    In my pretrucking career, I flew so much I had free 1st class upgrades. I came to really hate flying commercial.

    If I never fly again, that would be fine by me.

    So when the state said they’d cover $4k and I had to cover $1500 I was upset but understood, figured I had til August to save up, then they spring a sudden deadline of July on me, and my class won’t start until September or October. I’m starting to think they’re jerking me around

    I’m officially considering a company sponsored training school just to get it back without the stupid wait and see and paying out all the cash so fast. The trouble is finding a company that will run in my area that I can go to. Northern Michigan is kind of difficult to get home to, let alone loads out of.

    Suddenly, the state was awarded more grant funding and I have my whole tuition covered. I can stay home and get my testing out of the way when the next class opens up

    Refresher starts 8-24 for 2 weeks. It can’t come fast enough
