I was sort of unhappy that my health insurance premium at work went up $7 a month. Then I was talking to my sister tonight... her insurance went up $20 a WEEK. Do the math on that one... it's like a 50 cent an hour pay cut (at a place where the manager acts like it's big news that he was able to talk the company into increasing pay 12 cents an hour when they were only planning on offering 10 cents.) The insurance hasn't changed any... and it's good insurance, but it's not great.
I suppose it's better to pay a lot for benefits than to have none, but still... I wonder if insurance went up that much or if that was the company's way of sneaking in a pay cut.
