Well, that is the idea to get to a point of profit. But as to the deductibility of the mileage, I usually drive directly from work, so it is not an issue. Even if I did not, who's to say whether I did or did not? But the mileage is deductable if you use the vehicle for business purposes, not just if you leave from job #1 or not. It really has nothing to do with where you leave from. And even if it did, I don't think the IRS can dispute or even determine where you left from. Kind of an "honor system" thing. I am using a personal car for business purposes.
