for those who have orientation date set up-try to call them and ask for opening earlyier.there are always people who cancell. When i filled aplication got orientation date like in two month but called my recruiter couple weeks later and asked if possibly there are any openings faster. And she said -sure you can come on monday if you want. So those who cant wait to start good living - try to call ur recruiter.

Today in orientation they showed us a picture of the inside of the truck that stopped the pet policy. I think he had 2 dogs and 1 cat. He trashed the inside of the truck.

I dont know how people can do that, I love cats and dogs but i dont want to be in that small of a place with them all the time. I seen a guy at a rest area around albany that had a big Gecko(or some kind of lizard) sitting on his dash. not sure about that either.

That sounds like the mentality we have in the military. One guy craps his pants and EVERYONE has to wear diapers!
