Well it’s free here but it takes about two hours and that’s with a car.

Every cloud has a silver lining.

there's free ones here too but it's a pain to find them

I got tested twice at free ones when I was in the program. Also if you tested positive the state will pay to quarantine you at a hotel for 2 weeks. But it took like a week to get the results. My brother got his the next day.

Can you make your psychopath roommate drive you? I mean, if you have it it's most likely his fault, right?

You got a link to that because I seriously doubt we have access to that up here? You sure that’s not local **** down in “real” Florida?

I live in NC and it might have been cause of the program. I don't have a link but I knew at least 12 people who went to the motel.

I read about them doing that for / to people in the system.

Congratulations on getting out of Florida.

I haven't lived in Florida since 2011. If my sister and her family move back down there then maybe I'll go back... But south Florida is a terrible place to raise kids so I think they're more aiming for Orlando if they go down there. It's all based on the location of the restaurant they're trying to get so they don't necessarily get to choose though.

I think we were only able to do this because I was a confirmed close contact of a positive case, but my test was actually effortless. Totally free, I drove up to a CVS drive thru and did the test on myself in the car then I deposited the stuff into a dropbox and drove away. Took 10 minutes and I was done.

I understand it's a difficult situation but the reality is if you just stay out of work for 3 days and go back that's basically pointless. It takes like 2 weeks to work it's way out of your system so that's why it's important to get tested and know if you have it or not. See if your parents can help if possible. Good luck.
