You took a year to get things handled instead of expanding your search radius and being willing to drive to a nearby city.
Yes, because that would have taken 3-4 hours and my job wouldn’t let me off for that long. I get that you have a good job that lets you do that. I did not.
You already had to take off for the appointment and that can be an easy couple of hours as it is.
Except it never has been once. It’s been at most an hour and a half total.
Do you think maybe you don’t know the situation I was in?
Do you think maybe lecturing someone about how they didn’t do what you think they should have done when you don’t know the situation they were in is courteous or considerate?
Dude. Check yourself. I’ve been further down and out than most people realize. Every job I’ve ever had you could take a day off for things like medical appointments. You say you have decent insurance which means a somewhat decent job, that means you should be able to put in for time off, especially if its a month or two out instead of a year out. You find someone to drive you if needed, cover a shift,watch the kids, walk the dog, whatever.
As I already said. I work for myself. Any time not spent working is lost money. I don’t have pto or fmla to lean on. My wife is now on w2 but was IC for decades. She came with me and took time off work but because she is now a manager of her team, this put her behind for the day. We still made it work.
I’m just continually amazed at how few people are willing to put tbe work in to take care of things. If it doesn’t line up or seem easy from the get, they just give up and let their schedule be dictated by others.
For my job, I regularly get people who traveled to my city for health care. People travel for medical all of the time. Taking a day off work to travel to another city is worth it long term if it means you get the care you need.
Every job I’ve ever had you could take a day off for things like medical appointments.
Every job you’ve had has been better than the job I had. You do know they don’t have any legal obligation to do that, right? It’s almost if you didn’t have the job I had.
You say you have decent insurance which means a somewhat decent job
No, it means my wife has a decent job.

You don’t fucking know me or my life. You have no idea how much work I’ve put into my health. I’m going to the Mayo Clinic in March due to illness. Do you know how hard it is to get into the Mayo Clinic? Do you know how much work and effort that takes?
No, you fucking don’t. Because you’ve had a cushy job and a cushy life.
I’ve been broke and struggling my entire life. My parents fucked me over, my father gave all of our money (what little we had) to the church of scientology. I’ve worked retail, restaurants, run my own pc repair service, helped a few people build websites, delivered furniture, did outside sales and more than I want to go into here. My last “real” job was as a utility locate tech making $12.50/hr. Now I work for myself (again), yesterday I made $250+, today I’m at $90 8 hours in. Does that sound cushy to you?
You have to stand up for yourself because no one else will. When I worked foodlion I literally wrote on the time off calendar that I wouldn’t be in the state and if they scheduled me that’s on them. And yes, they legally have to allow you to take off for health stuff. There is also fmla which they can’t deny.
Seriously dude. Stop being a fucking victim and whining about how bad you have it. We all have our issues and personally I’ve been able to survive being out of work for over a year without being evicted or losing weight. I’ve had 2 sets of seizures that fucked my back up, the last one I also busted a shoulder. I’ve been hit by a car biking to work and more and I’m still around and not bitching about how much my life sucks (except venting to my wife when I need to). As I said up chain, you make shit happen when it needs to happen. Or you can sit back and bitch and whine like a toddler.
You might consider spending less time on here and more time figuring shit out. It’s clear by how active you are on here that you are tantamount to a shut in. You can’t actually be working a job that let’s you spend all your time on here but doesn’t allow you to take time off for medical stuff.
I’m done here and I’m going to block your whiny victim ass because I have to actually work and keep building my business so I can maybe, sometime in the future, not be worried about my day to day finances. Oh and I’m dealing with a headache just shy of a migraine that is probably related to the dilantin I was recently prescribed. So basically, you can fuck off with your (my life sucks worse than yours) bullshit.
Lecturing me, then insulting me, not one single question about my situation. Just assumptions about my life and what I was able to do and not what I knew I would get fired for.
I mean for fuck’s sake.
Also, I just love that you see our broken healthcare system and think people who are unable to get the care they need are just whiny and need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
Yes, because that would have taken 3-4 hours and my job wouldn’t let me off for that long. I get that you have a good job that lets you do that. I did not.
