    Ok so I had talked to my trainer today and the conservation started out something to the effect of ; hi I will be your trainer for the next 35 days ( wait wtf 35 days ) so I see where this is going , so he allready is keeping my one week longer then I actually have to be on the truck . Now I know I need 200 hrs or 28 days , so from what it sounds like is these guys can short us hrs so they can keep us there longer , to benifit them ..

    I may have to question this tomorrow to the training dept. Cause if I can finish in the 28 days why the hell should they be allowed to keep me an extra week ....


    Now am I wrong for thinking something is wrong with this picture ????????????
    Need some advise on this

    I cant give no advice, but nothing wrong with extra training. Especially goin into the winter season. its only extra 7 days, not like 2 or more weeks.But either way, goodluck on your adventures.

    NP, thats kinda why im goin in january, get the brutal months with a trainer, so I can drill him with every question I got. Plus I need to wrap up things at home first.
