Not even sure how to start this one. It is a long story and I want to try and remain semi vague. So I just started a new job 3 months ago that is no different than my last two jobs. A constant barrage of promises that never come to fruition just to try and keep me churning out profits. Before I even took the job I fully expected this so my hopes weren't up at all. No excitement to even start work here. I just needed a job and paycheck. I was already done two jobs ago.
So I have been stressing for a few weeks. I am eligible for their health insurance. The problem is I can't fucking afford their insurance. It is $600 per month, my wages suck and it eats up 95% of my pay each month just paying bills. Taking their healthcare would mean ending up homeless. We already don't have any luxuries at home, eat cheap and I skip 1 to 2 meals per day just to keep costs down and make sure my wife has 3 meals per day.
So I made up my mind today. I am throwing it all down and walking away. The only thing we have going for us is a decent amount in savings that I haven't dipped into. It's time. I told my wife today, I am giving this shit job another month, MAX. Just to get enough paychecks in to move with. We are letting the bills go, downsizing our belongings and using some of the savings to buy an RV of some sort like so many millions of others in 'Murica and we are leaving this part of the US and going somewhere else more affordable to exist. We'll just live in our RV and save money that way until either something changes in the US or we leave the country.
Fuck this system, I am done with it..
