Time to renew our insurance at work. There are three of us on a group plan. Come to find out, an individual policy for me would cost $300 less (over 50%) per month than they're paying for me on the group plan. One of the attorneys on it could save $900 per month if he goes to an individual plan. The other attorney on it has a wife that has diabetes, and that's what's driving up the cost of our group plan. Of course, he'll be slightly screwed monetarily if we all were to go to individual plans. He's fighting tooth and nail for us to stay on a group plan for one more year, since his wife's pre-existing condition won't matter after the first of the year due to new legislation. In that amount of time, I could personally save approximately $1500 during that time.
They're in there right now trying to hash things out to decide if we want to go to the individual plans. On top of the savings on just my portion, my new plan would include dental and vision. I could very easily decide to go to this individual policy regardless of what they decide. Doing so, however, would mean that they all would since there would no longer be three people on the group plan. Without three people, we can't have a group plan. Are they asking me my opinion on this? No, of course not. It's still an option, though. Do I go with the individual plan regardless, even if it means possibly pissing off one of my bosses?
I guess this is in the rant thread because listening to them talk about it right now is because I'm frustrated. I'm sorry you're losing the $2500 you've already paid to your HSA, but losing $2500 probably doesn't affect you nearly as much as making $1500 more affects me. ASK ME WHAT I THINK! [Reply]

You have to do what's best for you. And I don't know your financial situation, but $100+ a month is a lot of money for many. But realistically, how much do you like your job? You're likely going to paint a target on your back by the one attorney. [Reply]

I would talk to them about it. They may further subsidize your plan. [Reply]

This.
Lay the numbers out in front of them. Inform them of the savings that you're looking at....but you're willing to see what they can do to help you and still keep you on the group plan. [Reply]

The same agent is working with all of us on individual plans. They know how much they pay for mine, and that they would be saving on what they pay on mine. I pay anything over $400 per month. They would each save half on what they pay for their portion of my insurance, plus I would no longer have to pay anything. [Reply]
Argggh...this whole car buying bullshit is driving me fucking nuts. I emailed a guy four fucking days ago about a car that's exactly what I fucking want, and still no reply and his fucking ad is still up. Do you want to sell the goddamned thing or not?
Then I call another guy about another vehicle today that I'd like to look at, and he tells me to call back tomorrow after noon because he has someone coming to look at it in the morning. What the hell ever happened to first come, first served? Plus if the other idiot doesn't show up or buy it he could potentially miss a sale because he put me off. Fucking stupidity across the goddamn board.
I'm sitting here with fistful of fucking cash and no one wants it. [Reply]
So I'm driving the truck down the highway with the sprayer on the back. Sprayer has 10' wide wheel stance so it's a wide load. Anyway, the highway is a 2 lane with a short shoulder. If I put one side on the yellow the other side will be right on the white, so I'm using the whole lane. So 3/4 of a mile out of town a cop has a pickup pulled over. They are mostly in the ditch, no big deal. Well there is oncoming traffic, so I slow down, hit the hole in traffic and swing wide to give the cop plenty of room.
So right after I get around the cop, this fucking assbag in a bitch ass minivan freaks out and passes the car behind me and me in my big ass truck. There is a pickup oncoming that has to slow down for this douche-mobile. Well, he gets around me and immediately has to slow down for town. So by the time the lane split, the douche-mobile was about 100 feet in front of me. I figure he was 100 feet behind me when it freaked out, so the douche-mobile gained himself 200 feet by pulling a fucking stunt and making the oncoming car slow down.
Really? 200 motherfucking feet? 200? Jesus fucking Christ.
I'm sure the douche-mobile was cussing me because I didn't feel like waxing a cop.
The hell of it is that it was a car from the next town over. Had to know where the cop was in relation to town, and he had to know what I was doing. You'd think most people in the area would exercise some common sense. The level of stupid in this world is mind boggling sometimes. [Reply]
The general public. I've never seen so many useless, god damned heathens in my life. When you shop for Tide, do you REALLY have to pick up the fucking box/bottle to make the call? Are you going to take a fucking test-sip of the shit or something? When choosing a box of Kleenex, is it REALLY necessary to dig through every box until you find a color pattern that suits your dumb ass? IT'S TISSUE, MOTHERFUCKER! You're not choosing a new goddamned doctor or HMO!
Sonofabitch...I have a small part time retail gig for extra money, I can not BELIEVE how many stupid motherfuckers are roaming this earth. You know what I do when I shop? I make a list, and I go buy the shit I need. And I don't stand in the aisle with my thumb up my ass making international peace talks over Charmin vs Quilted Northern. Oh, and I don't CALL the fucking store to do my shopping either. I get my ass in the fucking car and GO THERE. I'm selling $1600.00 worth of furniture to customer who had the decency to come down and work face to face with me, and YOU want to pull me away from them so you can find out over the phone if the latest foam ass-pads have come in yet? Get the fuck off my phone. Ugh. Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]
