Imagine that your boss is also your prison guard, and that his pay and bonuses are not paid based on being a prison guard but on your output. As someone who was in the Feds and and who saw the people around him forced to work even with severe injuries, sickness, COVID, because they had to meet the UNICOR contract that said they would deliver X widgets, it is literal slavery. Our COVID rules were based around UNICOR output not good COVID guidance, to the point the CDC had to take over running the prison. You can not complain, or you will be put in a cell with very intimidating guys, and your cell will be shaken down every day because you are in it and are causing trouble, which will be make clear to your cellies, and your cellies will 'have a talk' with you about causing trouble. If you continue, you will get 'diesel therapy'. Sure, you have access to the courts, once your diesel therapy is over, and 10 months later the court will start to respond, the BOP will say they changed XYZ, the court will say in that case the inmates challenge is now moot and rule against you. There was a very good LT (cop of lieutenant level) (strict, super cop type, but he followed the rules and you knew what you got, which is what you want in prison) transferred to UNICOR. He quit the BOP prior to getting his very very generous retirement package because he could no longer accept how UNICOR treated people (not inmates, people).
