監所管理員,這工作從來不會出現在「我的志願」。 

阿豪原本有機會成為跆拳道國手,因傷退役後沈迷賭博還欠債,只能服從債主命令,到獄中工作為老大當暗樁。關係戶老鳥姜一傑,做事死板只想升官。毒舌社工潔宇到點下班,對囚犯的煩惱嗤之以鼻。法律系的魚仔連連落榜,只想混口飯吃再戰國考。彈頭剛從國外打工度假回來,為了房租不得不工作。小惠為家人返鄉工作,每天笑臉迎人,卻有不為人知的煩惱。

這些職場新鮮人,迫不得已到監獄工作後,馬上面臨震撼教育:鎮暴時挨揍、檢身被屎噴、輔導囚犯到一半對方鬧自殺……原以為在監獄裡工作威風輕鬆,其實得對上級哈腰,還要對囚犯客氣,工作人員們的地位連犯人都不如。

保守僵化的體制天天衝擊著這些菜鳥新人,靠著友情的力量和對愛情的嚮往,他們彼此扶持,堅定信念,努力撐下去。

Prison administrators, a job never on my “wish list”.

Ah Hao, a former potential Taekwondo champion, retired due to injury and fell into gambling and debt. Now he’s compelled to work undercover for his creditors in the prison. Jiang Yi Jie, a seasoned insider, only cares about promotions and follows a rigid approach. Blunt social worker Jie Yu always finishes work on the dot, disdainful of prisoners’ troubles. Law graduate Yu Zai keeps failing exams and just wants to make ends meet. Tan Tou, who recently returned from working abroad, is compelled to work to pay the rent. Xiao Hui works in her hometown with a smile, yet carries undisclosed worries.

These rookies in the workplace, are immediately confronted with shocking experiences: getting beaten during riots, being sprayed with excrement during body searches, and having inmates attempt suicide halfway through counseling sessions. They initially thought working in a prison would be easy and commanding, but they soon realize they have to grovel to their superiors and be polite to the prisoners. Even inmates have higher status than them.

The rigid system challenges these newcomers daily. Through friendship and a longing for love, they support one another, hold onto their beliefs, and strive to endure.
