    Done with orientation since yesterday but still waiting patiently for my driver code..they told me to come back tomorrow morning.. Does it really take this long to issue a driver code and mentor?

    At times yes. They are probably waiting for some paperwork tgo get returned and also probably a mentor that is going to be in the area.

    Normally, no. I had my code on the last day of orientation. Those few that didn't were generally waiting for some type of documentation to arrive.

    might have to wait a couple days for your mentor. depends where they are at and how far to get to you. good luck and bring alot of patience. a good attitude goes along way too ;)

    Did Swift tell you what area you will run and how often you'll get home or not yet?
