Finally Got My Start Date For School . .

I want to thank everyone that keeps this site going, current & full of invaluable information. Thank you from the deepest part of my being ! . .

So I got up this morning & was tired of waiting for my career coach to contact me after jumping thru every hoop she put in front of me. I understand its a long process when you get assistance from the workforce program, but Ive been thru everything they asked of me since september, & the last classes I finished 3 weeks ago & havent heard squat. So I made it a point to go up there to the office, politely put my point across & sit until I received an answer one way or the other. After shuffling me around for almost 3 hrs the director of the facility came out & spoke with me. We sat down, I explained what was going on & he told me wait right here. Came back after about 20 mins handed me a paper with my start date & apologized for the lack of communication & waiting to hear from his staff. When I got out in the parking lot, I sat down in my car & cried . . Happy tears . . I thought "he!! yeah, I made it to school"

Just thought I would share . . .

Congratulations! Good job. Good luck. Keep us posted.

Its that kind of persistence you will need in trucking...so you are well on your way. Congrats

Thats awesome! Good luck i hope it is everything you dream it will be

Congrats. So when do you start? How is the process of narrowing down future companies going?

Good luck in school.

Thank you for the well wishes & congrats from everyone . .

Rainy D- Thanks for the supportive words.

Patrick- My start date is the 21st of Jan, but the narrowing down of companies just keeps getting bigger . . lol. I'm still leaning heavily toward Werner, but walking into the school & actually sitting down with them & talking about different companies, its like Ive started my list all over again.

Yay!!!

You're awesome and your persistence paid off!
