    I meant to ask Turtles how the refresher went before you went to Schneider orientation? also was the flight from Dallas to Phoenix propeller or a regular jet? Cheers

    Orientation went fine. Both instructors were pretty cool and down to earth. The motel they put you in was badly infested with roaches and bedbugs though. All the flights were your standard airport passenger jets...

    Hey question would Schneider send you home for bad hygiene. I have tonsil stones. Things smell awfully bad. Can't do anything until I get the money to.

    If I can smell them from 5 feet away, maybe.

    Gargle regularly, chew gum to make the smell.

    Had to Google that one, warm salt water gargle should help

    It's pretty bad need to get them removed. But just don't won't to go and waste my time. If they send me home for something I can't help. I'm a very clean person just happen to me so I have to deal. Any inside information will help. Thanks

    I'm sure you've read all the same articles that I did last night after reading your post.
    I had never heard of such a thing. So if you don't feel comfortable trying to remove them yourself I wouldn't either go with the specific types of mouthwash that all these articles were speaking of or if they're to costly I would go with the warm salt water option and gargle a few times a day.
    In addition to a large supply of Altoids Breath Mints.
    Schneider is pretty Anal but, unless you show up for orientation unshaven and unshowerd with barbuque stains on your shirt.( You get the idea) I wouldn't worry about it.

    Other than that I'm in great shape. And can drive pretty good, fresh out of school. Double cluchting is good. Just need practice on down shifting. Do you get paid at the end of orientation or day by day. What happens if you don't finish do they still pay you for the days you did.
