Knew a guy once who worked in that same job.

He was later arrested for drug-dealing.

Definitely something amiss there. I'm not sure why having an addiction would lead you to want to be around other addicts, so I can't imagine that it's that way around.

It must be that being around addicts makes you want to try it.

(For instance, if you were a paedophile, say, I could understand the logic of you wanting to work somewhere you could get close to children... a school or a youth club or a church or whatever. But just working in those places wouldn't *make* you into a paedophile, at least as far as the statistics go).

Most pedophiles who don't want to offend stay as far away from kids as possible. I have seen some guys say they move out in the middle of nowhere to avoid it. Or they don't go around any child accept nieces and nephews because they know they won't hurt them.

The ones who really don't want to offend avoid it.
