Hello from California

Hi

I am new on here. I am about to go to Trucking school in my town but it will be in January 2020. I last worked as a tax preparer 5 years ago before my back went out on me. Should be going through physically therapy in summer. Its getting better. than it was but still need the physical therapy bit. I was about to get back in the accounting field by doing work in another state since there is really nothing here. But tax laws changed and could no longer write off employee expenses now so I been looking at the trucking field. A guy I went to school with just started and hes happy. The part I like is no office drama and I am sure there are plenty out there who just like me that have a bachelors of business administration degree.

Anyway I hope by February 2020 I could be driving and then leaving California to either Arizona, Oklahoma or Texas and leaving CA behind.

thanks
scott

 

Hi
Texas I did not know. I just knew about Nevada and Florida. What I was going to do was work in Nevada for a time and take break but then read the new tax law and it would not be good. I am living off my disability from nursing but this sitting around is getting old quick.

 

Thank you. My lifting days are over and that's what threw my back out was lifting my dad. I will add Old Dominion to the list.

 

No problem there. I been a drinker since I was 13. I just stopped 2 months ago. Marijuana & stuff like it were not for me. If caught in Nursing they would tear your license up in front of your face. Have a neighbor who tried talking me into it but I declined. He fixes trucker engines.

 

That's number 3 on my list. Rest of my family has houses and grandkids here but I'm a free bird. Gas is almost $5 a gal and I have not seen this High Speed Rail they been talking about since I was a student at the University in 2010.

1. Truck school
2. Buy a car or truck
3. Pack up & leave CA
