I hate nursing and want to be a trucker.

Hi. I am a 51-year-old female from N.H. I had a midlife crisis at 45 and decided to go to nursing school. I barely passed, it took me a year to get my license, and now I am having a hard time finding a job. Mostly because I don't think it is right for me and I got scared of the responsibility and can't work at the pace that 30-year-old nurses do. With that said, I was a school bus driver 15 years ago and have kept my CDL-B with the belief that "you never know".

Well now I know! I'd love to drive a truck! I want to go to a trucking company that will train (or retrain) me. Any words of wisdom about this type of training. I am thinking of C.R. England. Yes? No?

I'd appreciate any input from anyone! Thank you! :)
