My ride-share car: Harish's only way to earn a living
Harish drives for a living in Aurangabad, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 7 weeks.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 7 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my family of five. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $300 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $15
• gearbox replacement (parts): $210
• Labor charges: $75
With deep gratitude,
Harish

you're not alone, Harish. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together.
Stay strong, Harish. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
hope you make a strong comeback. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too!
