Ok, so what's your situation with work? Is renting too high where you're at? With that many natural disasters, if you don't have stable work-- just fucking leave. Look for an area with slightly lower rent, see what temp work/day labor/ job outlook there is and start applying for them. This may not seem like possible advice, and I get it if it seems that way.

Dad and I are saving up to get me to Truck School and by the end of the year will likely be there assuming our country isn't at war or burned up by F-I-R-E-S like what's starting to take place in Central Oregon now.

Right now there is a MAJOR shortage of truckers. Is that a good time to apply for a job involving trucks or take academy classes? We're looking like dump truck jobs or smaller truck jobs not long haul.

I would look at that, possibly welding too. Just be careful with trucker jobs. You have to make sure that you work for a decent company that won't ruin you.

What would you recommend on the west coast? Or what would you avoid?

The West Coast, tbh.

We're at that situation though we have all our stuff paid off......so I guess that's a plus?
