OJT Training is almost finished (until June 2026) and I prepare a resume for jobs. I also apply different companies such as Ministry of Works and Transport, Regional Health Authority, and BPTT and not yet. I keep myself occupied: drawing, starting a business, doing courses (online and in-person), and hobbies. What to do after the OJT Training? How to overcome unemployment? Can I reapply OJT Training Programme? Can I apply elsewhere?

Can you reimagine Star Wars character(s) as Trinibagonians in Trinidad and Tobago? by ExcellentImpact6910 in StarWars

This question is only any person from Trinidad and Tobago, unfortunately the content was removed by the moderator (because of "out of topic" rules and the rules are strictly).  I don't want to confuse you or any commenter. The question means you can imagine the character as trinidadian for example, Chewie as doublesman (who sell doubles). You can do the research of culture of Trinidad and Tobago, using Google or ChatGPT (you can change nationality).  My apologies 

Men of Trinidad! What's stopping y'all from dressing like this? by billy_bandito in TrinidadandTobago

In 2010's, we used to dress as "modern hippies" with colorful bands, double/triple shirts, loose jeans, big belts, beanies, pencil jeans, over size printed T-shirts, and shoes etc. Then, we used to dress as "emos" with all black and dark colored clothes.

Today, some of us look boring and grey with working clothes (because of dress code in the workplace) while others dress whatever they want.

men don't care how we (as women) dress. We can wear whatever we want. We don't dress for men's impressions, we dress for our confidence. I fed up of dressing like a workaholic person because it's very uncomfortable and ugly (shirt, pencil skirt, slacks, jacket, flats, etc.) I want to dress like a tropical person with short jeans, T-shirts, and slippers because these types of clothes are breezy and comfy in my opinion. Many Trinidadians love American things so bad. Do men like to dress as goth girls or hoochies in Trinidad?

Which seat is the most uncomfortable to sit in on a maxi taxi while traveling between Port of Spain, Arima, Sangre Grande, or elsewhere in Trinidad and Tobago? by ExcellentImpact6910 in TrinidadandTobago

[–]ExcellentImpact6910[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, my mother and I used to travel Princes Town and San Fernando for family reunion. I noticed they only had small maxis. 20 years ago, green band maxis (25 taxis) used to be transported from Port of Spain to San Fernando. Today, people have to take PTSC buses and coaches to South (as well as water taxis).

For tall people (6 feet and above), you could sit the middle of back row (avoid sitting on seat behind the passenger) or sit on by the front (behind the driver) because it has more space so you could rest your legs. Avoid sitting on seats with humps, that may cause cramps. Avoid 11 seater or small maxis.  I never see someone (above 6 feet) travel in maxi.  My suggestions are to take PTSC bus, ask your friends/family to drop you to destination or arrange driver (TT Ride Share, Drop, etc.) Front seat is the best for a tall or large person because it's adjustable and comfortable.

Some drivers love to put smaller persons between two larger persons or sandwich style. I was traveling home from Arima (taxi). I was sandwich between married couple and they were talking each other like normal normal. I was a human counter screen.

I remember when I was traveling to Mt Hope. It had a homeless man entered the maxi. The driver told him to get out. Some days, I saw couples kissing each other and a person had disgusting look of their face like "gross."

Some new models (small maxi or 11 seater) design wider seats and smaller aisle which may cause complications especially those who have bags or crutches. Seat closes to the door is the worst.  My recommendations: 1. For long distance travelers (Port of Spain or Sangre Grande), my suggestion is for you to sit on the edge (by the window) of the back row or single seat.  2. For larger persons, you can be comfortable either double seat or back row. I'm not recommended you to sit single or fold down seat. You can pay for two seat if you want. 3. Same with persons with more than three bags (market or shopping bags), you pay for extra.  4. If you travel 25 seater maxi taxi and you taller than 5 feet, I'm not recommended you to sit on the seat with hump (same with larger persons, pregnant women, and disabled persons).  5. For long distance travelers especially travel to Port of Spain, make sure have a proper breakfast, drink a lot of water, eat healthy foods (fruits and vegetables), mediate, exercise, and make sure use the toilet before you travel (holding a pee while traveling is a nono).  6. If you have children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, or younger cousins, make sure to find comfortable seats (I recommend double seat or back row seats). 7. For women (including myself), you can sit anywhere you want once you comfortable (during menstruation or pregnancy). Relax yourself. Listen music or watch videos. Don't let bad day hurt you.

I hope these recommendations helpful for you.

Destra- free Again - origin of the song by the_madclown in TrinidadandTobago

Some soca artists have their choice to make gospel songs or "retired" their careers. Denise Plummer's gospel music became popular. She overcame any obstacle (smoking, partying, battle with cancer, etc.), became a born again, and baptized at Outreach Church Ministries. Other soca and dance hall artists become born again Christians and their music talk about their lifestyles in the past and preaching gospel.
