    I've been crunching hypothetical numbers and even after tax from some place like ODFL(Mileage rate coming out to like $97k/year, $80k/net a year) I could still afford a $1200/mo in bike commutable Aurora and all my other expenses($6600/mo net, $3300 left after all battle damage). After all that still have money to save.

    Only thing stopping me now is my fear of winter and hate for snow sports. I've driven in snow before. It's when it comes down thick and you can't see any more where I draw the line. I was reading over ODFLs stipulations for their hiring bonus and "preventable accidents" are mentioned disturbingly casually in the fine print on the app site. Makes me wonder if it's "that easy" to foul up in that area driving doubles.

    Da jitters.
