George L. on LinkedIn: I'm in the Ends 🧐 Just been to look at and price re-pointing the rear of… (2024)

Ok, I should receive the invoices this week for the (RICS) certificate in surveying & my (NEBOSH) 💁♂️The structural job is to waterproof the (2) existing basem*nt wall's that are both U shaped then build reinforced concrete walls, before having new slabs lifted and replaced by Highway maintenance, its quite a good little job, its not quite as tech as underpinning as it does not require support, however, it is for a public path and walk way that carries a large footfall, besides the hoarding to go up, the property's are on a main road and must be secured and protected and burgle proof at night at the same time, without disturbing the day to day business of both properties 🧐 Lets see how it goes, if they accept the price, I know whats involved and what its worth, a budget was mentioned, I asked if that was for the Hoarding 😅😬😳

Here's a little number to keep things in perspective ✨️ 😃That's brilliant 🙂https://lnkd.in/eCKwUnPX

Despondency, I know why and I know how to fix that, I can turn that around, and without jest, I'm not telling, not that any service providers could manage if I did say publicly. why should I, how do I benefit to watch pathetic services, try and fail, and fail and fail, you haven't got a scooby doo, you don't know who to start with or what to start with or what to deliver, how to deliver it, your cohorts, the answer is in the cohorts.Do you know how many times I have been that guy, that bewildered lost soul laying on the prison bed, not knowing, nothing but a history of substance offending, I love it when service providers do posts that inmates have said it, the course they just completed was the best course they have ever done, please, 🤣😂😃

Defo worth a repost, divine intervention 😃

Ok, as I was saying my experience is not that of a lifer, a lifer or IPP, violent prisoner, my experience of HMPPS is that of a substance trauma offender and victim of failed societal structures.At the end of this week I will be paying the awarding body's fee's, once paid Bail Trust becomes a registered training provider offering quite a list of courses.I have just built a roof a wooden roof on an 8 meter garden extension complete open front not a house extension, I will felt it this week, torch on, expecting others to live up to my expectations has its challenges, I learnt carpentry in custody and have multi traded since the last decade and a half mostly apart from when I have taken time out for studying , I might be plastering the ceiling and possibly rendering the rear of the existing extension, there are quite a few little construction jobs lined up, the retrofitting contract with the rear extension and loft, I will do just for site assessment for bricklaying and carpentry NVQ.And of course for the experience of a retrofitting, funny I was talking to a bloke who previously was at a job that was a domestic retrofit, that got signed of, I said yeah, the industry is saturated by cow boys and idiots, that is all changed now, there will be no signing off of anything, not under my name as a Coordinator.lots of work to be done yet !

So, if society knows that processed and super processed foods are cancerous with research showing with certain foods people are 700% more likely to develop Leukemia and brain cancer, like hot dogs, etc etc, so the government give the foods a seal of approval suitable for human consumption, they sell cancer in a tin so its a class thing to feed the masses, so is that everything tinned including burgers, and targeting children in their advertising.This was a post I just seen about research that was done in America and the research was children who consumed hot dogs.And also why is it that poor countries in comparison to the UK food manufacturers make food products that are not for the UK but suitable for countries in Asia !

Yeah, I read all the posts and hear opinions about a second chance 🙄 How about those who didn't get a first chance let alone a second chance, I see posts about those who make mistakes' I was stupid they say, why ? because you were caught when your intentions were to earn money illegally, made a conscious calculated adult decision, ok, you have seen the erra of your ways, and you want a second chance to right your wrongs to make a difference, and raa taa ta.How about those who didn't have that first chance, you know I love when I see these jump ons talking about day treatment services like they have a clue about the service users, it's not that they don't see addiction it's that you don't know the behaviour what they are going through or how to reach them, your services are not fit for purpose , you think because they get paid to work in the Sector, just because he or she were criminly corrupted and thought they were smart and clever before they were caught, now all of a sudden they are professionals in the Sector 😳

I was looking at other avenues and directions, what and how I could make it interesting for me with throwing Law & Criminology or a different combination, just purely as a challenge for the end and start of next years academic year, once I graduate, then I read what I read in the 4 Modules, what is written and about what and the policy makers within the (penology) module, and thought you have got to be having a laugh, is this for real, you actually feel and believe you are at this level of professionalism and expertise, and just how the prison system does not reflect policy, do not make me laugh errm, is this honestly for real or was it placed as a hoax or some form of sick joke. I have read the previous years policy's and other documents relating to the business strategy's within that reflect a wider picture, and that against actual real life and reality, even the policy's that are in place for when YOI's become of age that they are to be transferred to Men's prisons, and I read all the pages and I'm like wait a min I've been there, it does not exist it never has done 🧐If it done what the policy's said we wouldn't have prostitutes getting jobs as landing staff and creating prison p*rn, would we.

Ok, my Criminology & Sociology -research degree 🧐I have chosen the Criminology Dissertation, its 7000 words, It hasn't even entered my mind yet what my choice will be, but what I do know is my LE of the CJS & HMPPS as a recidivist, substance & trauma offender spans over many years, many prisons, and many areas of London 🤓This I will use for the purpose it was designed but for me not as a practitioner, not to research past or current interventions or programmes that the CJS are, I am way further forward and far beyond what they are doing or what they are considering or trying to do, its all rather embarrassing actually, I don't need to, I have been there and done it 💁♂️But, I do have specific research for HMPPS, and this is because I want to see the data and produce reports, graphs and charts over 3 decades, reflecting what, I am very interested to see how the crack epidemic that came in the 90's, how that impacted crime, incarceration and what this looks like for different ethnicity's, Gender, Geographic's & Age, I have my reasons, I'm not telling 😅I was victim of circ*mstance, but, I was also a child, and I remember very clearly standing up in Youth Court, I have been in every youth court in London, and I am absolutely appalled at my experiences, looking back as a child in the CJS, the courts, the people who work in them, their sentencing Law's, the Guide Lines for sentencing a child, how the courts are ran, how the complete system was and is, my experiences of the Treatment services in London, Drug & Alcohol services, and the Prison Estates, every thing about them, all of it, I wonder if you actually know how and or where to start or what to start with, who to start with, I can just see them all now the staff the governors, the managers, where do you start, I know what to do and how to do it and that is inclusive of the majority🤐 I mean, you can give all the big contracts to all the big construction company's and so called rehabilitation company's, I am sick of talking about it, and on top of it all, all I have experienced is how many so called reputable organisations try and plagiarise and copy me and try and use me and what I am doing, but to fast track there own services, I have seen it in the last few years 🤐 Its what drives me, its what has driven me, all the years I was a substance offender at the leisure of HMPP's, all the years, all the times I was in custody HMP, YOI Feltham, Pentonville, Brixton, Leicester, Peterborough, Wellingborough & Wayland 😀
