Episode 47 - Restaurant Job

The Road Less Traveled ·

2024/10/18

On this week's episode I talk about my time working at a restaurant while I was incarcerated. Did you know there's work release program's for felon's? They may be working among you right now... It's not as scary as you think.

This episode is about the work release program at the minimum security facility that I was housed at; the in's and out's of the program; the humbling process of interviewing and explaining where I am and what I've done; and the scary, emotional journey that is trying to reintegrate into society. Thank you for listening. -db
