    Got an email today saying that due to budget constraints, the cdl school in Indy is getting shut down.
    Knight will still have Squire program for those who have class A already but will not offer cdl school to those without CDL.

    wow really? I just graduated from there 2 weeks back. Great instructors. I've actually been waiting for a non smoking trainer to get my 4 weeks done. I was told non smokers are a premium, but perhaps this might not help things either.

    Was it an email from a recruiter? I guess I'm going to have to call the training manager tomorrow and see what is going on. That is crazy. I feel bad for those guys. Like I said, they are top notch trainers. They took me, I had never been in a semi or shifted a manual, and taught me. I was able to pass my exam.

    Oh did it say when it was shutting down?

    I was accepted into Olive Branch MS school, then told on the first day of my orientation that school is being shut down unexpectedly? I called the Phoenix School, and they are still operating, but are no longer going to pay for transportation to school, or room for two weeks...what gives?

    Recruiter said budget constraints. Sucks really bad for people who quit job already to go to school. I hope the staff and instructors all find work. Just plain sucks!

    Yes, me too. Lots of good people there that I met. Wish they could have given more of a warning before dropping the hatchet on everyone!
