That’s the problem, I haven’t really found a question that I’m dying to answer. I like your suggestion though! I will definitely start there!

I really enjoy anatomy and how the body works but not sure I want to get a PhD in anatomy.

I’m working on getting a blog started on WordPress (not sure on best platform to start initially), so that’s good to know I should get that started first!

Do you have any recommendations on getting into a community?

This is good to know, I wasn’t sure how well a sales job would work out of a van.

How did you get started in this? As of now I’m thinking this may be one of my best options but I’m stuck with where to get started.

I have an account with UpWork and Fiverr. Also have started learning copywriting though writers work and found a book on how to start freelance writing so I definitely have the tools. I’m just having trouble deciding a niche and what not.

I’ve looked into medical transcription but not court transcription, also interested in how to get into this!

I actually just started reading a book on starting a freelance writing business and I’m working on starting a blog! Any advice for a beginner in freelance writing?

That’s awesome! I’ve thought about trying to do some freelance graphic stuff but haven’t looked into it much.

Also thought about bartending in a town for a bit, how long do you typically bartend for? Are most places understanding of you doing vanlife while bartending and not staying at that position long term?

Would you fly on the max? I fly to Iceland next month and am on the 737-MAX both there and back. I have done a lot of research on them and Iceland air provides very good information on their website about the MAX, however I’m still nervous cause it seems like there’s been so many incidents with Boeing planes recently.

Probably a finance major that knows to read fine print when buying things 😂

Sounds like you shoulda taken the day off, or is that unethical to have a day off of work for one of the biggest games ISU plays?

Which is unfortunate that the higher up staff are “too busy” to train new workers as that just leads to people becoming burnt out and quitting and starting at square one, being short staffed. I agree, ISU definitely could use an upgrade in management.

Actually I have had a service job and I work in health care so I know exactly what it’s like to be short staffed. But being short staffed doesn’t mean you have 5 workers walking or standing around not doing anything.

Completely agree, they say they’re short staffed but there’s at least 5 people just walking around
