Hardship with family emergency caused me to have to leave school

I missed talking to my grandfather on his death bed. But I did get to his funeral.
And this was driving my own truck. Due to not being able to get a load home. And could not afford the fuel for like 1,700 miles to get home.

 

Don't want to go back?

 

Did you read the contract?

Most likely you can quit but you still need to pay for it.

 

I cannot answer that until you have read the contract. If you quit now, you PROBABLY will be billed for the tuition.

Im not a lawyer don't pretend to know anything without having your contract in front on the table.

You can probably assume that trucking has no value to your family even if they are dying. Its YOU that is the commodity and keeps the freight rolling.

 

Be very careful here regarding the parent's illness. Depending on the physical limitations or any other limiting problems at basic living such as bathing, cooking, hydrating and other related life chores, if the parent is too sick to do these things, you can provide caregiving for a while. Then you get exhausted if not outright frusterated and angry. Not to mention the relentless drain on the finances to nothing.

The Doctor has certain powers that he may choose to write orders to make it possible for you to have better care for that parent. Don't go into this thing blind. It's a really big deal here. At some point you will need help.

 

Also depends on how much time you invested with the school.
If you were two days from testing out, then unlikely. If it was your first day you likely will get some back.

At my school, it was ...
1st week get 50% back.
2nd week get 25% back.
3rd and 4th week, owe full amount.

But like others said, it's in your contract. You need to read it and see. Also you need to communicate with the school. They want your money so will be willing to work with you if they know what is going on.

 

You signed your name on that contract.
That should mean something.
Or are you meaningless?
