    the orientation is nothing to get through. everyone passes it unless you tell them you have something wrong with you lol. as far as sleep apnea, there will be a form to fill out, just put the answers that they want. don't put that you fall asleep randomly and you'll be fine.

    they will paint a beautiful picture for you while there but really, that place stinks. i just quit last week. you will get good miles for the first few weeks then you'll get like 1700 on average, not worth leaving your house 6 days a week. i did my 6 months and jetted as soon as i could lol

    good luck though, it maybe different for you guys
