In my area, that would be a pretty good deal. Probably not so much in higher cost of living areas.

'for life'? so retirement is off the table?

it almost sounds like the gag is you agree to this and then they kill you on the spot.

It would be far more efficient to work you for decades then send you to the glue factory at the end of what they deem your useful working life.

I'm Going to pass on that. I'm still young, healthy and do not forsee myself getting into a serious accident or ill I'm the near/mid future

So the free healthcare will be mostly worthless.

Government job doesn't give free healthcare. At least not mine.

Some definitely do. In fact there are some places that, if you were vested at the time of your retirement, will continue to pay for your healthcare until you reach the age to be placed on Medicare.

In 1980 you take it.

But 40k a year isnt a livable wage in 2023 on your own.

No, that is a significant pay cut for me, and frankly not a living wage with supporting a child in the city I live

plus being locked in at that level without any raises? Not a chance

Are you talking for yourself or for us.

Only you can speak for yourself as I don't know your current situation.

As for me, if you asked me is such a job for me 5 years ago, I'd say yes. Assuming the job isn't something crazy.

My current situation now? Fuck no.

I think a more interesting question is no job and free healthcare for life for $40k/year.

The average salary in many states is like 50-70k.

Don't trust averages. We have a barbell economy. Maybe give out the median or mode.

An Uber driver has a skill, driving

There are many driving jobs out there that pay pretty good money
