My time at PRIME.

Hello! I dont know whom Im asking this to, but, I have LOTS of questions!! I am somewhat experienced...sort of...I had my CDL's at one time, but, it was back in the 90's...then I dropped it down a bit, Just down on Class, because I DIDNT get the chance to use the CDLs at all...Had problems getting hired. so Now I hold a Class "C" CDL....I paid $3600 back then!! THEN...I decided now after all this time, after putting MY Dream and MY LIFE on Hold for various reasons...decided after 10 years or so...To TRY this again!! sooo I went thru another recruiting deal...and ended up going to Peoria school....WELL...I just BARELYYY Didnt make it...The dang 45 degree backing got me!! THEN...I went to another company sponsored school and they did alright in training us...BUT!!! They had the SHADIEST Examiners in the or by the IL//Indiana border...of course I was on the IL side, well....I DIDNT get to even TEST THERE....I Got sooo UPSET and so aggravated....decided to come back home and TRY to get them here...well, then you run in to the problem of getting a truck to try to get them...sooo Needless to SAYYY!! Do you have any advice or anything you can tell me or help me with??!! Could I STILL be accepted into a program...or can another school or company HELP Me, also??!! I think I got the Shaft end of the deal...with that OTHER Place...not going to mention the name, as of yet. Please...I will wait for Reply.
