Maybe you could put it in storage in case someone needs it later.
Oh wait, hang on, I need a bit back - just found out that my health insurance won't kick in for 90 days, so I'll need to pay for COBRA until then, which will be about 25% of my net pay for those three months.
The new employer might pay that if you ask.
Already asked, and no they won't.
Ow. I just did my push up workout. I *really* didn't want to, but I did it anyway. I hurt. Owie.
Yay, smonster (I mean, not about the COBRA, but about taking the job)
Good on you, Sean, for doing it anyway!
I've got the offer. Need to sign and fax back.
...any time now.
Argh, smonster! Your current insurance should be good up till end of the month; might wanna compare COBRA to an individual plan like Blue Cross of something for a month or so. I've COBRA'd and it's fucking insane.
(Get your current doc to write out 90 scrips of any meds you take, and get em this month if you can; explain the sitch. Most docs are pretty understanding.)
I am excited for you, and this just pushed my tentative plans to try to have our belated honeymoon in NOLA. Nora, Tom and smonster!! Drunken dinners!
Actually, my insurance goes to the end of the next calendar month, I think, so I'd only need COBRA for a short period. I should check with my HR person here. Thanks for the tip on prescriptions, that's a good idea.
And this job starts here, Erin, and I'm not sure when (or if) something will open up in NOLA. But you should go ahead and do your honeymoon down there!
Hey, Vortex - do you have time to give this offer a quick read?
