Default Re: Started Training

Update:

Finished 767 oral exam yesterday. Passed, but examiner said I was weak on a couple of areas. He then started looking up my "weak" areas in the training objectives, then had to admit that I wasn't supposed to know the stuff he was asking questions about. Sure made me feel stupid during the oral, though. Training instructors say the "new" course will start the end of the month, cutting 10 days of instruction before the oral down to 4 days plus oral. Training management is reportedly willing to accept a 20% failure rate due to the shorter course. I wonder if the trainees were asked their opinion on that?

On another note, I picked up my new motorcycle after finishing the oral and commuting home. Of course, it was raining, so I got to brave the elements on its' first ride. Loved every minute, though.
