guess who has insurance now

There are people in England and Sweden (and all the other countries where health care is a given) snickering at you, you realize?

It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to drop a hundred dollars a month just so I can only have to pay 500 dollars of my hospital trip if I get severely injured while any illegal immigrant can get his/her injuries treated without fear of footing the bill.
 

I remember when you started the job, you were looking forward to the health and dental benefits. Good on ya for hanging in there...I know data input isn't the most glamorous of all jobs.

Not many 20 year olds take on that responsibility. Shit, I'm 28 and I don't know one other person my age who does.

Good for you Will!
 
I watched part of the movie "Sicko", the documentary by Michael Moore. Of course, as usual, some parts I'm sure were a little embellished...but which ones? None of it seemed too much of a stretch of the imagination judging the track records of these insurance companies.

Any thoughts?
 
Our National Health Service may be a bloated, ill thought out behemoth but it's utterly amazing.

People whine and bitch, but having access to some of the best medical care and professionals in the world (for no fee) when I really need it is wonderful.

I'd probably have insurance premiums so high by now if I lived in the U.S, owing to my frequent injuries.

That is, if the insurance companies approve of your ailment.
 
good job will :)

i opted out of my company's dental insurance. the vision insurance sucks, it barely paid for the frames of my glasses which were $30. the lenses i had to pay for myself. oh yeah i guess it did pay for the eye exam...meh! i'm still probably paying more this year for the vision insurance than the amount it actually covered me this year :ill:

the health insurance sucks too. but it's better than nothing i guess. and where the hell can i find myself a simple data entry job?!!?? it's all i've ever wanted!! the background investigation industry eats the souls of everyone involved :(
