    Thank u for the quick answer very much. I'd be happy to call u, but english is my 2nd language and it'll be difficult for me to talk on the phone. It's much easier to chat for me. Thanks a lot 05fcpbrute, anyway.

    I do speak english, but it's not perfect and I hate it. I have heavy accent. Also it's difficult to talk on the phone, easier to talk to person who is next to you. But I learn and improve my english every day. I hope you understand. It's not my fault that I was born in another country. My english is so much better than for example some indian or chinese doctors in NYC have.

    I sent out (the school faxed them) 5 applications and I have 4 pre-hires. They do job placement and assistance there. Like I said, good school, good people. Give them a call and say hi, then come on out for a tour. Tell them I sent you, they are very nice. You can check out my thread in the schools section "CDS Tractor Trailer Training".
