Thumbs up FPL finally called!
Well I have been waiting for FPL(T&MC) to call me for 6 months already. They said it would have started in July, but better late than never I guess. So I will be attending climbing school sometime in the near future, possibly a few weeks from now.
I was wondering if any of you vets had advice/tips on climbing. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.....

Being a Florida native.. I can say , be thankful you are doing it in this time of year, and not in July.

Default Thanks!

Thanks for the advice and support. I hope everyone I come into contact with @FPL has the same attitude as you guys. I am still waiting for the date, hopefully it wont take another year for the recruiter to e-mail it to me.
