biomekanic Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Work had been pretty crazy, and ramping up for more craziness. So, it came as something of a surprise when the boss left a note on my computer that "We needed to talk". I figured it was going to be another round of "You really should be working 14 hours a day, 7 days a week". Instead I got a seperation package. The good news is, that I get about a years worth of pay, and my pension in a lump sum. The bad news is, our health and dental runs out at the end of the month, and the "sore spot" near my molar turned out to be a piece of tooth that came off. In completely different news, I went out to my porch to get water from my change water bucket, and found a squirrel face down in it... At this point, 2008 is fired.

dsoz Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 That is so sad. I am sorry to hear about it. I hope that there is something that you can find in the near future. Too bad the squirrel ruined your water as well. dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyenna Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 have you looked into COBRA? http://www.dol.gov/ebsa/faqs/faq_consumer_cobra.html dunno if it applies to dental insurance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhill_biker Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 You think you have it bad, try being that squirrel. Sorry to hear that, maybe now you can get a chance to come over and check out my tank, and me yours. Enjoy the time off for a little bit, and find a new job in a month or so. That is what I did when I got laid off this summer. Now it is back in the grind, and I am pulling the 6-7 days a week biz again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
