obviously if you have to choose between food and coverage, you pick the food. but i was always astounded when people rejected short term disability when i was at my previous job. it didn't cost a dollar a week because the company paid most of the expense.. many of the employees used tobacco, but 'couldn't afford' the coverage. never made sense to me. my husband missed almost four months of work because of a broken heel a few years back; we were lucky we had it.
