    OK. I'll look for ya. Maybe we can go thru all this together. If you have 9 years experience already, I can see me asking for pointers already. Are they making you take the whole PSD and TNT?

    Bentbiker, are you still scheduled for Monday? They tried to bump me back, but I had already bought my plane ticket. Supposed to be 70 in orientation.

    Bet 30 of them will be gone by the end of the first day..Remember you are being evaluated at all times.

    Best of luck.

    Yes, I am headed that way now on the Grey dog... Never did I expect 70 people in a class. But as said, likely half will be culled after the first day...

    That's really not that big of a class. Fewer will likely be culled than you think. The recruiters do a pretty good job of making sure the boss only springs for the bus ticket for folks qualified to actually start training.
