take this job & shove it

After a two year pay freeze, the corporation finally gave us a pay raise.

.19 cents an hour.
During this time, the company spent over 3 BILLION in new developments & acquisitions.

and how much did they raise what you have to pay for insurance?

They did not raise it at all!


Well that was the offical word. Then a few days later they sent a correction addendum....
they would charge the same amount....

but oops! It will no longer cover 100% after co pays, but 80%.

They raised the co pays (meds up to $50 bucks a pop), deductible,($500 or more depending on what you need), and other back door hikes.

But get this-- they ask us to "donate generously" to United Way..... & other charities.

Yea! I'll give generously when I get paid generously.

Meanwhile I am donating 20% of my medical bill & other misc expenses.
