Best part, new hires everywhere. Sure beats being here post 9-11 furloughing and mid BK when the only people in the training center were World crews and the weeds and grass were out of hand as the landscapers wouldn't touch the place.
Request the "hotel motel Holiday Inn." Won't be disappointed.

I did! Talk about nice. Get in a work out and shower every day. Man, Richard made this a place that is quite tolerable. Even hit up the Wal Mart and pharmacy there recently. Impressed.
Wish that gym was easier to get to from the terminal for those long sits.
*Edit* Anyone know if the TOC gym is easier to get to and an option for the long Atlanta sit? Know it won't likely be promoted as how do you reach out and tap a pilot for a pop up "ready reserve" assignment if they are over there.

Thankfully though, CQ is so short nowadays, even if it's a downgrade, it won't matter.
All I need is a decent gym.
