    no problem broke, I go back to the unemployment office on july 16 th for a 2nd meeting with the wia case worker here in sc. when I went last week to check into the program the first case worker told me he didnt see a problem. would be training with tri county tech school near here which is good. 4 weeks. Also i dont have to pre hire He said I would just have to look after I got my cdl and keep them informed as to how I was doing in the job search.I am looking now will prob run solo or if I find someone I like to run team than I will. all depends. good luck and if you hear anything let me know

    i just called another school b/c i rememberd the one near me is pretty new with in a year or so. So i called another one about an hour away and explained my problem. They seem to be a little more in their game. I hate to travel an hour to a from, but if thats whats it takes thats what it takes.

    Now that i think about it when i applied to school #1 all i done was fill in the blanks with my information, they said they would call a few companies and seen what happen, then gave me the news that i needed to find a "pre hire"

    school #2 says come on in fill out some info, fill out some apps, get a company to take the bait and bam, i should be in the WIA's pocket, going threw school and landing a job all before you can say "well i'll be ######"

    guess we'll see, going to the school tomarrow.
