Thanks G/Man, buddy bill, and ORT Wife! It's nice to come here when I need a break, and as you can probably surmise from the frequency of my...
It seems, at least to me, that the ones who want to make it work, most of the time, can. Sometimes it takes more than either is willing to give,...
Kenny, my husband went to the same school and he gave the same basic break down you mentioned. He really felt like he received a good education in...
My husband actually attended and graduated from their Truck Driver Training program. He was the 2001st graduate of the program since they...

Thanks GMan! I hope I will get to meet some of them. My kids are amazing, and they bring me so much joy, but I won't lie, I'm gonna miss the...
