    Good morning TripleSix,
    Your statement "Not making a decision is just as bad as making the wrong decision many times." has got me thinking. What I get from this is: If you make a wrong decision at least you're in the moment. And maybe, just maybe there will be enough time to recover from the bad decision and take appropriate action. That is, maybe enough time to stop zigging and start zagging.
    Thanks,
    ONGB

    I would like to say thanks for putting these posts up. I myself am waiting for my orientation to start. I have been trying to decide what all i need to take with me, what to leave at home, and what to expect during my training and you all have sumed it up a bit for me. thanks again

    Travel light, LASTAT 95.... You may get bounced around while training, and that means moving your luggage as well. Much easier to lug 1 suitcase and a sleeping bag than 2 suitcases/sleeping bag/t.v./computer/refridge/tool box/winter clothes etc. Keep in mind, orientation is only the beginning. You have to pass all the requirements, then pass the training time and actually decide you like the lifestyle. Many go to orientation and just as many end up going home at some point and working at 7-11.
