Good luck to you.

 Oh wait - I know what kind - a very, very happy person! My work is with truck and bus companies (related primarily to DOT safety but I do have some hazardous materials work coming up in Texas in August). Right now, my plans are to take my handsome and long suffering husband out to dinner and a movie. Tomorrow and Saturday, I'm going to put in a couple of long rides on the bike. But Monday? Look out world - here I come! angela

You should tell your boss you want a raise or you will go back to your old job. Just kidding!!! Congratulations on your new adventure, and I hope you are very successful in your new -job.

Sounds like the right move at the right time. No more road trips through CA in Butters, though.

1st. YAY!!! I wish I had the guts to do this. I don't. HUGE admiration for people who can take a risk.
2nd. I do commercial insurance in the PNW. I have some / several clients that have fleets that have hazardous cargo. Can you PM me with what you do exactly? Perhaps we can scare up some business? Larry |

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss....  Kidding! Takes a tremendous amount of courage to do what you have done, Angela. I admire you for that! You will make it a success I am sure.

That takes great courage & due diligence.
When I went out on my own, a mentor said, "You're worth 3 times more to yourself." He was right, only far more than that in $$$ and reward. Congratulations! I don't know you but I am still impressed.

Congrats Angela.
Nothing beats being your own boss. Went out on my own 36 years ago and have never looked back. Wishing you a prosperous future.

Not a motorbike. (though she could have one of those too, but I think it's 4 wheels and a motor or two wheels and she's the motor).
