How long is the track labor training at the Kansas training center?.

Asked June 15, 2023

1 month, do not get comfortable where you are stationed because you will be shipped off less than a month after starting to go to Kansas for a pointless training program. Then once the TOTAL 15 week training period is over you WILL be forcibly moved out of where you hired on. You are a small insignificant pin in a machine that doesn’t need you.

Will a pacemaker disqualify me?

Asked April 4, 2023

I doubt it, you need to be able to physically do the job. Ex. see colors, hear, climb on equipment, occasionally lift 70 lbs (usually the heaviest thing I carry is my lunch box and luggage) When I hired on they tested the strength/range of motion of my knees and shoulders and you'll have to pass a drug test. I don't think they can disqualify you over any medical condition.
