in Australia we have a saying, "38 and out the gate"

I guess in America that would translate to "100 and fuck right off with this shit, I'm going home"

The company pay the health insurance, they can't just walk away, no matter what.

Ha! When I was driving a delivery truck for a living it was 110 outside every day, and even hotter in the truck. And loud as fuck. And just all around miserable. I didn't even get health insurance or PTO
