Mint mobile. $180 for a year. I heard that Google voice might not work for second factor authentication for banks, etc. We kept our iPhones and eSIMed Mint mobile and physical SIMed our foreign plan. When we got new phones we eSIMed both plans and can run both at the same time over the cell network. We turned on WIFI calling for Mint mobile as well.

Have you been fired before even starting your new job?

I signed for a new job two months ago and will start next month (3 mo notice period in Europe). They were very keen on getting me on-board ASAP before signing but since I signed the contract it has been silent from the new employee. I've emailed them with questions as I'll be re-locating to NL and it takes them 1-2 weeks to reply. Given all that's going on in the world, I'm worried they might fire me before I even start.
