I live in Aurora, il and I am trying to get a job anywhere in operating a forklift, but I feel that nobody is hiring me because I am not certified and have no experience. So is there anyhere I can be trained for a decent price?

Freddy,
Forklift training is usually an OTJ certification.
Fake it. You have a computer and a printer. Write up your own certification and print your certificate on fancy paper. That will at least get your foot in the door.

Join the Navy. Tell the squid recruiter you want to be in the supply and warehousing of all things Naval. You might even go to sea on ships designed to provision fleets underway in all weather conditions anywhere on the planet. This will get you a better job after service ends. Former President Richard Nixon did the same duties during WWII. It is where he learned to talk salty.

see if there are CAT training programs in your area. Just call a CAT store and work from there asking about a closs. the dept of labour also offers many classes for free or low price
