this can't be about education though, but such thinkgs like \nfor a truck driver, he needs a good, clean driving history

It depends on where you go to school (no, I'm not talking about education, keep reading) and where you want to work.  Schools and employers have various standards on who gets to join them.  For example, if you have a criminal record, it would be more difficult to get a job building fighter jets, since security clearances would be required.\n\nI would recommend contacting some schools (admission offices and engineering departments), as well as some employers (Martin/Lockheed, NASA, Boeing, etc.) to find out what they are looking for, this will help you set your path early on.  Also, I would contact them again every couple of years, things do change sometimes.\n\nGood Luck!

No, just like with any other profession, just because someone has the degree needed to do the job doesnt mean they are qualified and competent at the job.

The usual decision is that age-appropriate work training or community skills training is more worthwhile than continued academic training.  In a way, that *is* college for people diagnosed with MR.

Well man needed to learn so that this world would be better. Like if people did not learn you would not have a computer or anything that you use your brain with. I wish that we did not have to go to school. But hey that is what learning is all about. To succeed in life.

1 DUI is too many. He should stop driving altogether for the next 2 years and that will let him think about what he has done.

I assume you mean semi-truck or freight truck drivers?\n\nNo particular person comes to mind at all.  I've seen a wide variety of people and met quite a few that have delivered freight to businesses I've been in.  I haven't met a bad one yet.\n\nYes, it's an honorable profession.  Truck drivers are responsible for moving the vast amount of products you & I use every day.  A lot of thing would grind to a hault if these men and women were not out there doing their jobs in professional and timely fashion.

Man is doing what comes natural, when he wants to know everything.  That is not odd.  I have yet to meet a studied, religious person that I respect and that is knowledgable, that claims they know it all.  I don't think that is possible.

Most places you don't need a special education. The ability to multi task and good personal skills are a big plus. I have been a dispatcher for 18mo now. I would recommened that you look on the internet to find out how your area is serviced. Mine is a consolidated agency meaning that we dispatch for all police, fire and medical for the entire county, basically we do everything for around 17 agencies. You can ask at you local police department but if you are in a large urban area chances area the dispatchers are at another location.

perhaps he has a learning disability.  A lot of people with a learning disability are extremely intelligent people.  I'd have him be tested.  It could do wonders.

He really needs to have a high school diploma but a ged is better then not having either. And he will make more money having a real high school diploma. Where are his parents? And why doesnt he want to go to high school. If he has some problems there maybe he needs to see a counciler.

If you feel that its necassary yes...but are you still going to be able to work and bring in your own income? These semi truck drivers carry insurance and yes some of them carry million dollar insurance but not all of them go after the company he is driving for dont go after him..he probably feels guilty about it every day of his life. I am very sorry for your pain.\n\nGood Luck to you

It's not just over 60, but everyone should be tested every so often. Five years, 8 years, 10 years, I don't care. I see too many people of all ages that pick up bad habits that they need something to refresh them on the proper way to drive.

you can contact some of the trucking companies and they will perhaps hire you but you must have a good work history and pretty much a clean criminal record. some will hire right out of schools ,they will train you then give you your own big truck but let me warn you you want be able to go home as often as you would like.you could have gotten the state in where you leave to pay for your schooling there are programs out there that would have paid for everything,its through the employment office that's how I got my cdl.contact the trucking companies you can pick up a booklet at a truck stop if u live near one. or you can contact driving jobs.com for trucking companies. good luck too yoo

it takes a special breed to be a truck driving man

It still takes a work ethic to learn the information needed. Just because the information to be learned is more accessible does not take away from the fact that the person has to learn it. Also the "newbiee" is probably expected to know more about search information through a computer system than you were.\n\nAlso you have to admit that it's not how hard it is to be able to learn something that is important but that you learn the information. Think of it like this, do you think people who are 60 years your senior think the same thing about you? Because you could hop in your car and drive to library cutting off ten minuets for the walk.\n\nEspecially in a BS degree people are expected to learn allot more than you were at the time because technology has grown and expanded. There is and always be relative relation to how much you have to accomplish.

Well, what about the military?  He wil receive free training in a specialized career field, get money for college, have good insurance and housing benefits, and know that he's doing a damn fine service for the country and is respected throughout the nation.  This is, of course, provided that he is an American.  I don't really know how things work in other countries.  I'm sure I'll get flamed like heck for this answer, but its just a suggestion, and worth examining just as an option to the daily grind of civilian life.
