Alright brothers looks like my drug test and background are cleared.PG&E just called and confirmed... only thing left now is the post-offer. I go this monday aug 22. I am a lil nervous. I know its not too crazy but in reality when you get nervous or your adrenaline starts pumpin' you tend to raise your heart rate. I just need 2 relax and breath calmly... Hopefully i will be 1 of the first 25 guys to finish everything so i can be in the upcoming class (SEPT. 6)...if not the next class is SEPT 27. Wish all you out there who are in the same boat the best of luck.
