The vasectomy ended up not happening because we switched insurance since I started setting it up. Now it's gonna cost twice as much. So it's getting put on hold until I probably have a stable job again. Kind of pissed at how awful my partner's insurance is compared to what we where getting through ACA. Like sure let's not only pay teacher's the worse wages on the planet for a job that REQUIRES a degree but also enjoy you $800/month insurance with a super high deductable that doesn't cover like anything.
Its bad, we had great insurance in our district and then one year they switched us to an HSA and it started costing me a shit load of money every year.
Then my wife got a state job and were on state insurance and its insane how good it is. Like, everyone should have this insurance.
Sorry to hear your vasectomy got derailed, that sucks. I'd also be pissed too. Remember to wrap it up!
If I can have any wish granted before I die, it's to have universal healthcare so the next generations won't have to suffer through this sort of bullshit. Healthcare shouldn't cost a quarter of your salary.
