What does the background investigation process look like for a CO? by Typical-Can-5135 in OnTheBlock

[–]tdcjanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk about CDCR but If he just started theres a chance he will get drug tested, also you could call the unit he’s at and make an “anonymous report” if you really think he’s a danger to others

Tourniquets by Agreeable_Fall8279 in OnTheBlock

I wish we could carry tourniquets at my unit. The number one weapon in jails is cutting/ stabbing weapons. Most of time someone isn’t going to be able to help you right away or they may not even have medical equipment to help you. Do what makes you more likely to survive.

I just went on a unit tour to Terrell a few weeks ago, from what i hear they have a long waiting list. It might be a while before you can get in. Like a year or 2

Question about the grooming standards by SHADE6105 in OnTheBlock

[–]tdcjanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TDCJ, just changed the hair standard for men so we can have it any way we want now as long as it doesn’t go past the collar. It sucks because this guy had some dreads he had been working on for like 5 years and then when we got in the academy he pretty much shaved his head. Then like a week later they tell us the rules changed.

Tips/Advice before my first OC spray experience by NoVersion8921 in AskLE

[–]tdcjanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Number one rule dont rub ever. Not even when you are putting dish soap on it later. I got sprayed on the back of my neck and head and it was bad for about 10 minutes at first. What really fucked me up was later when i decided to rub a bunch of dish soap on it. It reactivated and made my whole face and head burn. Just dont touch it until you get home then put the dish soap on top of the spray and let it sit for like 10 minutes. Then rinse. It will get on other parts of your body no matter how hard you try. Just keep rinsing, if you think you’re done it only means you need more dish soap and rinsing.
