School just put class off for a week, I'm not happy....

I feel your pain, mine got pushed back another three weeks. Beginning to wonder if I'll ever work again. LOL

 

yes, this does stink, suck, whatever. but they need a certain amount of students per instructor ratio, or instructors just do not get to work, and are told to stay home..........and that stinks, sucks as well.......

i might add, try not to anticipate graduation and any job you go to by any time line. things happen and as you are a a witness, they do.

like Murphy's Law, "anything that can go wrong, WILL go wrong".

it would be better to "set up" any orientation during your 2 final weeks of school 3 tops..........not from day 1...........

the chances of that particular company hiring you would be less now due to others going to work there. and i might add, that the trucking company can have problems as well.........and they have to turn away students.

so count your blessings, but do not "over-anticipate" circumstances you cannot control.

 

personally i do not know how that WIA stuff works.......i let the office people fart around with that...........but i'll have to "wonder" if you can try another school, i mean everything is all set up now as it is. let me relate something, which might NOT apply to you.

we had a student, an older guy. he was having the toughest time possible backing up. after 3 weeks, he wanted to quit. he said he was going to go back to the WIA, and try something else..........we already knew that answer and told him, "you chose this, and its all they are going to pay for, you had ONE chance, that's all you get"............

he stayed in school.............and got his CDL...........

now of course, you are NOT going from trucking to plumbing........but yet, you are wanting to "set up" another school...........there may be even MOORE delays doing this, but maybe not...........who knows.........??

i say stick with it, you're committed (not in the insane way, but maybe so?) since you want to drive a truck...........one HAS to be insane........dun't ya thunk.........????
PS, i would just call that WIA and ask them first before you go ask the other school any questions

 

HHMMmmmmm..........

they already got the first check.............??

you might be "locked into" this school now..........

 

whoa...........paid in full............??

believe it or not, NOT IN MY STATE.............!!

we get paid, when the state (seemingly) wants to. this i got from the gal in my office that handles the WIA..........

i don't see the school giving back any money, and probably by agreements/rules, the school CAN delay classes............

oh well.............

 

The school I'm dealing with said if the start date changed that would mean having to do more paper work. Basically the same paper work with a new start date. I'm in Michigan so it might be different in KY.
