Longest throw, huh?

That's hard to imagine.

This but unironically

Reach out if you're interested in blue collar work. I'll give you my number and you can call even. I can advise from personal experience on truck driving, water/wastewater treatment careers, or railroad work.

Truck driving has the benefit of being able to cut expenses to near zero by going over the road if you have few obligations. Getting a cushion this way makes settling down and going local much easier, even though I make more local than I ever did over the road.

I don't haul freight anymore either, and I don't think that's a long-term good prospect. Blue collar jobs where you work with the truck but have onsite work with it are a bit more resilient against automation I believe. Think wastewater cleaning, railroad, lineman, heavy haul, etc.

How can that comply with federal law that customers are not liable for fraudulent purchases on credit cards?

They may cancel your credit card or refuse to open new ones for you, but they can't refuse to charge back transactions you dispute.

Yes, all projects do those things, generally.

Have they had issues with your other concerns?

Mostly surprising they thought it was leaking hard enough to lift off.

Trucking, even in lots of local roles where you are home every night.
