Overworking Staff

Just a quick one here.  I saw this comment on a thread on Corrections.com, in reply to a question about whether or not it's normal to have no breaks on a full shift while working in a prison:

"At Idaho Correctional Center, run by CCA, we work 12-16 hour shifts and are not allotted breaks of any sort." (emphasis added). 

And yes, that would be the same Idaho Correctional Center which is currently the target of a multiple-hundred-million dollar lawsuit because the violence there is so pervasive it's called "Gladiator School" by those unlucky enough to find themselves housed there.
