I appreciate that advice @Omega1 . My post 9-11 benefits are tapped out as I used them to go to college at WSU. I double majored in criminal justice and psychology - but didn't want to become a cop like most of my buddies who just ended up becoming bitter (barely) functional alcoholics. I became disenchanted with the psychology field once I realized it's nothing more than an educated guess based off popularly accepted opinion which changes every 10 years or so - and if you don't adopt feminist ideals you'll have a hell of a time getting onto the PhD track.
But I'm not complaining - I was able to work with my local VA rep to secure a $200 giftcard for food expenses once I start school Monday the 10th. I did end up going with Wilson as they had the best package and the only out of pocket costs I'll have is $150 for drug test & dot physical. They also advance us $200 a week during training, which not even Swift provided (and I found out Swift makes you pay back the entire cost of tuition [$3,700] during your first year as company driver).

I really do appreciate everyone in this thread who gave me sound advice, especially since you all seem to know what the hell you're talking about. Wish this greenhorn some good luck!
