What do to before I turn 25?

Hi

I got my CDL in July 2015. The first company I drove for was Swift, which was a disaster, left there after 4 months with a messy DAC but MVR still good. I thought that because I had a bad DAC, I couldn't get another trucking job, so I moved to San Diego and started looking at else what I could do. 6 months later, June 2016, I got another trucking job, regional from SD to Vegas and Phoenix. It actually went really well, made good money and was home every other night - the only problem was that's it was mostly seasonal with February and March as the slow months.

So now I am temporarily out of work. I'm wondering if I should take a whole new job or just wait until my current one picks up again. As it stands now, I'm 23, 12 months experience, clean MVR, I also have all endorsements and TWIC card.

I already have another offer, for a beer delivery position, still using my Class A. It's back home in NorCal and I would move back home for it. It'd be a little bit less money than I've been making in San Diego, but I'd have a better life other than that (home every night, 3 day weekends)

I really want to get into oil tankers eventually, or at least start using my endorsements in some way, but have found that most companies that do that need you to be 25 and have 2 years experience. I found an oil tanker company (Pacific Tank Lines) that would hire someone my age, but they told me today that I don't have enough consistent experience yet for them to bring me on. They said after I have one year with the same company, I'll be good to go, but as it is now, my experience is too all over the place for them.

Option A would be to just hang on until my current job picks up, work it until at least June, and then see if I can get on with PTL then. And start using my X endorsement even sooner.
Option B would be to move back home, deliver beer for a year or two, and see what is out there when I turn 25 (in December 2018 )

I already have an idea of which option I should do but what would you pick if you were in my position?

 

Thanks for the advice, decided I want to stay with my current job until at least June...it works out well, financially and in every other way, so no need to job hop.

I'll definitely look into Coastal Transport.
