Going to orientation in Phoenix

The wait could be cause of the holidays coming up...

 

That's the crappy part, I have the ability to wait for a while (not too long of course but a month or 5 weeks would be ok) and the longer I have to wait to get coded I'm sure puts me further and further down the list. The problem is now that tomorrow 40 + other people are going to get coded and will they be put above me? I would think not but again no one tells you anything so there is no way to know.

Appreciate the thoughts.

 

Definitely bring the boots and gloves. They will loan everything else. Tomorrow we practice chaining/strapping down random objects and that will basically consist of the training I believe. It is only the two days.

 

That's what I was told.. 2 Days of tie/strapping.. Then go out with Mentor, Hopefully no long wait. I'll be coming from the Houston area.

 

did a quick test on the basics of tie downs, strapping, x-ties, v-boards, etc. today. That basically consisted of the day, took apart the chains and straps on the coil again and put it back together as well. Got coded also. Then got told to go home and wait.

So that's that, started academy on 10-11 and got done with everything on 11-5. The stuff I know now compared to less than a month ago is crazy. It feels like it's been so much longer than that.

 

Congrats... Let Us/Me know how long till You get a Mentor..

 

Thanks my friend, we'll do. Good luck when you come down here.
