Noise Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Congratulations Steve, its a massive culture shock tho and the first few weeks are a litte tough to adjust into "your own" routine. Hopefully your find a new job easy enough but i can truly say that even tho the Mob satisfaction wears off there is never a civvy job that compares to the satisfaction that the mob jobs give you deep down. I'd give anything to be back with my pongos, regret every day since i was fubar'd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pignapper Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Good luck with the future mate. Top tip DO NOT even contemplate joining HM Prison service alot of ex service men did in the 80s and 90s and it was great back then. Now you would be better on the streets its an awful job now. After 20yrs im about to leave and join MOD in a civvy role. Avoid like the plague. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike1949 Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 The way I look at it Steve is if I had stayed in for the duration (22 years) I most likely would be on a good pension now. BUT, I wouldn't have met my wife whom I have been with for over forty years and had my two most beautiful kids that I could ever wish for.

If not for hmp i wouldnt have met my wife or had my girls but although a scary thought, moving on could be the best decision.
