Yikes. I didn't consider 60 hours without the OT. That's brutal. He's lucky to have you.
Medicare—that's disappointing. I'm so naive I'm unaware many businesses still exist stateside who offer salary and lots of working hours like your husband had but no medical coverage. Wtf is that?? Should be illegal.
My trade does a number on our shoulders too so I have a vague idea what he's experiencing. Shoulders and knees. And back too I guess. And necks. Ankles and wrists too. Ima stop reminding myself of my ailments now.
Thanks so much for tuning into this one. I'm glad you liked it. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
A far as I know, workplaces with medical coverage are a US thing. At least it's not something I've come across in the UK or Australia. I guess that's socialism for you. You didn't need private health insurance in the UK at all unless you wanted luxury accommodation with your treatment. Australia doesn't cover as much with Medicare, so health insurance is more common here, especially with middle income earners. Still a large portion of the population that can't afford it, though, so Medicare has plenty of takers.
Lol! You and he could lament together over aches and pains. His would be hips and back, I reckon.
Thanks for clearing that up. I was so confused for a second knowing you're over there but since he's drawing Medicare I assumed he had US coverage. How American of me. How or why I wasn't gonna ask, figured you found a loophole or something.
Medicare is on other continents. I see.
