The upshot of this glorious position is that, as she describes, she gets to see a lot of the prisoners as they're being brought in, and according to her they flirt with her incessantly.

I find this dubious, as she's frightfully revolting, but perhaps junkies and prisoners have lower expectations.

Sidenote - these are not murders and serial killers... she went on at length today about how a lot of the people they bring in are idiots filing phony police reports to get themselves arrested because they're bored and can't think of anything better to do.

...damn, I live in an abysmal city.
On a side note, that sounds like a career tailor made for Ol' Batty. Not the horny prisoners, the not doing anything for seven hours and forty minutes and getting paid.
