    I may have missed it, but is there any chance you can get a small loan? I know Schneider would have reimburse just about any accredited school I went to back when I was looking at companies and schools. Even if they don't reimburse you, you could make payments on the loan once you get hired on.

    Oh I missed that you are living at home...man just get your license with the auto restriction and when your year is up, rent/borrow a truck to redo the road test with the manual tranny. You only have to do the road portion to get the auto restriction lifted.

    Seems like the biggest hurdle here is your own negative attitude

    Dreams are horrible things to have. You definitely should give up on them.

    So was my dream of being a rockstar musician. Guess what! I made a decent living at it for the better part of 26 years. Still play and make great money when I get the chance. Know why? I didn’t give up. With that said,

    Great story bro!

    Put your big boy pants on and do it or stop whining! Holy heII!!!
