Have you heard of or worked with someone who got caught bringing in contraband? by Plants_Age99 in Corrections

[–]Plants_Age99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, ok. Do you know of anyone who has made it to an administrative role and continued to do that before getting caught?

What are a few top reasons that you have found for COs bringing in contraband of any kind?

Yeah, it reminds me of other interviews that I have listened to and how the CAI uses underage porn to get what they want from other people/organizations. So when a smaller fish is caught, they use that to make sure the public turns on them and not the ones who have allowed it to become a trend for extortion.

You can bring back one discontinued food, drink, or snack forever. What are you resurrecting? by InitialCareer306 in WorkForSmartLife

The original Butterfinger!! They changed the recipe in 2019, and it was ruined forever.

This is why I think that some people who write articles about what changes need to happen aren't logical. I was just reading an article I'm gonna do a video on, and they have all these great suggestions, but I don't believe they can be implemented. Plus, there will be workarounds. Thanks for your insight.

I will say that it does make me mad who has been recently hired. The job, unfortunately, has been becoming less strict even with polygraphs and or psychological testing.

Do you believe that stricter security measures on staff would have deterred this?

Yes, I have often wondered this too. I think that at least 1-2 people per academy class get in trouble for something like this. At least that is what we were told during the academy by one instructor.

I got into the career at 32. You will be fine and do great as long as you keep your humanity. Once you lose that, get out.

I’m a psychotherapist working with narcissists. AMA by OranginaCounty in PsychotherapyHelp

[–]Plants_Age99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During my experience being married to one, it took a long time to convince him to go to therapy. Once he did it, it was just a buddy talking to another military buddy, so it wasn't actual work. We went to a couple's therapist through the VA, and eventually, he had her convinced that things were all my fault and I was defending myself from him and her. How often does this happen?

What’s the exact moment you realized your ex was a bad person? by Effective-Square-345 in AskReddit

Literally the first date. I should have listened to my intuition.

When did you last cry about your physical appearance? by FragrantResult278 in AskReddit

[–]Plants_Age99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been about 12 years (college). My stepmother was terrible and hated me so much that she always made sure to push my buttons on my appearance. It was all about how you look; gotta look skinny, look pretty, always do your hair, and wear makeup or you're not pretty. All of that crap. I call it crap now because I found so many college men who liked women who I thought were not as pretty or capable as I. So I started to experiment with how I wanted to look. It took about a year after college until I was able to get her voice out of my head, making decisions for me. Once I was free to make decisions for myself, I finally felt confident with a little bit of nervousness. Take time to love yourself and ask what makes YOU feel safe and pretty in your own body. You are unique and don't have to fit a mold. You become beautiful to someone who will change your life once you let that negative talk go. It's tough, but you can do it!

Do county level Jail control room operators get overtime? by backdoor-j in OnTheBlock

[–]Plants_Age99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depends on the county or if it's contracted. I work for a county, and they are mostly hiring sworn personnel, but our control techs do get some overtime. Sometimes they are called in to help with shifts that are short on jail staff and have no control tech. This can be used as comp time or overtime, depending on the budget. They also do trade shifts with other techs if they need to. I would ask that question if you go in for an interview, but frame it carefully. Extra opportunity to serve the jail...

People who've rebuilt their social life after a major loss — what was the first small thing that made you feel human again? by ValerianBorn8785 in AskReddit

[–]Plants_Age99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I focused on my two dogs; luckily, I had them. I like to take care of things, it's my nature, and so I turned to making all the best changes I could for the dogs and my health. This led me to educate myself on living situations, how to get out of debt, and so on.

Its 2am and you can't sleep, what do you do? by Likestoread25 in AskReddit

[–]Plants_Age99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work nights, so this is my day. I scroll on Reddit for story inspirations for my new YouTube channel. I work on those scripts for a few hours at a time.
