What kind of part-time jobs are there in a county jail?

I’m 17 years old and I think it would be so cool to work in a jail. Is there part-time jobs available for someone like me in a county jail, like serving food to the inmates or something??

Probably not, considering they are run by the government (which does not like to hire minors). Besides, why would you want to work in a jail? I personally fail to see the draw of working with people who would not respect me day in and day out. But that part is your choice, so, again, I doubt that they would hire you, as you are a minor.

    I am a retired police officer. I retired as a sergeant, after 29 years, from a very large department, about 12,000 officers. I was a patrol officer for 4 years in a very diverse area. I was a tactical officer in the high rise project areas of my city. We called it vertical patrol in that we walked the the stairways of the high rises most of the time. I did that for 5 years and was promoted by test to detective. I worked violent crime (homicide, sex, officer involved shootings, robbery, kidnapping, serious non property incidents) for 11 years until I was promoted to sergeant. I worked as a street supervisor, a bicycle patrol supervisor and a desk sergeant/watch commander.
    During my time as a tactical officer and a detective I was a unit representative for the police union.
    I have a B.A in English and an M.S. in Law Enforcement Administration
