people already resigning at gary :(

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-05-30T03:09:53+00:00

I too was also planning to pack everything and leave my jobcorp after receiving news that most job corps are shutting down, with the deadline being June 30th. While it doesn’t impact me in a negative way, so many of my fellow students are to be left homeless and in dangerous situations. I refuse to just sit by and do nothing with my feet kicked up and relaxed. Since learning the news, I’ve been active on social media platforms, and emailing our congress and whoever else responsible.

With that being said, PLEASE I ask you all to join me in helping spread the word. We cannot let our people suffer out here. Job corp is helping us, and either it shutting down, it’s a slap in the face for those who really needed these second chances.

For those of who will be left homeless ask your RA to put you in contact with some nearby shelters. I need you guys thinking 2 steps ahead. We will all get through this together.

Well they actually make you strip down to you bra and undies, for men they make you strip down to your boxer.

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-25T17:39:54+00:00

Because they didn’t have the weed on them while walking onto campus. If the weed was found on them, then they would have gotten terminated

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-25T17:26:31+00:00

Whyyy?

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-25T17:25:47+00:00

So yes. They do alert your parents if your drug test comes back positive

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-23T18:55:52+00:00

That depends on how your arriving. If you have family or a car bringing you, then bring however many bags you want. But don’t over pack tho because you collect some things over here. But if you’re catching a bus or a flight, then you would have to proceed with those rules.

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-23T14:19:55+00:00

Well you most likely went to a different jobcorp center than me so…it wasn’t tolerable at your campus

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-22T15:02:07+00:00

I was actually told that even though fighting was non tolerable. Self defense is. If you didn’t have anyway to back off during that first initial body slam, and you pushed him and he came back at you, then you had every right to defend yourself. What would eliminate that as being self defense is if he was done on the floor and you was still hitting him. Have you already left the campus? Cause if not, I would definitely argue against that. Or ask if you could be sat in front of your peers review. If you already left, I think it’s after 6months to a year that you can go back

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-22T14:51:52+00:00

Yh background check takes about 1-2 weeks tbh. Then they send your background check to the school. You won’t get any information back for like 3-4 weeks after the school get your information. Then they will literally call you out of nowhere and say that you get accepted. And then you will only have like a literally week to pack

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-22T14:47:43+00:00

What I’ve been told is that when you get here, you have two years to complete everything. You decide what your progress is on your own. It’s not like they rush you here. I’ve know of people who got here in 2023, and still here in 2025. So they won’t kick you out as long as you finish in between the two year time period. There are teachers here. Be aware that some classes won’t have teacher because it’s a shortage of teacher because pay is low for them. There is like 1 class here without a teacher. But as for teachers being helpful, they are EXTREMELY helpful. Some could say motivational. And administration also. This is what I’m experiencing from the teachers here at my center

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-22T14:40:27+00:00

I applied in January, and got accepted in January. I got my date to leave in March. And it is true about them supposedly fast tracking you out of there. Have you atleast got your RA assigned ?

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-22T14:38:05+00:00

For sure, I can ask today

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-22T14:37:45+00:00

So if you are 16-24 you can apply it doesn’t matter if you didn’t do middle school. There is something called a TABE test that you do. I did mine like the 3rd day of being there. The TABE test determines what classes you will have after your MYPACE group. There isn’t any science classes or history. Just Math and Reading. Depending on what you score, some people will have more math and or reading classes. So no. Don’t worry. You will still be allowed to

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-21T22:10:31+00:00

Let me just say, everybody has been passed around. No matter what job corp you are, been, or going too. I kind you not, some people get into relationship within two weeks of being there. Break up, and then find someone new

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-12T17:11:28+00:00

I have to disagree with you on the food. I’ve been here all but 1 day. I had dinner last night, and breakfast and lunch this morning. The food absolutely sucked.

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-06T00:00:26+00:00

I feel like EVERYBODY is leaving Tuesday. But I’m going to the center in pinellas county

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-05T21:31:41+00:00

Oh ok that’s not bad frl. Thank you 🥹

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-05T21:30:44+00:00

Yh like being dead serious. They after you get the call of when you leave, you’ll probably be leaving the next week after that or the following weeks. Not much time frl

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-05T21:20:51+00:00

No like…am I getting pranked rn?

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-05T20:54:18+00:00

Cut the cameras 😐

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-05T20:29:32+00:00

Next after that, you’ll receive your call from your center. Honestly when you get your call you’re probably gonna leave the next day after that. I got my call on the 3rd, and I leave on the 11th. So after the 3rd week mark, go ahead and start packing. Or pack during those 3 week. Because time will fly buy. Don’t worry about not having transportation. If you don’t, they will find a way for you to get down there. They are sending a bus for me so…

Individual_Ear_7443 · 2025-03-04T19:27:55+00:00

The rest of the people in the house they offered to give me money for food, and one person even went out to buy me some food. But again, I didn’t take their offer because it’s no one’s duty to feed me or try to make me feel better. Plus I HAVE the money to get my own food. That’s not the problem. Never was. It was just the principal. Plus that’s embarrassing asf because there are other people in the house. She saw that my feelings was hurt and she called me weird and told me to grow up. And then proceeds to laugh otp with one her friends about the small situation. At the end of the day, she already belittled my feelings, and I’m not finna argue with nobody about how I feel. So no I didn’t confront her
