    The local furniture manufacturer around here has their own fleet and start at 90k home daily. Nobody wants to do the work because there is driver assist required. Just an FYI. Or like others have said food service deliveries.

    I've definitely looked into both foodservice and beverage hauling. Physical work, but from at least beverage hauling, they tend to work no more than a 8-10 hour day and are usually off 2-3 days of the week. Of course last time I tried applying to them, I got turned down for whatever reason. I guess they think the milk haulers here are all lazier than dirt and the physical exertion would earn them a coffin. I was more than willing to adapt, but the bozo manager gave me the old, "there's an over-the-road hay hauler I know that's looking for drivers" shpiel. Had to get out that office before I ended up in county orange.

    I hope you look like Kris in that second picture, but he's not looking so good today. He gave up performing a few months ago because of dementia.

    Welcome to the neighborhood. The only advice I can give you is if you visit San Francisco, wear old shoes.

    I believe Ashley Furniture has runs where you tailgate all the furniture.
