Homewrecker (2010)
Work release is when
you're a non violent felony, and you go there, and you gotta find a job To live there is something cause you go back there every night, you get searched, it's like getting rearrested again Cause you get searched every time you go in there Like, I would work there like 6: 30 and have to be in by 9 o'clock, On Sunday, every time you got church, they let you go out but you didn't even go to church, I went to the movies or something. But, I work six days a week, so I get to stay out... cause you don't want to stay in that dorm all dry, let me tell you. On holidays, you had to stay in there all dry if you didn't work. And then they take money out of your check, too. I used... I... I... For staying there. You had to pay to stay in work release.
