    First week will be crazy. Untill.Wednesday then it gets easier. Its been fun for me, lots of good learning experiences. Most people are helpful, some are.douchebags, and your experience is going to come down to your.trainer. Choose wisely lol. 6500 miles left in my tnt phase, can't to finish.

    Sunday- Arrived at Campus Inn got room and a yellow packet full of paper work. (packet needs to be filled out before you go into your interview)
    Monday- Welcome to Prime meeting, Roll call. until 9am approx. Wait in line for drug screen then wait in line for physical got both of those done about noon. Wait in line for interview compete interview, got white paper name tag. around four pm.
    Tuesday- CBT's 8 of them
    Wednesday-Pre-Trip Class, Meet Instructors (My experience there were about five instructors there and 50 students. Consider yourself lucky if you pick up an instructor on Wednesday.) and Simulator.
