No pension but he offers health care benefits but I don’t use it
I’ve worked at hospitals and if I constantly need to see a doctor to live life then I guess my times up
Not going to be taking medication everyday or having to see a doctor every other week that’s not living to me
But until the time you completely self destruct you will need a place to sleep and something to eat and so how will you achieve those two feats when you're no longer able to go out there everyday matching the daily production of the average UPS driver for half the wages and zero benefits?
Rest assured there will come a day when you will cross your threshold of pain and therefore will gladly accept medical care but don't just assume that you'll be able to walk out the door and stiff the hospital with the bill.
BTW I was a ground contractor and drove a route everyday for 23 years including spending nearly 6 of those years running 6 days a week year round. The end result? Spinal stenosis and a double hip joint replacement . The cost of replacement surgery? In excess of 100K . Fortunately for all those years I purchased and maintained a major medical health insurance policy.
Yep, that job is an absolute joint killer. First comes the inflammation followed by the cartilage destruction followed by prescription pain killers that offer a limited amount of relief for a limited amount of time......and in the end you'll join the 400,000 Americans who undergo joint replacement surgery every year.
