COLGAN Interview

because the person across the room isn't your freind he is a co worker. been through a few ground schools never shared a room and never failed a checkride. if you think sharing a room will help you pass a checkride i guess you can keep thinking that. what if that person snores like a chainsaw, has a different sleep patter, doesnt flush after dropping a duece, what if you just dont get along with the other guy. the list is so long why you shouldn't share rooms. not to mention it is a really big sign of how well(or bad in this case) the company treats its employees.

I agree with you, the excuse that having a roommate helps you pass ground school is just Kool Aid B.S. The company has double occupancy rooms for new hires for one reason only, to save $$$.
With that being said, It's pretty common at regionals to share a room. Colgan is not the only one who does this, but there are some that don't. I personally don't like sharing a room. I'm lucky I had a good roommate but wouldn't want to do it again.
As far as having a issue with your roommate, Colgan will help solve that problem. In my class some guys got their own rooms because one of them snored pretty loudly.

I don't see the big deal- I had a terrible roomate and just took it in stride.

man, i've been in boarding schools since I was 10 years old, I think I can handle jsut about any roommate (unless they are alcoholics)

That interview seemed easy enough.
