[free40yess]

federal Government is the best place to work!

[ripley1423]

@vallero29 Go to USAJOBS dot com.

[ripley1423]

@vallero29 @vallero29 One of the problems with becoming a federal correctional officer is that youmust be  36 years old or younger at the time of entry.

USAJOBS dot com is the website that you want Search for corrections officers and bureau of prisons. Most new C.O.s are recruited at the GS-5 or GS-6 level,

[YouTooBunny2]

This video was great. I almost want to become an officer myself just to get through the program.

So this is where they train before they go in lol i did 2 years between acouple diffrent prisions ive seen my share of noobs start in the B.O.P i loved seeing there eyes just go wide when it was time for them to unlock the doors lol but hey there were a bunch of great co`s and some not so great but for the most part i admire you for all your hard work.

The private Prison industry is rapidly becoming a very viable investment opportunity on Wall Street because most American prisons are privatized. There is no shortage of criminals to stock the production lines that profit privatized prison corporations, ensuring your investment steadily matures.

This is a great intro video for the career-minded individual who may be seeking part-time employment or a full-time career with Fed BoP in one of America's most lucrative industries, Human Imprisonment.

[brownladd81]

@sanjacraven36

if they would run the SOB like it supposed to that place in the boondocks would not be so bad...

[MANSHOTS]

Why would you go to Georgia for the beaches, resorts, and golden isles, that's what Hawaii is for.

[MANSHOTS]

all of that food is high fat and high cholesterol, would make you too sluggish you wouldn't be able to get through the day, the environment can consume you. Best regimen to keep sharp and focused and emotionally together in the classroom and on the training fields, no less than three cups of black coffee in the morning, oatmeal, whole wheat muffins, citrus fruits, and assorted nuts for protein.

[DannyBoy52785]

was glynco pretty much like this?

[cop982002]

WOW, i recently came from FLETC and i had the best time , meet some great guys, oh and the training is easy, im astonish that were "federal law enforcement" no wonder we are a joke to the other agencies we met down there! BOP 951! hoo raah

[tombro77]

soda AND ice machines?

damn.

[Bound4NH]

They sure try to puff up the instructors. Truth is, most BCT instructors have screwed up and are no longer allowed to work in actual BOP facilities.

The firearms instructors were an exception: they were excellent when I was there, oh so many years ago.

Good news for rookies, the ranges are all indoors now. You no longer have to qualify while swatting sand gnats.

[ap8610]

Excellent

[njfinest50]

BOP-909 the trouble class...they should make a video just about what happened down there, with our class.. glynco is a joke for the bop..

[chiefgrego]

I loveed this place...... wish it was 3 months

[basboosa911]

Thank goodness they changed the uniforms!  I hated those gym socks!!!!!!!

[jpribyl]

They didn't change the gym outfits...I still had the yellow lined socks

[basboosa911]

I was scatterbrained when I posed this. I am glad they changed the work uniforms. I think those socks were there before either of us were born!

[bismanpokerclub]

The best part (only good thing at all for that matter) of working for the BOP was Going to FLETC. The BOP sucks ass.

[johnboy1933]

Wow this video is soooo old. FLETC is totaly different. At about 8:00 into the video you can see the white raid houses behind them, and then an open field. We have since then added so many things. Update this video.

[Bound4NH]

Boy, we were cool in those glasses, weren't we?

I recognize a couple of folks in the video. I still work with one of them.

[mikegsr94]

Hi I recently applied at the Atwater Facility in Ca. I was wondering how the Academy is like this video look very outdates. Any info would be appreciated.

[Bound4NH]

It is VERY outdated. In an effort to pass everyone who has a pulse, the course is now shorter and less demanding (and it was pretty lame when this video was shot).

Funny, when they're recruiting, they never show this video:

v=l6Fcim5XH4g

(also from Atwater).

[ELMO0632]

WOW....this video is soooo old!! and i see the chicken is the only thing that has not changed....yuk!
