Starting Maverick orientation next week...

Good luck to you. Hey, how are things in Bossier City? I spent a few years at Barksdale AFB in the early 80's.

 

Orientation starts Sunday morning

 

Cool i live in Bossier City too. Currently waiting on TMC and Mcelroy to call me back. I like what I hear about Mcelroy. Haven't decided yet, also thinking about Maverick.

 

Oh, no doubt. Back then it was pretty easy to get in. I remember a place in town, Circle in The Square I think, that had bars etc. Lotsa fun for young'n.

 

TMC said they want experience? I have none and their looking at me. They got me a little anxious right now cause the recruiter told me to call him Friday and I did twice and didn't answer. Hopefully it's because it was in the afternoon and went home or something.

 

I just started orientation today. You'll need to get here Saturday cause orientation starts Sunday morning at 0700. They don't tell you when you get here, but you need to bring to class that morning your atlas, SS card, CDL, blank check, passport and TWIC card if you have them. The first day is pretty easy you go through on the computer and make sure all your info is correct and all of that good stuff. We actually got behind today cause there were problems with the computers. We do our DOT physical and ability test tomorrow along with drug test. Once you get here you'll have the opportunity to go to Wal-Mart to get food and stuff for breakfast and dinner. They proved lunch all the way until Thursday. It is pretty much Pizza hut or Subway. In the Maverick Hotel you have a microwave down stairs with large fridges. You have small fridges in the rooms to keep some food and stuff in. No tv's in the room and you don't even lock the doors. They have a small lock box you can put things in but its only big enough to put a wallet and such in. They have linen and such for the beds and proved towels and such for the bathrooms. I'll post back and let you know how tomorrow goes. If you think of any questions just let me know and I'll hit you back.
