I was a correctional officer at my parish’s (county for non-Louisiana people) prison for a year. Then I moved to Texas and bounced between state jail and super max prison, again only for another year though. It’s really not bad, even with a stutter. Most of the offenders (modern term for inmates) won’t care if you stutter as long as you treat them with respect. I found the biggest problems were egotistical co workers whose actions made life much harder for both the offenders and other correctional officers
