	NOTHING wrong with company-paid training. I just think you should check these schools out before going into indentured servitude for a year. Most likely, you will qualify for at least a partial grant to finance it!

	Thank you for your reply. I will check into these options, however, my family is in dire straights financially, so paying for a school isn't an option. I don't mind driving to pay off a school. I just want to get going again. I'm talking to a few companies that have been mentioned in this thread.
 
 Cheers!austinmike and Chinatown Thank this.
