Welcome to the FAA

Yesterday I managed to complete my first day with the FAA. I can't really say much about it since it was a day full of sitting around listening to people talk about rules and benefits and such. Basically the entire day was spent in indoctrination. There with me were 2 more CTI students, one from ERAU although I don't recognize him, 2 VRA's from the Navy, and one girl who's here for retraining. The highlight of the day, although it wasn't nearly as dramatic as it sounds was the taking the oath of office and swearing in for government service. For the rest of this week and next week we're on night shift so the work schedule is 1530 - 2400.

After work went to the landlord's place, Kim's, for dinner. Met some more students, one of whom is in the class that's my class's opposite. He warned me of the OTS kids we'll be meeting up with today. Talked with Kim and her family for a bit before driving home. I spent the rest of the night trying to stay awake so I could readjust to the night schedule. Its like going right back to the sleeping schedule I was on when I was unemployed, although now I don't get to run at 1700.

That's all for now. Today and for the next couple weeks will be the ever exciting class work I've heard so much about. Can't wait...
