      2019+7= 2026 next year it’ll be my 8th year which is 2027, 2019+8= 2027.

      I quit when the pandemic started which it started in 2019, I quit in December of 2019.

      I suppose my wording puzzles people sometimes.

          Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I just realized you are under the delusion that covid started in 2020 and not 2019. That’s why you keep saying I’m off by one, you’re trolling!!!

            Can you really be that fucking dense? October 2026 minus December 2019 = 6 years, 10 months.
