He was a lot more welcoming and seemed like he really wanted to help me get through this. Of course I know it's just business.
I understand anxiety, and it sucks that you got a bad recruiter, but trust me when I tell you to meet some of the instructors at Sage and talk to them instead, since you will never see the salesperson again once you sign up. If you have bad anxiety the worst thing that can happen to you is to struggle at a place like Roadmaster where there are several students in the sleeper waiting their turn and watching your every move. At Sage it's just you and the instructor, and they take their time and don't pressure you. Just something to think about...
