I need to get a license after DUI in CA. HELP!

I was found guilty of DUI 9 1/2 years ago and apparently didn't learn
my lesson, I recieved a second DUI about a year ago which was counted
as #2. I now have learned and have stopped drinking all together but am
faced with a major problem. I need to start driving or I'll lose my job
in outside sales. My employer knows about my situation and has been
very supportive, as long as I am able to continue to post numbers
they've left me alone. I hired someone to drive me around part-time but
can't afford to do it any longer, my employers are losing patience and
have told me to drive without a license. I'm a father of two and my
wife works full-time, we need two incomes just to survive. Apparently,
after mutiple offenses you can't get a restricted license until you've
completed the 2nd offenders program which is 18 months and I've only
scratched the surface.
Before every one starts hammering on me about being an idiot for
placing myself in this situation, I already know it, so don't waste
your time or mine.
I never went out drinking, my wife worked nights and I worked days, I
took care of my two kids at night for 4 years, helping with homework,
cooking dinner and the bed time routine. When I found out that my wife
was having an affair I got drunk and made a bad decision.
What I need is some constructive advise!

The troll-o-meter is sensing an aroma.

On the off chance this is for real the problem and solutions would seem
to be obvious. The problem is you need transportation but can't drive.
Your choices are to either get another job, work out some arrangement
for having another sales jock give you a ride, take public
transportation, or hitchhike.

Oh boo hoo. The deadly criminal is whining cause he got a license
suspension instead of the 20 years in the can he should have gotten.
Getoutahere. This is not a criminal coddler newsgroup.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This man is not a criminal. He is a person who HONESTLY made mistakes
in his life, and admits to them. A 20 year sentence for a mistake that
no one was hurt in! I am glad that most people do NOT see things your
way, laura bush, because YOU ARE INSANE!

I am sure that you are not perfect yourself, laura bush, so why are you
insisting that others have to be? Making up for your own shortcomings,
by directing attention at other people's?

This guy is just going to have to give up on his outside sales job, and
ask the employer to look for a NEW job for him, or just bite the
bullet, keep on working, let them fire him, and find ANOTHER job, while
he collects unemployment.

You need to find a job that doesn't entail as much driving as a sales
job does, one where you can either walk or take public transportation
to, or one where you can work out of your home.

The 2nd question is why do you need two incomes to survive? Do you
have a bunch of ameneties that you can get rid of, perhaps a couple of
cell phone bills, cable/satellite TV, new car purchase, too big of a
house payment, etc? It's time to make sacrafices until you can get
back to your original income level.

boohoo. made a bad decision twice, eh? better that you are off the

already scum of the earth IMHO

Hell, Kennedy didn't even get that! Must be nice to be a senator!

As long as you continue to demonstrate hypocritical behavior regarding
Ted Kennedy, it most certainly is a "crimina coddler newsgroup."

This is no joke. Bush has gotten away with stealing two elections and
blowing up WTC and lying america into war. So don't put a third term
attempt past him. I mean who's gonna stop him. The democrats and the
media are totally bought off.

Hell, in Massachusetts they'll vote you into the US senate.

Who would want the murdering piece of ****? Oh yeah, that's right, the
