This morning I decided to out myself as HIV+ to my boss/coworker type because I've been a little evasive about my health issues with him. While this was no issue, he asked if I had kept my COBRA from my previous job. Well, of course I didn't. My new insurance is in effect, and I can't afford $330/month to have back-up insurance. The reason he asks, well it appears the company whose service we re-sell is attempting to headhunt him directly and the future of the company who currently employs the both of us is "questionable". Where does that put me? Who the hell knows.
Fortunately, if I do become unemployed, at least I can make use of the local clinic for healthcare, but damnit, when will a stable job materialize. While it's very possible I may be over-reacting and jumping the gun a bit, in fitting with my theory of not harboring shit inside, I thought best to let this spew.
On another front, my damn ID doctor in Lawrenceville is still not returning my calls.....bastard. At this rate, I would probably be receiving better healthcare if I were unemployed with no insurance.
***Update****
In my new mode of being upfront about things, I talked to Dan about this and evidently he has no plans to leave me out to dry and would give me ample notice and all the assistance possible should anything happen. Largely this was his venting about some frustrations with the current company. Proof that there is even office politics in a two person office.

I just feel
That we're going no place
