Remember that this job is for people who provide their own car. If you can't scrape together $40, how can you own a car? You can't even put gas in it.

- noobermin 8y agoYou're getting there. That $40 dollars will go to gas, food, bills, basic things that you need for life. You don't have much left to pull out for random things you didn't account for.
- skookumchuck 8y agoAnd you'll have to quit when your headlight goes out and needs replacement, right?
- teh_klev 8y agoPeople in the real world eventually have to do this once they're caught out by the cops a couple of times due to a broken headlight. I'm genuinely not sure if you're completely unaware of the real world financial problems low paid folks have, or are just trolling now.
- nkrisc 8y agoMaybe. If you couldn't afford to fix it before, you definitely can't after a few tickets. But if you give up the car then you can't get to your job, so how are you going to pay off those tickets?
- teh_klev 8y agoI've been recently unemployed, I own a car, stretching to an extra $40 on top of other costs is actually tricky. I had no appreciation of this until just recently and now understand the hardships folks on unemployment benefits experience. I was being paid GBP 76.00 per week which has to cover heat & light, food, telephone, internet, gas for the car, car insurance, car tax, etc....it goes on. There is nothing left. I was also being paid "housing benefit" which doesn't pay anywhere near the actual cost of rent. You should try this some time before making such poorly informed and sweeping statements.
