so right at the end of december, i was offered a full time position here at work. considering that my qualification for health insurance under my dads plan was expired, i really had no choice but to accept. along with this position, i had to agree to a .25$ pay decrease to cover the "benefits" :happysad:

i know over a 40 hour week, that only adds up to 10 a week but here is where im pissed....

they started taking the pay out already but my benefits dont start til ive been "full time" for 30 days. i feel like im being cheated.

discuss?

Thats the way it works unfortunately. You pay in advance for health insurance....so, when you quit, you have the full month paid for.

that sucks they should start the decrease the same day you get your benefits

yeah, it covers them b/c the insurance companies bill the 1st of the month. They already have your $ to pay for it.

when they told me i had to take the .25 cents deduction, they were like dont worry its only 10 a week.... i wanted to be like yeah its only 10 a week for you, too where's the "thanks for being a good worker for 9 months"

$10 a week is not bad at all. I pay that as well and I work for a huge corporation with great benefits so for a bank you should be happy it is that cheap. As for the benefits not strating right away that is bs. Mine started right when I became full time.

thankfully my health stuff is all paid for. My wifes, that's $400/month outta my check>
