Jobcentre Plus 

Great British institution that is usually found in most towns and cities.
Jobcentre plus offices are usually uninviting, depressing grey buildings that are responsible for getting the unemployed into work. It is staffed by patronising little tinpot dictators who think that every unemployed person is a workshy idle bum and that there are 5 jobs available for every dole claimant. They love threatening benefit sanctions for those that will not accept part time temporary agency work for national minimum wage.
The only vocabulary known to these staff is "What have you been doing to actively seek work since you last came - I must remind you that if I decide you have not been doing enough to actively seek work I will stop your benefit"
Jobcentre plus usually employs security staff and doormen to throw you out if you complain that your benefits have been sanctioned or you do not agree with a dictators decision.
Jobcentre plus is usually surrounded by chavs in their trackies smoking reefers and single teenage mothers with their kids and prams, and is generally a pretty unpleasant place to visit, as you are always made to feel guilty that you are even there in the first place.
Jobcentre plus is supposed to help you find work by offering a tailored support package to support each individual. In reality Jobcentre Plus expects you to find your own job and woe betide anyone that cant find their own job - as then you will be deemed to be in breach of your jobseekers agreement and benefit sanctions will ensue. Anyone who has their benefits sanctioned by Jobcentre Plus is then expected to steal and commit crime to be able to live.
You want to come out with us today Dave?
Nah, I've gotta go up Jobcentre Plus to get me benefits sanctioned!

JobCorps 

Jobcorps is a strange and unbidding place. First off you are lied to before you actually step foot on the property then again after you do. They give you medical in the form of medicare and at the first sign of something serious the send you home till you pay a doctor to say your better. In is a place where you have to find somthing to do or commit suicide which happened here in Homestead two weeks before I got here. On first impression it reminds you of a prison and it is though it doesn't have a ball and chain. Should you change your mind and quit you pay from your own pocket to get home. Here some of the teachers care like HVAC, Automotive others don't and are hard to find AKA: Computer Repair. The rules are in place until people get comfortable then the take away liberties without intention of returning them. I mean if you have no choice as in homeless which was my case it is an option. Truthfully I wouldn't recomend this place I was better on the side of the road they will mind wipe you into being a drone or kill you.

JobCorps 

One word, Prison. Once you arrive at JobCorps you will find yourself stripped of civil liberties while constantly being reminded that you are being giving a tremendous opportunity (The same opportunity any bum off the street can get) witch is ironic because most people at JobCorps are homeless. The part of my life i spent at JobCorps i like to dub "My Two Weeks in Hell". First off, upon arrival we were given expired old turkey sandwiches, served leftover Mexican lasagna 3 days in a row, saw more drugs than an entire lifetime, fights plentiful, alcohol, shit on my toilet seat upon arrival, someone pissed on someones door in my wing, rules that are to inhumane for prison, no internet, no leaving campus, no nothing. To refrain from being board there is a gym with a basketball court, warning enter at own risk, this court is heavily populated with angry belligerent black folks who cant handle a loss and will easily fight over the slightest argument, is best to avoid. Ethnic ratio 70% blacks, 28% spanish, and 2% white. I was part of that 2% and acquired the name Eminem because of it. Quite simply JobCorps is a last resort all hope is gone, homeless or prison bound, government run and funded Youth Correctional Facility. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. If One is so unlucky and is tricked to get up there, one must buy his own ways back home witch in my case was a 100$ bus ticket BEWARE!
Joey: Hi im Joey, I just got here today!

Mike: First day at JobCorps?

Joey: Yes.

Mike: Welcome to Hell Im leaving tomorrow.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
