"It's like my sanctuary, peace of mind," said Perry Bailey, a mechanic intern.
Eight new mechanic interns at Full Circle Service Center, a subsidiary of Vehicles for Change, are former inmates in the Maryland prison system. Many said they've had trouble finding employment since being released.

Do they work on school buses. I need a brake job and tune up?
ReplyDeleteYou want convicts working on a school bus
ReplyDeleteHe's a mechanic and a convict. No particular order. Damn right I'd give him a shot. I'd give anyone a chance.
DeleteI don't believe he filled out 47 applications an all 47 did criminal history checks. Cost money. 100 percent did back round checks lies. I do believe all will be late to work, piss dirty, fight and steal from employer.
ReplyDeleteReal nice there pal. Sure is funny how a LOT of these people say they are innocent, and then it turns out that they are when DNA comes into play. Likely mostly drug charges, and the Md Judiciary site does not charge a fee. Also brainiac, the applications likely ask the question about criminal history.
DeleteSo you want more unemployed people we can pay for? Why would you have this attitude about somebody WANTING to work.
What a butt hole you must be.
