Having spent a few months as a federal employee I would have been surprised if the guard had not falsified the bi hourly cell checklist.
When working mandatory double shifts the first thing to suffer is non daily inspected requirements. Just a shot in the dark but wanna bet it is a purely paper record which is never digitized.
All in same color and penmanship. Think the inmates are going to tell management they had less supervision?
At my work, doors are locked, and you need to wave your ID card at the reader to open. A byproduct is it maintains a log of people’s movements. In a prison, you would expect every hallway and section to have a security door.
It would be trivially easy to write a program to monitor guards movement, and to send an alert to managers if there was lack of prescribed activity.
Yup. One of my first factory jobs was in receiving inspection where we were supposed to check X amount of parts from each skid.
Well, it sounded good on paper but it would have taken an army of inspectors to check all the required parts.
I was trained to just record varying numbers to make the paper work look good. Then we played cards the rest of the shift.
