    You sure like enticing people to move to NV. Almost an obsession with you.
    Don't you realize that the more people that go to live there, the worse it will become?

    What do you mean worse? It's a great state to live in. There's no worse about Nevada.
    When someone shows interest in moving, why don't other drivers chime in and answer their questions and give some suggestions?

    Would you like the entire population of CA to move to NV? Would that make NV a better place to live?

    You like Nevada because of what it is right now. But, it was even better 30 years ago.
    That was when I lived there. I spent time in both Las Vegas and Reno, and they were both better back then with less people.
    Sometimes progress goes backwards.

    The reply isn't related, but another question for you.

    How early should I begin job searching/application sending? I've found a few local/regional/flexible OTR jobs that have terminals near me. Found a better listing website and there are way more than I originally thought hiring. Whether or not they hire out of school, who knows yet.

    My graduation, should all things go well, is February 26th or earlier. 2 months out right now. Is it wise to go ahead and submit applications, or better to call/email places now and submit my application once I'm closer to the licensing date?

    Wait until you get the endorsements.
    Companies won't give you a commitment if they require endorsements and you don't have them.
