The system is set up such that if you lose your job you lose your health insurance, for you and your children.

And if you miss a paycheck you’re toast. Probable eviction notice in the future. Paycheck to paycheck living is real, even more so in the post 2020 world.

paycheck to paycheck isn’t “the system”, or there’s no way 40% of people would be able to avoid it

American here: worked jobs from digging ditches to writing software… This only happens if you let it.

If it’s offered and it’s free, check the times with the boss, if a reasonable reschedule (like "I’d really like you with me in a meeting at 10, can you take the 11 appt? Sure.) , Do it. Else, keep the appt and have your employment docs on hand for reference as needed.
