My Nonprofit Reviews

These people DO NOT CARE about your physical health. I worked at Tube World - Cataloochee Ski Area while in the program. While on the job, I was hit by a tuber, flown into the air, and landed on my neck. I heard my neck crack as it bent into the ground and saw stars. Fortunately, I didn't break anything or suffer nerve damage. However, I had terrible pains at night, trouble sleeping, and nightmares for weeks.

But the staff didn't care. They minimized the incident when I told them about it and made me feel weak for needing to share. Also, William Faulkner, one of the staff, punished me for being "late on the van" as I was dealing with this injury. I was getting about five hours of sleep a night while working at the Tube World from open until close. One morning, after nearly breaking my neck, I slept a bit too late. Our van left at 6:30 or 7:00 and I was barely a few minutes late. I was actually proud of myself for being that strong and for getting there almost on time, but then when I got home around midnight, I was pulled aside and written up for being late.

They put us through hell.
