    Wow no offense but if you where serious about driving or working for sni you would have over come that problem. Indy is a huge town there's plenty of hotels that are reasonable if you wanted to go that route. Just couple exits South there is a red roof in $47 a night. If there's a will there a way. As for that driver snoring don't worry he'll be doing a sleep study test and put on a cpap machine. Did they bother telling you about that.

    No offense taken. I am very serious about driving and SNI. I probably failed to note that I was there on a shoestring budget, a baby's shoestring at that. I could have afforded maybe one night somewhere else and that was it and wouldn't solve the situation of and I 3 more days of dealing with this crap.

    Had I known about the Red Roof Inn I would have headed there, alas they never mentioned it and at this point in time I was so sleep deprived I wasn't thinking clearly. Was never told about a sleep study and cpap machine. The whole point is that NO ONE should have to deal with kind of crap.

    I will return to SNI at a later date.I spoke to my recruiter and he advise me to let them know when I was returning. In the meantime I will need to find a Class B job to pay some bills and save up for a room somewhere else when I return.

    This kinda makes me nervous. I'm supposed to be starting orientation in Indianapolis in a couple of weeks. Is this typical of the experience at that OC/hotel?

    Typical ? Probably not. This was MY experience. You might luck out and have a great roomie that doesn't snore loud enough to wake the dead. You will love Schneider as all the instructors I encountered were great. Had they could have arranged a single room I would still be there.

    I would have said " hey, arrange a private room for me, and take it out of my first few checks"

    nevertheless, you left on GOOD terms, and have a plan on how to go back: you'll be fine!
     
    Drac1985 and Swamprat55 Thank this.

    Or when you park in a nice quiet spot and at 3am some guy hauling pigs decides to park right next to you when there is 1000 open spots well away from where you are at

    Even THAT kind of noise would be preferable.

    Noise coming in from the outside has never been an issue.
