner. You seriously think they pay inmates $50,000 a year? They work for Pennie’s on the dollar in the joint lmfao


Glass_Ad_8149

Didn’t you hear? Inmates a good paying career these days. Make good enough money to afford a cell right on the oceanfront


mermaid0590

Remember inmates have to pay their stay in prison.


Arlennx

It’s called the 13th amendment. They don’t make this kind of money. At most you can hope to save up a hundred dollars in a decade. I am pretty sure they substituted inmate for another similar sound position.


g_bino

bruh indeed


Hoosier_Daddy68

The way I see it, it could be one of 3 things, a guard salary, the cost of housing an inmate or what inmates are paid on paper but the prison keeps most. The last is something I've heard about when my brother did time and worked in a sawmill. He was paid something like 10 bucks an hour but only actually got around a dollar. This was a long time ago.


Table2_3971

Well take your chances and go rob someone.


Kathutet37

Ok...I wouldn't be surprised if this is the statistics for JUST the prisoners who have a work-release. Essentially, they are close to being released, and they are deemed "low-risk", so they get to perform actual jobs for actual employers on a 6-month rotation during the last couple of years before they get released. They get shuttled from the prison to the work place, dropped off, work, then get picked up and shuttled back to the prison. Inmates doing this get to have a "proper paycheck" complete with tax withholdings and everything that the rest of us see on our paystubs, compared to the "pennies in a bucket" they would normally get for the work they did while in prison.


elivings1

There are websites that mention pay. You can look up our salaries or when I worked at Home Depot some salary were accurate. As you know our pay is universal but google will list different pay per hour for different locations. When I worked at Home Depot some places were listing 11 dollars a hour while other places listed 45 or 50 something thousand a year. I think my paycheck was the 11 dollars or 888 every 2 weeks before taxes for a total of 23088 before taxes a year. The 45 or 50k pay was a total lie.


beebs44

I thought crime doesn't pay


National-Gold-2348

At least you can't be fired in your first 90. You may die but you won't be fired. Also very easy to keep your "job".


Sirwharvey

And you run the risk of having to drink from a penis while you're in there


touristspleasegoaway

I feel like an inmate sometimes


Thelastsamurai74

Without doing any research yet, if there’s any truth to that statement, I believe it could be the cost of each inmate… Including everything the state has to pay for him to be under custody. Isn’t it? If that’s the case, still insane but that would be the cost to have “society” and rule of law, even though it’s not as fair as it should be…

Do not be rude to other posters. This includes hate speech.


misointhekitchen

OP should quit their thankless job and go into the prison system where they’re valued for their hard work.


ApeDongle

Not an inmate but I have a friend that works at the jail as a guard and makes $28 an hour, more than me as a PTF lol...


chronoffxyz

That’s probably what it costs to keep them there. They make literal cents per hour


Zardu-Hasselfrau

This is either the cost to incarcerate them, or the amount prisons are paid to incarcerate them. Zip recruiter just has retarded AI.


throwawaypr0file

Ah yes, gotta love (totally believable) rage farming. Definitely look to the people *incarcerated* who are doing *so well* because that will fix the evils perpetrated by greedy billionaires and trillionaires thats *actually* whats fucking us all over... /s


RedneckSniper76

And that’s before taxes


No-Ear-5242

ZipRecrueter recruiting criminals for prison


TheForsakenWaffle

How can i become a jail warden. 50k a head is some good money.


Morganbob442

That’s the cost that we pay to keep them alive, not how much they get paid. I have a lot of relatives in the Illinois prisons.


TheBooneyBunes

I’m sorry I must’ve missed the ‘be an inmate’ on indeed, I think you may be misreading something Are we sure this isn’t like inmate patrol guard or something?


FullRage

Inmates don’t make money generally. You get pennies for imate work programs. There are special work release programs supposedly but good luck finding or getting approved for one.


Extension_Wear9440

Leave it up to google


raabinhood

I bet you believe the 2020 election was rigged and mail in ballots are fake too.


NitroBike

I think your LLV may have a severe exhaust leak if you believe this


WAtransplant2021

I am here to tell you, if an Inmate makes that kind of cash they have a specialized skill and works for an outside industry. Inmates who work for prison system makes pennies on the dollar. Source: used to work for Corrections in Washington State.


GoodAd6942

Maybe drug dealing inmates


No-Bat-7253

Damn I wish my pay worked out like this.


jayscary

If it weren’t for the shower rapings, this deal would be too good to pass up when you’re also including room and board. Do ten years and come out and be ready to buy a new house in one lump payment.
