Going Rogue

I quit my main job yesterday. In just under 2 weeks I will no longer be employed as a mechanic. Ill be delivering pizzas full time now rather then doing it to supplement the lack of mechanics work. Now Ill be turning wrenches to supplement so if you need any work done let me know.

The primary reason I quit was lack of income. I was able to make up for it driving Friday and Saturday night but yesterday I was told that Id have to be available those nights so I quit. Jaime and I had already talked about the possibility of me quiting and I had made sure I could work full time at The Village.

The only thing Im worried about is insurance. We might be able to get insurance through Jaimes work and shes also looking into MI Child for Jack. Honestly weve been pretty frustrated with my insurance so Im not entirely sad to see it go. Jack went in for his 1 year check up and vaccinations a couple months ago. We got the statement from the insurance company and the total cost was $468 of which they covered just over $55. I was furious. We pay over $3,200 a year for coverage on Jack and I and thats what we get? Fuck that. This was all routine stuff. Nothing fancy or unnecessary. Hopefully congress will get health insurance all straightened out, but thats another post.

In the end Im happy with the decision and am excited to be delivering again. If you know anyone looking to get rid of a TDI VW Golf or Rabbit let me know.
