Luis

I am working as a taxi driver in a taxi company and average 40 to 50 hours a week. Despite this I am facing a lot of problems financially. I would like to work more but sometimes I don't have people to drive around so I don't get paid. I was thinking of going to school but I am working the night shift and sleeping during the day. I want to go back to school to learn English and computer skills. I live at home with my wife, who is six months pregnant, and an eleven year old son. I have two children from a previous marriage and they live with their mother. I think I could get a better job if I could speak English and had computer skills.
