    So almost 13 years ago (December 25th will be 13) my son was born. I was driving for Schneider but my wife was not only Bi-Polar but going through Post-Pardon (or whatever you call it, I called it bat crazy) so I came off of the truck. Since then I went to school to learn I. T. work. I have a degree in the field but the jobs are just not there in this part of the country. Well actually there are a few but the market is saturated. I have since remarried and I am ready get out of a cubicle and go drive. My issue is I gave up my CDL in 2004. That said, I am pretty much back at square one. I miss driving, and am ready to go. I suspect I will have to find a company that has training as I have to re-apply for my CDL and all. Any suggestions on a company that I can get through the process a bit faster. Most schools take forever. Don't get me wrong. I want to make sure I have all my skillset I need, but don't feel that I will have to do a LOT of learning new skills. Most of it should come back rather quickly. Suggestions???​
