Thursday - evening

Another good night's sleep, 2 in a row!  Amazing.  I feel energetic today such as I haven't felt in a while. I doubt that's solely sleep related but I"m sure it has a little bitty bit to do with it. I've been exercising regularly for a while now and I figure that is playing a large role in this.

Today? I open up one of my email accounts to find a cancellation notice for my health insurance.  I about flipped my lid on that one, in fact, I became incensed pretty quick.  This late pay on my health insurance has been going on for a while now and I've said something but now? I HAVE NO HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE.  Not  because I didn't pay it, oh no. That money comes out of my paycheck - every paycheck without fail.  

No, it's because this company has an incompetent human resources department.  This is easily and without question the final straw.  I will not work for any company not having health insurance as a benefit. But in this case, it's far worse than that. They don't PAY the damn thing on time.  Like what the hell do they think? They can just pay it when they feel like it?  

So what if something happens until I get coverage again? Here's exactly what will happen: I will sue the shit out of this company and try to force them to pay whatever. My insurance is fire insurance. Major health incident happens, I'm covered after the first 8k.  I have to settle myself down, I already blew up to my manager about this.  

It's just completely and totally unbelievable.  I have NEVER had a company - even lousy ones - not pay the health care coverage bill.  What are they thinking?  I have more than half a mind to start putting in applications.  I could do fuel hauling, that is all local work tho usually they start newbs out on the night shift, I thing I completely despise.  

______________

Had to let some time pass on that.  I don't want to make brash decisions, such as tell them where to stick it.  I've been telling them about this for a while now and now I have nothing. I feel vulnerable.  I'm not  young and at the age where you need that coverage for the sake of being able to deal with anything serious, God forbid, that might come along. I remember decades ago not having health insurance because I couldn't afford it and didn't feel I needed it. Not a very smart thing to do, but finances were the main problem, I was pretty poor at the time.  

But, if I don't find out that I have health coverage immediately restored tomorrow, I am going to tell them to shove it.  I would rather not be working at all and just find another job than to keep dealing with this company and all the bs it shoves at people.  Health insurance is about 50% of the reason I am working for this company the schedule is the rest.  

I'm not really sure I can talk about anything else here.  The whole situation is just surreal, absurd, ridiculous, outrageous and several other adjectives I could think of.  

Enough. I"m going to bed and sleep on it.  I started looking for a job, it's just something I don't really want to have to do right now, start all over yet again somewhere else, gag.
