Hi Mackfan :D

Most companies will make you take a refresher course. Sorry to share the bad news, not sure what it costs but I believe around $500-$700 or so. Hang in there.

I know that some schools give lessons, paid by the hour, like you said, That might be a good thing to do rather than pay several hundred dollars for a refresher course, although I didn't even know there was such thing as a refresher course

I know when I was your age the best jobs that I could find were local delivery jobs driving straight trucks, or shunting, When you turn 21 your options will become better. Good luck
