I'm going to be in class also. However I'm coming from St. Louis. Would of been nice to have company for the trip. See ya Monday Devildawg. Who knows. Maybe we will get lucky and it's just us two in the class. Hell of alot more training time not having to split it up so much. I can't wait tho getting a little nervous.

Had a couple questions real quick. Are shorts ok for school. Now I'm not completely stupid. I wouldn't be out there in cutoffs tank top and flip flops but shorts and t shirt with either tennis shoe or boots. Also does the hotel have a fridge stove microwave etc. Any advice would be appreciated. Stuff from people who have been there wishing they would of brought this or that. Thanks in advance.

Emt3508, glad to hear someone else is with me in class, I too am getting a little nervious. I will be at the hotel around 8 or 830ish depending when my family lets me leave !!! I asked Alice the same question, but did not get a clear answer on the shorts and tee shirts, but she did state the the rooms had a fridge and microwave. I guess I'll pack some shorts and ask on the 1st day, also I too hope the class is small, more steering wheel time would'nt hurt !!

I know Greg in cartersville recommends tennis shoes when learning to double clutch. Helps you feel it better.

I always wear shorts and a Millis shirt when I am out, however, I learned a lesson yesterday, always pack at least 1 pair of pants (which I did not). I arrived at a customer and was not allowed on the property without "long pants" so they gave me a pair of those white clean room pants to wear while I was being loaded. Man, was I HOT in them! (plus probably looked like a fool. LOL)
