Celadon Orientation?
 
Could someone tell me about the "dorm rooms" Celadon has in Indy. Recruiter said it was a "nice" campus. Is it clean, I don't mean pristine, just livable, not like a hooker hotel. :lol:

wouldn't it be better if it was a hooker motel? seems like training would go a little faster.

:lol:

I have a couple of drivers in there now....they havent complained or anything. Thats about the best I can do. Heck, its only 2 1/2 days and you get 3 meals a day.....how bad could it be?

Same thing could be said of a jail. :P :P :lol: :lol:

hell, jail wouldnt be that bad for a couple of days if they paid you to be there.

Well funny this comes up as I had a driver in class today that was so tired because he couldn't sleep because he was so cold!

A driver said he could vouch for him because @ 3:00 am he woke up to use the bathroom to find the "tired" guy in the hall with gloves, coat etc on trying to get warm. I guess it depends on you. They are what's called like jail cells, you share a room with someone (hopefully that someone has curtiosy) and they are on the outside of the walls meaning they can be either hot or cold. I had a driver claiming he was to hot and the cold guy was like what "was" his room number (he didn't last through class due to his own reasoning). So that was his main complaint.

If you go there take an extra blanket in the winter

That's all driver info that I related I really have no clue as I have never slept in them :lol:

I was going to add, stop in and say hi to me in the log department it would be nice if you join us!

When are you doing orientation?

My signature is in the log section :lol: I may not be the one doing class though

thanks for the info
 
Well thank-you for the info. To the person who said it can't be that bad, let me tell you of one experiance I had, it is the reason I asked about the cleanliness. I went with CRST 5 years ago, thier idea of rooms was a very used and old hotel that was one of those rent by the hour places before they bought it. The really gross thing was it still had all the furniture and mattresses from when it was a hooker hotel. I slept in a recliner in the driver lounge for my entire orientation. I guess it all is what you are willing to accept. I start on Monday. I will let you know. Wish me luck!!!
