The only possible way it’s true is if they were so incredibly stupid that they just kept knocking out substations and then going to the place they wanted to rob, saw the power was still on, shrugged, and went to knock out another one. Like their entire plan was just to knock out substations one by one until it got the one place they were going after.

But to be fair, they brought their cellphones to every substation they attacked, so they are incredibly stupid.

Job Corps?

A skilled trades apprenticeship will require funding your own move, a certain amount of physical ability, and being present during the application process.

It might be possible to bootstrap yourself with a terrible, no interview required, Amazon warehouse job if you think you can hack it for a few months and can find a lower cost of living area.

You probably won’t be able to get paid relocation without sought after skills, but if you can put some savings together and believe in yourself it’s a great place to live

Highway 26 between Washtucna and Colfax has some of the darkest skies along a major road. There's a big area where it's safe to pull over a little east of Washtucna.

Edit: Whoops, I just saw your avoidance of heading east of the Cascades lol. Maybe once the weather is better!

Military with a contract guaranteeding a region is probably your only option. Totally possible in the Coast Guard but they're pretty particular about who they let enlist.

Move to Spokane. Seattle is $$$. Spokane ain’t cheap but more so than Seattle. Casino jobs here start at minimum wage but the tips are good and benefits after a few months.
