| These people are seriously incompetent. This morning, they have me scheduled to do what they call a Winn Lab. I come into the classroom and follow the instructions on the board to get to the website. I ask the teacher if I'm on the right website and he says he doesn't know because he's just a substitute for the day. So I try to log on and I keep getting the message " Student not found. " I told the teacher but he didn't know anything about it. At that moment, another teacher walked in and he said I could ask her. So I did. She told me that unless you've been put in administratively, you can't log on. I told her I didn't know what I was supposed to do, in that case, and she said she didn't either. Oh, I am SO glad to be in a place that supposed to train me to have a working fucking life and the people in charge don't know what the hell they're doing! What the fuck is wrong with these people!?! Everyone told me this was a good decision for me and it would definitely be worth it. But is it? I have NEVER heard anyone say, " Job Corps was the best decision I ever made. " This is fucking bullshit. I came here to get my life in order and the people who are supposedly here to help with that don't even have the fucking program in order. I'm so aggravated right now. AND they have me scheduled for two periods of English classes I don't need and shouldn't have to take at all because I got the highest possible score when I took the reading placement test. WTF!?! | |

kinkyrose1212 | Re: , 12-04-12 8:49am Lol thanks for the offer! It might be better than here, not many places aren't. Worse yet, the trade I want to take is full, woohoo, so now I have to wait for fucking months until someone completes. Or I can take another trade in the meantime, but I really don't want to be here any longer than necessary. We'll see what happens. Grumble, grumble... |

kinkyrose1212 | Re: Re: Re: , 12-05-12 8:29am I actually used to work in produce, usually on nights and weekends. I don't know about this place. I came here determined to stick it out, but everything about it, except the friends I've made, is just so, SO bad. I might just walk away from it because while I do realize I can't just do nothing with my life, I basically AM doing nothing here. On Christmas day I will have been enrolled in this program for two months and still accomplished absolutely nothing. I'm so frustrated. |
| katiecat | Re: Re: Re: Re: , 12-05-12 10:17am Is this a program run thru the government? I can't believe what a dump it is turning out to be for you!! |
kinkyrose1212 | Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: , 12-06-12 8:21am Oh, yes, it is indeed run through the government. The campus is an old psychiatric hospital for the air force and we have an air base right next to us. It's a federal program on federal property. |
| katiecat | Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: , 12-06-12 12:23pm Haha, ok, now it's all making sense! Sounds about right for a program run by the government. If it was a well running, sophisticated program with a high job probability after leaving the program, with SANE people in charge, THEN I would be asking questions.... cause there's no such thing. Well I wish you all the best with making your decision to leave or stay. If it were me in your shoes, I'd be stuck too. But when I'm unhappy from my surroundings, it starts affecting my attitude, mental stability, and my work ethic. I can't imagine how hard it is there for you. Especially with a bunch of lunatics in charge. |
kinkyrose1212 | Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: , 12-06-12 5:18pm Lol! Yeah, and the staff is always stressing how we " shouldn't be complaining because it's free. " We might not have to pay MONEY for it, but like you said, this place does indeed affect my attitude, work ethic, and mental stability. It would be easier to deal with the students sucking so much if the staff knew what they were doing and I could actually start doing what I came here to do, but no, that would be too good to be true, apparently. I'm going to talk things over with my dad this weekend. In the meantime, I elected to go into Office Administration before Pharmacy Tech ( although God only knows if a position in Pharmacy Tech will be available THEN ). I just feel like if I've only been here a month and a half and haven't even started a trade and I already feel like my head is going to explode, how the hell am I going to be feeling when I've been here for six months? Possibly more! Fuckin' A, man... |
