I have a meeting tomorrow with the Lt. Today was my last day of training with the FTO. I have been trying my damnest to learn the codes and understand them. Others have been helping me study and teach them to me. I really want this job.
I am trying not to think the worst about tomorrow. I wasn't sure where to post this so here it is . I am not pissed off. Not sure what I am feeling.

Is this meeting a standard part of the process, or are you being "called ont he carpet"? What feed back have you been getting from your FTO(s) ?
I only had one FTO and she has been trying to help me learn the codes. When other officers are radioing in. I tell her what the calls mean that are coming in from them and where they are coming from. So she knows I know. Yesterday she said on a scale from 10 to 1 (10 being the highest-I think). That I was in the lows 4,which sucks because I know I can do it and I know the codes and the meanings. It is just having to get them stuck in my head. Yesterday she said she knows I am trying my hardest which I am.
Last night,when my father was calling off the 9 codes. I was giving him the meanings. There were a few that I had to think but the rest I knew and I could tell him.
