Get up at 5 o'clock in the morning, have dinner, do morning exercises, then go out to work at work, and come back to eat and sleep at night. Others who don't go out to work can go to the recreation room to play cards, watch TV, play basketball and read books, as long as they stay in their own prison area. Billiards is usually open for one hour at noon, and everyone can make a phone call once a week for up to 20 minutes. Go to bed at night 10, and leave the lights on. Improve your life once a month. Usually, the food is similar to the university cafeteria, but there is only one. The prison will also organize some activities, such as various cards, ball games, chess competitions, poetry competitions and singing competitions.
In short, it's not as scary as it is on TV, that is, there is no freedom, the scope of activities is small, and activities are limited. If you want to work, everything else is ok. Accommodation in prisons in big cities is even worse. Except that the detention room is a small room, the accommodation in other places is generally not much different from the university dormitory. The specific situation should be combined with the local economy and the nature of work.
