They told me I have two options for the shifts..........
Anyways the orientation is the 28th and I picked the 7am slot...
As for moving.... Burlington is an amazing city to live in, housing is not cheap but its an amazing CLEAN city. I've been living here for the past two months and I don't really have any intentions of moving. Also it should be easy for you to find something here, there are so many condos to choose from in a vast array of price ranges.
