The dramatized version of Jeffrey Dahmer's life shows him getting a job in a blood plasma clinic in Milwaukee. While there he furtively gets hold of a bag of blood and sidles up to the roof, where he proceeds to consume it.
This isn't strictly accurate. It's true that after being discharged from the military, where, according to AP, he worked as a Germany-based Army medic between 1979 and 1981, he got a job as a phlebotomist in a plasma clinic. His discharge from the army happened due to accusations of alcohol abuse. After leaving, he got a job in a delicatessen, but was thrown out of the hotel he was lodging in for not paying the rent, as stated by Newsweek. He had stints living with his father and stepmother as well as his aunt, punctuated by trouble with the law; only a week after he moved in with his family, he was arrested for public disorder related to his drinking. Dahmer was fined $60 and given a 10-day jail sentence, which was suspended. It wouldn't be the first time he was arrested on this basis.
When he moved in with his aunt, Dahmer started working in the Milwaukee Blood Plasma Center. Yet surprisingly for a future cannibal, Dahmer did not initially like the taste of blood. Rather than drinking a whole bag of it, he took some from the blood plasma clinic where he worked, trying a vial before spitting it out (via Milwaukee Journal Sentinel).
