That's actually a good one.

When you get to your facility it, what you need to know will bear no resembelance to what you learned at the Academy. I remember the maps at the center compared to that thing at the Academy, and I was certain there was no way a person could remember everything on it.

1. that you need to wear khakis and a polo to work.

2. that your not a BUM at the academy and you are at your facility.

3. academy management cares a whole more about you than your facility management.
