I wish you luck, but 80,000 lb's and on schedule 3? think about cr england. the recruiter there said she had a driver on 4 xanex a day.( alleged) i understand you must have some severe health problems, but now i'm paranoid about my nightly glass of wine. i'm just saying, maybe think about diesal mechanics. my ex made a healthy income and never left the shop. the WIA can teach you that too and buy your tools. you would be a welcome sight to all stranded drivers.

Update on workforce investment act (WIA)
i just got back from a workshop. necessary for scholarships. we have to take a work keys test this week,its federal so its good all over. they told us they have the money and if they don't use it they lose it. here they pay up to $4ooo for school plus supplies,gas,tools, whatever you need. we've all put in our money so get in there and get the benefits. oh yeah,brett, the practise test had one on reading a psi gauge. i got that one right!

If driver solutions " can't help me at this time " should i give up on paid CDL training?
Have some faith,pell grants and loans can be dealt with if you are willing. consolidate,start making payments. as long as you are trying,it will count. i was amazed the unemployment office even let me in the door. i have a college degree that i never even picked up the diploma on . i've been self employed as a dog groomer and a horse trainer for, well im a lady so i'll just say longer than brett drove a truck.(maybe). i have to prove i've worked at all. thank you IRS for making me prove it every year . and the year before that,etc.but i am working the tests on this site daily,between the few dogs the economy has left me. i've said here before,i'm single, my child is disabled and her dad is deceased. but if the gov't gives me a hand i'm taking it. i have to make this work. you have to decide if this is what you want and stop it with reasons you can't make it. if i don't ,taking these tests and just listening to the guys on here, will not have been a waste of time

Test taking advice and question
this sounds obvious, but read the question. i have missed a lot of questions in which i knew the correct answer. the terms "except" "all of these" "which is correct" etc. have tripped me up more than it would have if i had read the question until i fully understood what it wanted. are the tests timed and if so how long.

Sorry About That! Deleted The Wrong Stuff
Good grief brett. how you learned to do this so well is amazing to me considering all your years on the road. this is one of the most well formatted and complex sites i've seen. so you made a mistake,i didnt even notice. still working on your tests 4-6 hours a day. i've even started hanging out at the local truck stop. the drivers are always helpful when i tell them what i've learned.i hit them at the pumps so i don't slow them down.

Go to your unemployment office. they have a program i am going thru called The Workforce Investment Act. they will send you to Extramile in Bishopville. they only get paid if you get a job.
