Hello 705
How did the intake procedure proceed at this private location and how many hours do you still have to do untill you meet the required 180 hours?
And how do you cope with charging 3 ankle monitors instead of 2?Best regards
Azureko
Dear Azureko1,
The intake was pretty straightforward. I changed into the designated uniform, basically orange shirt and orange scrub pants and was locked in the cell. I was some time on a laptop but the parental controls had been increased significantly so internet use was pretty restricted.
As I have been reminded several times since leaving, I still have 157 hours to complete in the remaining 8 months of the year. I am hoping to be able to do longer than 23 or 24 hours next months to try to get ahead in case there are scheduling issues in the future.
Charging the 3 monitors is difficult and inconvenient. One has a clip on charger and I can move around while charging. The is a programmed requirement to charge that one at least two hours a day. The other two have charging cable that plug into the wall so I am stuck in one place while they charge. One of the cables is about six feet long so I an stuck in a chair while it charges. It has a light to indicate a full charge. The other cable is about ten feet long so I can get a bit more movement. I try to charge the two cable ones at the same time. They take about an hour and a half each day tethered in the one spot.
The hardest part is not being stuck in one place. The hardest part is knowing I will have to do this again tomorrow and the next day and over and over again.
Thank you for your interest and your questions.
Respectfully,
705
