“[They] have proven and shown the ability to effectively function and perform the job duties in the highest level expected. These benevolent staff have proven to be extremely knowledgeable and consistent in their position.”

He goes on to say, “they have carried themselves in such a professional way that it has earned them the respect of their co-workers and detainees.”
