    Default I found a story with some truth to it!

    The headline is certainly true: "Demand for truckers is down even as enrollment at driving schools is up"

    The statistics are certainly . . statistics: "A research report released last week by an analyst from KeyBanc Capital Markets indicates that trucking companies' demand has fallen by as much as 20 percent since November, which will lead to smaller profits."

    Just once I would like to see: "Whether or not you actually get a job, let alone the job you want, you'll still owe the tuition. Thanks for applying!"

    And the sadder thing is that many of these applicants also have college underneath them.

    It just goes to show that everyone's going to have to be picky about everything from now on.
    Follow your dreams, more like follow the bread-basket.

    I don't think anyone has anything to worry about the schools being full.

    Always remember. Anyone can learn to drive a truck.

    Only a few of those will stay to be truck drivers.

    Deja moo. It's when you feel you have heard this BS before.

    I could see that happening.
    When these former, white-collars and whatnot are recalled back to their old positions, they'll most likely drop it in a heartbeat.
    Then of course, when it comes time to renew the med-cards, they'll most likely let those lapse as well.
