"The Service Manager Bridge course was awesome! The instructor was excellent! Awesome class AND an exam pass, I couldn't ask for anything more...except maybe another round of those fresh, crunchy Oreo cookies you guys provided...or maybe another lip-smacking Reuben which I talked about for days! Classmates, thanks for making it a most enjoyable week."
