    Thanks again, unfortunately from what I’ve noticed on their application they’re not currently hiring from this far south of Florida. I’ll keep looking however, this’ll probably be a sign that its probably in my best interest to go to that Sheridan tech school for my cdl a and driver training.

    Hardly anyone pays for the class at the community college
    There’s a grant for almost everyone .

    You could go knock on the doors of the plentiful Food Service and LTL companies down there and see if any of them have a dock-to-driver type apprentice program. Those type things do exist.

    Might also contact Leonard's Express and see if they'd do the sponsor type program at their school on their property in Farmington, NY.

    Also might want to see if you can make contact with John Boy on the Abilene thread. He lives down there and used to train for Abilene. He may have some ideas.
     
    Lonesome and Boondock Thank this.
