The orientation for cfi lasted a week and I thought that was long. If it's two weeks, it must be a looooooot of paperwork!

Yeah, 2 weeks Jumbo..

First few days is just paperwork, videos BS.
Then the rest of the time, I'll just be riding along with one of their drivers on a rite aid pharmacy account so I can get "Ryderized" and learn how to do the onboard computer logs and whatever else I may need to know.
I aint gonna complain...Yet...They're payin me to go for a ride.
Well I'm off!

I only had one day of paperwork and videos. Longest day of my life. When you get into the ridealong program it gets interesting though. I was my trainers first trainee. I learned alot from him in that week. So good luck.

that reminds me, my new company still hasn't made me watch their safety and homeland security vids yet. I hope it's not required by law, but i'll bet it is. I'm debating if i should remind them....
