I don't know about the Drivers thing Scott but the local economy in my area sucks. A friend of mine is trying to support a family of 5 while working part time in an auto parts store. He was full time till they started cutting hours. He's been looking for other emoyment for the last 6 months but nothing for him in the area. He's a good mechanic too and takes side work but he says that's getting slim too. No, the economy isn't 'booming' regardless of what anyone says.


I know a couple of "troubled" kids on the west coast who got into a
12-week pre-job program to learn general work skills and then into union
apprenticeship programs to become skilled workers with steady jobs and
good pay and benefits.
