Yeah, I was thinking of gas money. One of my daughter’s first jobs was visiting the elderly and mentally I’ll shut ins. But the gas to drive from place to place was so high it was hardly covered by her wage. So she had to look for a different job that paid better. Because we live in a rural area people are very spread out. One older man she especially hated to leave was stuck on his farm. There was a service that delivered meals to him but what he desperately wanted was someone to talk to, he loved my daughters visits. I just think there aught to be more money for things like that than $99 digital card.
