  • "Another way of looking at it is that I certainly wouldn't remarry the person for (or is it "with") whom I am celebrating 36 years of divorce." Hmmm...I would say "from". x;-)
  • Wow...Steve McQueen's older than I thought. x;-)
  • We offer free flu shots that cost the company $24pp for 20-50 people, $22pp for 51-100 and $20pp for 101-150 people. More than three hundred employees receive notices of the "FREE!" flu shots, and each year we have an average of 25 show up. 8-|

  • They reported on the news just yesterday that most Americans *aren't* doing anything different. In fact, as a whole we are buying more gas now than we were a year ago.
  • From an article on datelinehollywood.com dated 4/11/05: "Jane Fonda, nicknamed Hanoi Jane by an outraged nation for posing on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun that fired at American aircraft, says that the photo-opportunity was a 'betrayal' of …

  • Here's an article that goes more into his advantage to being better than the average athlete: [url]http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5289509/[/url]
  • "Be supportive" is the best advice to give. This is obviously something she has to do, and maybe she'll back out at the last minute, too. You don't know, and you need to be there for her either way. Then, if she does go, at least she will have th…
  • Someone's not enjoying this cartoon as much as the rest of us: [url]http://money.cnn.com/2004/07/26/commentary/wastler/wastler/[/url]
  • Actually, I've read on different message boards that the switching has already begun. Adria has already switched and someone speculated that Drew already has, as well, and that's why he appears a little dim because maybe the brothers are not keepin…
  • Well, I was kind of surprised to see that they couldn't hear with the TV in the HOH room. I don't really see much point beyond keeping the HOH busy for a while in spying. I would think that it would not cause a huge stir among the rest of the HG's…
  • Same with me...last year I swore I was not going to get into it...sat down one night a little bit into the season and thought I would just watch a minute or two. I was immediately hooked all over again. I'm interested to see what the twist will be…

  • On the other side of the coin, there is a mid-70's woman in my building who always goes by "Miss". I don't think it would be my preference at that age, but to each his own. I agree that they need to expand their horizons, for the young and old ali…
  • Definitely call the insurance company to see if you're still on the plan. I don't term unless there is proof of the divorce and it sounds like that is what happened. Our insurance companies do send out term notices to to employees every time I sub…
  • If they didn't qualify for the insurance, they don't qualify for the COBRA. We've had a couple of incidents like this, and our insurance company followed our lead....if we didn't term the employee, then they didn't term them from the policy for put…
  • The other thing to consider is what your insurance contract will allow. The only conditions under which I am allowed to add someone to our plan outside of the normal waiting period is for a life event or if the person leaves our employ and comes ba…
  • When our insurance broker gets quotes from different companies, the potential companies know that they cannot get claims experience, either from me or our current carrier (yeah, that HIPPA thing again). All they have to go by are the demographic in…
  • Non-union: 15 days your first year, with one additional day per year up to 20. Union: 15 days your first year, with on additional day every three years up to 20. Everyone gets 10 sick days per year.
  • I did send out a notice, and had them sign, that stated that if they do want me to assist them in getting a claim settled (which so many of them do) then they will have to fill out an authorization form detailing who is to see the PHI, specifically …
    in HIPAA help? Comment by jrzgrl April 2004
  • Well, that helps *me* understand why they not only keep calling, but stopping by constantly, even though I had asked to be taken off of their list, as well. I just saw an ad last night online to work at one of their local offices as a benefits admi…

  • "Their tendency is to focus on the amount of a single payroll deduction and not a total year's payment." Then maybe they shouldn't have so much from which to choose. The rationale discussed in the prior post is the one I used to discourage our sig…

  • I agree with Don - as soon as the rep said that there is no administration on my part, I knew it had to be a pipe-dream. There's no such thing as no administration when it comes to offering any benefit. I also have not appreciated the constant col…

  • "...failure to make that payment would result in their coverage being terminated back to XX date." That is a great idea. My statements always tell them by how much they are overdue and what months they owe...but recently an ex-ee was stunned that …
  • Being a non-profit, there is not a whole lot we can do. We send out certificates of recognition of service on their anniversary date. We also have an annual recognition ceremony that gives awards for certain year milestones: 3 years - company mug…
  • One thing I do to keep my broker honest is to take note of trends that are reported in the media and to see if he informs me of and reacts to them. For example, I had read that Aetna was becoming more competitive with their rates this year, and my …

  • In any FMLA notice I send out, I make sure they know what their balance is. When the leave from last August was approved, I would have included in the notice their balance at the conclusion of the approved leave. When they requested additional tim…
