I work hard for my money, but my money is broken.
48hr/week + 2hr/day of not paid traveling because road are shit and always in dense trafic.
Half of my pay check get robbed for my 'safety' and to 'build the roads'.
Today leaving the job site I see that I should stop at the gaz station to fill the tank. So tanking my car half full and I hear from the other pump intercom;
"Sorry, but we can only take cash"
So I immidiatly stoped to tank, just to see if I have cash on me or in my car.
Oh shit, I only have 2/3 of the amount in my wallet, so I took all coins that I could found in the car and bring it to the cashier, counting change like a hobo while the queue fillup behind me. To end up not having enough. 😤
What a mess!! What a shame of using fiat!
I could have paid in a second using #Bitcoin and #lightning.
The money I work for is not even valid to tank my car at this precise time. When I need it!
The money is broken and we can see it.
We can not trust the fiat system anymore for our survival.
Gaz station owners should know that and accept bitcoin.
