My wife left me...now what?

I just recently split from my wife and I'm really down on my luck. Bills are piling up and I'm having a hard time finding a job that pays enough to keep the lights on. I don't have a college degree and all the jobs I qualify for pay barely minimum wage. I'm getting depressed and don't know what to do. I'm one more late payment away from being tossed on the street.

I came across an ad for an opening at Ryder Trucking that seems to offer decent pay and benefits. Any advice for a guy thinking about becoming a trucker? I'm 43.

I was in the same boat sort of. Went to CFI. It was a good starter company. They paid school, food, housing, license, transportation.

Get on your knees and pray for God to help you with your problem(s). Relax and listen he will tell you if you have faith in Christ and what he did at Calvary for all of us... He loves you and will help you... God bless!!! I will be praying for you also....

ya, go for it ,at Ryder. stop worrying about bills, Just do what you have to do, All you can do is take care of yourself, the rest will fall into place, and work it self out. cant worry about spilled milk , if it hasn't happened yet. Think positive, move forward.
