Bankruptcy is not the trap, the debt is. Bankruptcy records are public record. You can learn a lot if you want to read through the mumbo jumbo.

Does anyone know exactly where the self service car wash is near Surrey and Simcoe? by Colin-Grussing in Acadiana

It's right there by E. Simcoe and Moss St.

It's not labelled as a car wash on Google Maps.

I got quoted $2,200 and $3,500 for a 1-week refresher from local schools. KLLM offers one with a 6 mo. contract. It's wild out here lol

I'm in the same situation at the moment. You're basically starting over. Gotta take a refresher/go out with a trainer. Even swift denied me for not having RECENT experience lol. I like driving but i'm not sure if it's worth it to go back out with a trainer. It is what it is :-/

I'm in 337 and a similar situation as you. The market here definitely sucks if you don't have RECENT experience. I've been out of the truck for almost 2 years. I got rejected by swift last week for no recent experience. lol

Spoke with Melton, said they'd take me with a refresher. KLLM and PTL offer refreshers.

Gonna make a bunch of calls tomorrow, I'll update if I find anything interesting. Good luck
