Beldin, I once worked evenings for three years rebuilding railroad cars. That way I could keep my store open during the day. After 8 hours at that shop I had to bathe for an hour to get the carbon black off me. The job did not pay a lot but it paid the bills and it allowed me to keep my store open. It was hard, dirty work but it worked for me. I could eat anything and never gained an ounce.

Oh, I understand that truck driving is definitely not the best of jobs, ribit ... but, it is a significant segment of employers who are really looking to hire in a time of great unemployment. However, as the article says, potential employees without experience are looking at an investment of time and money to get the proper training to do the job.

As you already know all too well, there's no easy way out ... everybody simply has to take one step at a time. I tell my boys that life ain't easy ... you have to work hard and put up with a lot of crap you'd rather not do, but get over it and get on with it.
