    I decided not to attend Orientation at the last minute..so never got on the bus. I was having second thoughts about it and decided it wasn't a company I wanted to work with. I know I need to contact my recruiter tomorrow. What do I tell them? Will this affect my DAC report if I never even attended?

    Don't think they can ding your DAC until you're an employee.

    You are a Man in a Man business. You have no reason to lie. Call them, tell them you changed your mind. Send them the tickets back. No reason to burn a bridge.

    Of course, I am just assuming the man thing. Changing your mind could be a woman thing.
