Thanks, I appreciate your input. I was born and raised in Rochester, NY. Other than having lived in Auburn for a little over 3 years when I first took the job with Corrections, I have lived in the Utica area, and now Rome, NY since 1983. Rochester has been a $hithole for many years now. Even the suburbs have gotten bad. Working in New York State Corrections taught me a lot. It wasn’t the type of job you could come home from, and feel like you accomplished anything, but it gave me good insight into criminals, their habits, and it forced me to view my surrounding areas in a whole new light. Even in the podunk city of Rome, I’m still vigilant when I go out, and at 72, I never go out after dark...anywhere.
