Buy a trailer and some power washing equipment. Good equipment! Equipment that that can handle the appropriate chemicals that allow you to spray on and spray off for a near show room shine.

Advertise as a mobile tractor trailer detail!

Good money!

It will be my next business endeavor!!!!

I know a guy who does just a few hauling companies. He doesn't take on any new clients.

Makes a million a year before overhead and only works when wants (as long as his clients are happy).

Get in good with a carrier that deals with food grade facilities and you will always have work!!!!! USDA won't load dirty trailer!

Yup

Especially with the bird desieases that are running rampant. Most facilities with live birds won't let vehicles travel from bird farm to bird farm without being washed and sanitized!

if your driving a straight truck there is no trailer. if you want to drive a trailer local, end dump, doing construction, you pull the same trailer every day. no dropping and hooking.

You are not getting any younger Dave, time to take some risks. Search you area for dump truck jobs, do the interview, be confidant and go for it. If you can pass a drug test and show up for work every day you are half way there. Dont indulge any more information than necessary about your current and past jobs.

The job market at present favors the employee, take advantage of it.

Dave, have you ever looked into getting a job where you would be posted at a desk doing security type work, like watching cameras and logging in visitors into the building or site? It may be a decent job for you.

Which MOS’s? And it’s too late to read the initial post and comprehend it. I’ll read it after I wake up in the morning.

He's not a terrible driver, but just average. He can't think of any good jobs that don't require one to stand on their feet the whole day, and he needs a job where he can sit due to a bad knee, which he doesn't want to get fixed. So he's asking if anybody knows of a good job that doesn't require a lot of standing.

Is that pretty accurate coonman?



That is amazing, I mean even if your translation is even remotely close you are amazing! How did you do that?
