per_soloWell, I can switch to the PPO plan, for dentists, at work. This will give us a much wider range of dentists to go to (Pretty much any that we can find), as opposed to the 4 or 5 dentists that is with our current plan.
The cost? Oh, pretty much just the amount that was my Merit Increase (What I call my COL increase), PER PAY. It was fine, when it was my Increase, per month...
Work is, once again, pushing Flex Cash...they always seem to state that Flex is a GREAT idea, but they never seem to want to stress that if you don't use the money that's in there, then you lose it...TOTALLY gone. They do try to point out that you can use money in there to buy Asprin, various other OTC drugs, Contact Lens Fluid...but, who the fuck wants to buy all that at once? One time for the year, then you're done. Because, why oh why would you buy it when you could have a big medical expense? Why would you even chance not having that money there for a big expense?
In short, I'm irritated...REALLY irritated. And I almost thought to put this behind my work cut (you know, the one where I don't have to worry about friends spreading word of my discontent back to my boss), but I figure I'll use honors system here.
This doesn't need to get back to my boss. If you spread this to him, just do me a favor and unfriend me first. This, combined with my protected post of a week ago (or so), is just enough to make me want to sleep..for a week.
Thank God that vacation arrives in just over a day.
