Why dont you have health insurance?

Why are you so gay that you had a little pain and ran to the Hospital? I weigh 330, and I have never had a pretend Heart Attack....

That's about the one smart thing Dougie has ever done, outside of racing. Not having health insurance.

Yeah, our health care system works so well. I love the scare tactics employed on people. If you don't have insurance, you are going to die! Tomorrow!

Nothing at all, first job I have ever had that does it this way... Dental and Health. Even when I worked at AMC it was like $47 bi weekly.... That was supposed to be like the best plan in this area.....

Not really... I work overnights, 3 12 hour shifts a week. Most of the time it ends up being 15 hours straight... Cant sleep at all, and it happens to be weekends, Thur-Sat. The pay is not great, but the insurance makes up for it.

My employer picks up 100% too, but our copays are higher because it's an HMO and overall a greater pain in the butt then I had with regular BCBS in NY. For example, I had to pay $15 to see my regular doctor for a referral to have the doppler scan at a surgical center, the center is considered a specialist visit so it was another $35, and then finally they referred me to the emergency room which was a $150 co-pay. Free dental too.

Right now I work for a company called ALG, Alternative Living Group. I am the overnight supervisor, I have 3 other people under me, pretty basic. I work in a Residential setting, there are 4 residents in my house. All male and all pretty high functioning....Younger also, 3 of them are younger then me, and one of them is 30.

that is really awesome RHT. tons of respect for your profession. My best friend since I was 5 yo had a mentally challenged brother (David), & I pretty much grew up with them... so I would volunteer with the Special Olympics and it was so great being around those kids.

Unfortunately, David developed stage 4 brain cancer in the fall of 2006, and he lost his couragous fight on April 8th of this year. Its been by far the most difficult death of a friend or family member that I've had to deal with, and I cant imagine being in my best friends shoe's, or her parents and other brother. People with special needs I believe make bonds so much stronger, they are a joy on this earth. I really want to get involved with volunteering again.. need to get off my butt and just do it.

Thats really neat, RHT.. you get to have an emotionally satisfying job (though I'm sure its difficult), and get great health benefits. you should be proud.

I worked for the local ARC for 2 years out of high school... I have used the R word around here a few times and I feel horrible about it, I am a hypocrite because I have yelled at people for using it and came back and done it myself....
