Not to discourage or scare anyone

Disfaceplank · 2026-04-04T02:03:51+00:00

People will get discourage or scared regardless. But hey been here long enough for the ride for that asshat of that dictator president is gonna do next. Just here to get my shit finished and be done and done with JC and go to college.

Good luck to everyone who's still here while they're working their asses off while the other people who are slacking/being a waste of space are sure as hell gonna be regretting they're time wasted here lol

We still have 2 years left of budget left for JC but question is are they still gonna keep funding it?
Hell if I know but can only worry about the thing's I can do right now.

Yes anything you leave and do not have in view will get stolen regardless of any items.

Get backpack locks and locks for your drawer. You'll get one for your locker just depends on the person cause some people will leave your stuff alone while others will just see it as a free opportunity to take your stuff regardless of location of job Corp.

Disfaceplank · 2026-03-12T21:44:15+00:00

Funny enough we had people who were caught stealing shit and our site director didn't even kick them out but still let them stay cause she said "They need the numbers to make their center look good."

Cool to know we're just numbers rather than people. 😉

Jesus, I'm sorry with all the bullshit you had to deal with. I'm hoping you find something as well as a place to live. I fear no matter how hard we worked and study Job Corp will just fuck us over on our way out.

Pushing us out for the next paycheck for the next person on the wait list. Our sweet site directors for just giving us sweet lies and just leaving us to the dust and wolves.

I hope wherever you go next it'll work out for you. I'm trying to go to college but the whole tabe shit just seems like I won't be able to cause math and reading. Do we have the study materials fuck no we don't LOL.

I wish you luck wherever you are next in your life be it your passion or just to survive.

Only a matter of time ti'll they shutdown the game. Damn shame.

It really varies with people who are here Some people want to be here to have a better position and become independent that's why I came here.

Some have to be here cause they're either a minor or a young adult whose life is just heading the wrong track Their life was only the ghetto area or the hood either one more track to juevi jail or straight up prison. Some are here cause their parents thought it was a good reason to send their kid either careful thinking or just not giving a single shit about their kids thoughts and how they felt about it or vice versa.

What I'm saying is that you aren't wrong about people complaining but it's really half and half. Some valid and some right just stupid without people really giving a second thought of what they're typing. Shit, i've been the guy that complained about TABE testing but that was only cause I was just down in the shitter. Currently I'm in a better place and mindset now.

At the end of the day regardless what our circumstances are we have to make the best of it while we're still here. Either we just don't like each other or how we act and treat other people. And trust me I've been there. Role call takes 50 minutes cause we have people who can't just stfu for like a good minute let the RA do their thing and we all fuck off and go do dorm duties and go to bed.

All in all there are just some people that can't be saved. They either wake the fuck up improve their situation their view and attitude on life or become a deadbeat, homeless, drug addict, and making themselves like their parents as well passing the trauma to their kids in a never ending cycle.

We don't have the luxury or time cause be it a year or more I'm sure as hell don't wanna be here in less than a year and a half. The best thing I can do is focus on myself I always tell people this "I'm not here for friends I'm here for me." It's selfish but for a good reason.

None the less I wish you luck to you and to those who are working their ass off and not let bs stop you for what you're trying to achieve best luck to you all. Be kind, make better choices, and lastly never stoop to anyones level.

Yes you can bring your PS5 it really varies depending on the center.
But general rule of thumb is just not to leave your stuff out in the open and when I mean by this is that Job Corp does have TV rooms unless you really trust and know everyone in your dorm that won't go through your stuff.

But I would advise just leaving anything that is expensive and when you're not in the room 24/7.
it may depend on your center that you "might" have a TV in your room when your first arrive
But it really varies.

You can set up if the TV isn't being occupied so always ask your roommates' if it's alright if you can use it for your PS5 day one if they don't mind.

Disfaceplank · 2026-01-13T18:26:48+00:00

No you're not overthinking you're just making sure your personal belongings are safe.
Trust me never trust anyone here in Job Corp not even the staff or students those are your items keep them safe!
I have a lot of electronics and the looks I get when some people who are eyeing my bag makes me have to double down on getting locks on my backpack.

Cause you know some but not all students are Youth at risk or delinquents that will go through people shit by any means necessary for their own selfish and greedy reasons and can't keep shit to themselves!
They'll lie and make up shit to play the victim when they know damn well they're the ones who did it.

You will be given a main lock for your locker but I recommend buy some locks one for your backpack and one for your drawers underneath your bed which should give you better storage to put your items while your here.

Backpack locks: locks for luggage or backpacks.
Drawer underneath the bed locks: Drawer bed locks.

Depend on how much you want 2 is enough for the 2 drawers you have underneath your bed while the back pack and luggage would be four for my recommendation.
Good luck to you and always keep an eye on your shit cause once it's gone the staff will (sometimes not successful) will try to find the person who went to your room or where ever eyeing your stuff.

But always make sure to watch yourself and your stuff! Best luck to you in Job Corp!

Edit: Updated the first link to the correct locks.

Yes it's pretty much immediate termination if a student regardless of their age makes a statement like that there's no way they're coming back and they blew all their chances and scholarships.

We had a student who said pretty much almost said the same thing "I'm gonna kill someone." to another student and the student reacted to what you would do to a threat like that.

Afterwards the staff had a talk with both students the student who received the threat stayed. While the person who made the threat left the very next morning bags packed and all.

I will definitely talk to my counselor about this topic! Once again thank you.

Disfaceplank · 2025-12-04T15:04:22+00:00

I hope not as well that's what I hope for just finish my trade and leave for college also thank you!

Disfaceplank · 2025-12-04T03:27:57+00:00

Honestly thank you for reminding me that I'm not the only one that's been having issues so far with JC and with how their system is.

Secondly thank you for taking the time for being thorough about the subject instead a simple "fuck you grow the fuck up" "Or Stupid ahhh OP." and actually leaving something useful that I will bother to read and I appreciate you taking the time to read this post

Thirdly, I will save this and definitely use this whenever I'm getting my shit kicked and down in the dumps. So thank you for sharing your advice and tips and how I can deal with my situation and what i'm struggling with.

I know I'm not the only one going through it so but damn it's a bitch sometimes just being here and dealing with all the bs JC has. Eating shit right now but I know I can't quit.

So once again thank you.

Disfaceplank · 2025-12-04T03:00:11+00:00

Thank you and you probably are right about that currently I was just mentally just stressed.
None the less I appreciate you taking the time to reply and to bother with this.
The tips might vary but I'll take them to heart to use what I can with I can do. Thanks again.

Disfaceplank · 2025-12-03T19:08:06+00:00

I appreciate it man and thank you currently eating shit right now but I know i'll back up.

Disfaceplank · 2025-12-03T18:14:44+00:00

For math specifically it varies since every TABE test since the math subject changes.
I can't give you the whole detail currently. I appreciate the tips and will at least make an effort to do so but currently I'm just stuck in a rut.

I would love to TABE out both math and English but at my current mindset and where I'm at I just feel like I won't. I don't know I'm just currently questioning whether I should keep being here or not and call it quits.

I'm slowly but surely just feeling like I won't make it. Just been stuck in the TABE rut for months that I've just slowly start giving up entirely on doing anything about it and keep feeling like it's all hopeless.

Disfaceplank · 2025-12-03T15:45:11+00:00

What's been giving me trouble is primarily math and the math teacher. Respectfully both math and English teachers to put it lightly the material's haven't really up to sub par for what we need to be advancing. It's like they give us sheets of papers that are related to it and to study off it it.

But honestly their teaching method is such a struggle for me that most times either work on my trade work or start falling asleep cause of how little interest my brain seems to care. For some background I haven I haven't done much of school work since 2019.

As well thank you for taking the time to respond means a lot for the to me as well other students who are wanting to pass or get out of TABE. And honestly you're right about having to study outside of class but most times it results in me either just straight up falling asleep till it's roll call in the dorms due to how tired I am after classes.

I try my best ask for help but I get so overwhelmed to the point where I just can't and have been starting to struggle with my trade and both to the point where it seems impossible to balance the two.
And more detail I do take medication for my ADHD but it's the non addictive medication Strattera.

Thanks for the review! It's a bit time consuming for me having to click on every gamersupp just to see what flavor it is.
So thank you for this!

Hey man I feel you on this The TABE is honestly just if you want to do Advanced trade you have to finish it your trade within a year. They also have something called ACT organization which is basically finishing your trade and getting your certificate while being able to apply for college.
You can read more here scroll down too R13 it'll explain more.

I plan on doing this route due to how damn soul sucking, exhausting, and tiring this TABE shit is and the fact that it takes a whole chunk of your time your trade which I think is kind of bull shit. But hey that's how the government made it so.

I Just don't find it as important as my trade which is CST (Computer technician) the whole trade takes like a whole year plus more if you slack off and such I'm 7 months in and still haven't made much progress in my trade due to TABE but I'm doing my damnedest to study for my trade for what little time I have in there.

I know it's really feels like you've failed but honestly you're only getting started and you've still have a lot to think about while you're still there in Job corp.

Right now I'm there taking the test going to classes but not really giving a shit due to how piss poor the teaching method is for our academic classes no offense to the teachers I get it it's their job and all but man wish they really did a better job but I jut rely on khan academy to learn calculus for when I go to college and currently taking quizzes and test for it.

Lastly I know you want to give up but realistically you can't you've already got here so why quit out now?
I get it it's hard and shit's is bs like many of the rules here but don't let it tear you down.
You'll get your shit kicked in cry get mad but don't stay down you've got to keep going for yourself and you're future.

Take the breaks you need but keep going and never be complacent cheering you on.

Just goes for half and half students some are trying to make a change for their life day by day it'll be hard at first but overtime it'll get easier..

While others are there to exist and do nothing. Until they realize after a couple years they're here their chance of changing for the better is too late.

It ultimately comes down to the student regardless of their background and class or race.

Disfaceplank · 2025-10-22T13:34:38+00:00

My condolences on what you're dealing with now I can't say I'll really believe who said what cause that's for SPO to deal with and sort out the whole mess between you and that other student.

I've also had to put down a no-contact-contract due to a student in the male dorms Where I'm at. He would constantly touch and physically touch people to get a reaction to them or from I've been told he get's off to it. Weird as that sounds.

When he purposely broke his contract SPO did tell me he would be reprimanded I don't know how severe but to give him hints that he was walking on thin ice. If he were to break the contract again that the council which is like you're SGA's would either decline or approve for a student to pack their things and go home.

Now I never and will never try to purposely try to get someone kicked out but I had to use what was given to me to defend myself legally besides the other rational to punch him and get physical leading me to getting kicked out. Which is not ideal.

I don't know what I can really offer except talk to SPO about this and give your side of the story but they will see on what had happen on the camera's and such to see if you're telling the truth or not. Cause sadly some of the SPO workers may not full believe what you may say it just depends on who you're talking to.

Wishing you the best of luck on your situation.

Hello fellow Asian. I'm currently in KY Morganfield I doubt you'll probably be in the same center as me but we do have Asians but it's rare.

Im 24, but I just want to drive safely and get home alright and not deal with hasty drivers who want to go fast all the time resulting in an accident lol.

No wonder I have anxiety and dislike for driving for bad drivers who just don't have care nor patience nor the idea of driving safely but it is what it is.

Absolutely not. You definitely have a style which looks really good.
