    Perfect location for decent home time.

    And a shot at intermodal if that's what you're looking at.

    Good luck!

    I also hope they find a more suitable (read: larger) facility for Atlanta. Weekends there were virtually hopeless.

    I'd like to actually hear from a danged recruiter....

    We have one at school today but I'm not going in at 11:45 when I don't have to be there until 5:30 this evening due to night driving. I'd just sit on my bum and wait, because I live 40 miles from school.

    Gary did Atlanta, too. He said that the place was great. You'll probably stay in Stockbridge and get take the shuttle to the school. The hotel, The Sleep In, was very nice. I think that you'll like it.

    I did get my confirmation emails today. Sleep Inn (Stockbridge) I'm about an hour and a half from there. They said they couldn't get me a bus but would cover gas. Not worried about that. I'm actually pumped about having my vehicle there. This is one thing I'm finding hard to get a straight answer on. After orientation, will I go straight out with a trainer? The email's said NOTHING about being prepared for that. I figure if people are being sent by bus they would say be prepared for a training trip as well. I guess I'll prepare to do that anyway in case. Which leads me to my next question. While I'm out on the road training for 7-10 days. Can I leave my car at the OC? If not I can always have someone come pick it up. No big. Any insight to this would be awesome.

    I did check out the hotel online. Looks very nice. I'm anxiously awaiting heading up there on Monday. Oh just because I'm driving to the hotel, I will be using the shuttle everyday. I was hoping someone on here was going Monday as well. Guess I might bump into them at the hotel.
