When you start comparing the differences between the joint and the office, sometimes an orange jumpsuit’s a better choice than a suit and tie.

Ever feel like your cubicle or office is a jail cell? Well, it’s not. A jail cell’s probably better. Here are some interesting comparisons pulled from around the Internet:

• In prison, you get time off for good behavior. At work, you get rewarded for good behavior — with more work.
• In prison, a guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you. At work, you have to carry around a security card and open all of the doors yourself.
• In prison, you spend the majority of your time in an 8-by-10 cell. At work, you spend most of your time in a 6-by-8 cubicle.
• In prison, you get three square meals a day. At work, you only get a break for one meal — and you have to pay for it.
• In prison, you usually get your own toilet. At work, you have to share.
• In prison, your friends and family are allowed to visit. At work, you can’t speak to your family or friends because it’ll distract everyone else.
• In prison, all expenses are paid by taxpayers with little work required. At work, you have to pay expenses just to get to work, and once you’re there, they deduct taxes from your salary … to pay for prisons.
• In prison, you spend most of your time looking through bars from inside wanting to get out. At work, you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars.
• Finally, in prison, there are wardens who are notoriously sadistic. At work, they’re called “supervisors.”

Ever noticed how similar your office is to another, less-than-ideal place? Let us know in the comments section below.

For officers at Missouri’s St. Louis County Jail, it was stuffed behind the tissue dispenser in the prisoner booking restroom. A jail employee found $55,000 in $50 and $100 bills when the dispenser became dislodged during a routine cleaning.

Prison officials are baffled — not only was the restroom in a secure location of the facility, but the funds would’ve had to come from an incoming prisoner.

Officials have interviewed a number of prisoners at the jail, including those who were booked on or before the discovery of the hidden cache, but none admitted to knowing anything about it. They’re also still unsure whether the funds are connected to any recent robberies or thefts.

The city’s attorney is researching what should be done with the money if no one comes forward with information. Here’s a thought — fix the giant hole left in the bathroom.
