HELP CONVICTED FELON

Im not giving up
Im not giving up
That's the spirit. I had two formerly convicted felons in my CDL class. (We were a heck-of-a, motley crew!) One had just finished 30 years of hard time and had 4.5 years of probation left. During probation he won't be able to leave the state. The other had way lesser stuff but got a local job 2 weeks after school ended. I will ask both of my classmates what their take is on it and then get back on here and tell you what I find.

I'm in Colorado and the felon in my class who still has almost 5 years probation left also has a class B. I'll see if I can ask around. He was a can-do guy, so I'll see how he's doing, if I can get hold of whoever has his contact info.

Which company did you get hired with ?im gone have to try to get a loan to go to school
I finished school a few weeks ago and I'm applying for jobs and interviewing, starting tomorrow. I would check with your state Workforce too, for funding. That's how I got funded. It took a few months for that to go through, but I really needed assistance and with some hard work, I got approved so I only paid for my steel-toed boots and fuel to get there (still tough on my wallet but I made it)

Maybe Brett and the other experienced guys have more ideas for school funding ...
... and your workforce should have other programs to suggest too - at least to point you in the right direction. If you're up for digging around for information, there might be other avenues for assistance, who knows?
