Thanks for all the replies guys. It's really helpful since I don't have any experience in that area. I did work on armored trucks with three man crew and we were in close quarters under stressful conditions but we didn't sleep in the truck LOL.
I'm not so concerned now as it seems like maybe the trainers will be respectful. I'm easy to get along with as long as I don't get demeaned or yelled at, and I'm always seeking to improve myself.
Thanks again ☺️

I might have settled one thing. If I was to train again which probably will not happen, but if.
No spouses allowed. The last one I trained was like opening a jar labeled moonshine and finding yourself with a 150 pound mountain cat coming up your shirt sleeve. Challenges enough to give me nightmares and I don't earn those easily.FerrissWheel Thanks this. -

I don't know if people had too many experiences with very large full grown turkeys. The kind that will make for a whole family feast on thanksgiving.
Go to the local farm museum with one or three ranging in a common area somewhere. Have a seat and work on your lunch. As long you can assert your dominance and not be bothered eating that lunch or for your location on THEIR territory (Meaning you need to leave) and show these birds who is the top apex predator in their zone today. They will leave you alone.
IF I catch a student running away from them crying that their pecking hurts or somehow they wont leave him alone, then how am I to teach that student to hold the lane he has already when 4 people dive for it in the middle of Dallas Rush Hour?FerrissWheel Thanks this. -
Female hygene products. Spare boxes tampons or pads as necessary to support female during her training. Required makeup supplies that can take a little temperature differences, a little bit of hydrogen peroxide and other small fluids to allow the female to take care of their vanity when they get around to it. Accomodation in the shower only for themselves and seperate laundires and so on. Pinesol and bleach mixture 10% usually to disinfect the cab and so forth so that two humans in that tiny space do not make each other sick.
Need I go on? There are other female issues that come up from time to time as well. Should I explain them carefully to you?
As far as myself I keep it cool with students either male or female. However if it is time for us to take off and have time off, that female is going home. Or whever she chooses for time off. We will meet again at the truck to continue the work after time off only I might be in jail a short time for making too much party. Who knows.
Now that I wrote all that out, is all of this any clearer to you? Or do I need to break out the 128 color set and a stack of paper plates? -
I understood the first part, I just didn't know what you meant about her going away. I should have limited what I quoted of your post to the relevant portion. Anyway, thank you for explaining. No need to be snarky though.
