When driving to new hire class at the P I suggest listening to Pink Floyd's The Wall.... by the time you hit 240 you should have the pyramid in your rearview mirror....

You better run like hell
You better make your face up in
Your favourite disguise
With your button down lips and your
Roller blind eyes
With your empty smile
And your hungry heart
Feel the bile rising from your guilty past
With your nerves in tatters
When the cockleshell shatters
And the hammers batter
Down the door
You better fun like hell
You better dun all day
And run all night
And keep your dirty feelings
Deep inside
And if you take your girlfriend
Out tonight,
You better park the car
Well out of sight
Cos if they catch you in the back seat
Trying to pick her locks
They’re gonna send you back to mother
In a cardboard box
You better run
 
It's that bad !!! Long story short, I interviewed for Express One (Pinnacles former namesake). While I was in for the Q&A another candidate stepped out side for a smoke. Two guys pull in to the parking lot stick a gun out the window and take his wallet, watch and briefcase and then just drive up the road. It was the middle of the day but that didn't slow them down at all. I know there are some folks who like MEM, but in my opinion it is a Sh*&^ Hole. I would take DTW over MEM. It's that bad.
 
I heard the same thing about a sim instructor at FSI. The windows are reflective and you can't see outside at night. The guy came back inside from a smoke all f'd up and there were newbies a few feet away inside.
