Interview with Mary
JM: Did you find it difficult to get along with other inmates?
Mary: At first I did. At first it was really hard to
get
anyone to talk to me. usually I got dirty looks,
snide comments and rude remarks. I hardly made
any
friends the first week I was in there. After a
while, i got a few people to talk to me and then
it was smooth sailing after that in this aspect,
because having friends in there is really
important. Not only do they help occupy your time
and make it go by faster but they also look out
for you and will have your back if anything
happens.
JM: What types of things did you have to do to avoid problems or fights with other inmates?
Mary: I had to watch my mouth mainly. I'm the type of
person who wont think twice about opening my
mouth
and speak my mind but I realized that I could not
do that in there or else someone wouldn't think
twice about clobbering me.
JM: Were you able to choose an inmate if you knew one?
Mary: I was not able to choose an inmate. I do not
understand what this question is all about.
