Funny you say that because I too for years couldn't stand the smell of the sim center or hotel we stayed at in Charlotte after my stint there as a new hire. My 46 year old sim partner also broke down in tears one day. This was 10 years ago. It has given me a lot of confidence now that I'm elsewhere and going through their training program. Awac has softened up a bit over the years and will give far more opportunities to redeem yourself should you fail or need more time along the way. It's hard but fair.
