cool, good to know..i never thought during training it would be swing shifts.now i know what to look forward to..oh joy smh ..i guess its a good thing to get use to the bizarre hours
What it is certain classes & training are around pm times it's what's convenient for the instructors today is fire school evacuation training so it's pm that part in the yard I never seen open early

Hey what's up @tprashad0719 glad to hear you got your foot in they normally call you back between 30-90 days the classes have been close to 30 days apart they have 1 for the end of Sept & Oct don't slack on all that paperwork cause you don't wanna be pressed to fill them out when you get notice......good luck
As for the other people waiting the TSS told us there short people cause of people retiring, leaving & getting promoted they also had hiring freeze for a year & half before which made then short that's why there hiring so much so there's still allot of hope for many
