Well, I guess I should be happy, but I'm not. Finally got a job offer. Taking a 1/3 pay cut. Ok, can deal with that for a while.
It just so happens that they were VERY quiet about the health insurance. I had to keep emailing questions about it to the hiring partner.
Turns out all they have is a catastrophic medical plan with a $5000 deductible per individual! They repay you for the first $1000 per year out of your pocket. However, my Cymbalta costs over $200 per month alone, never mind the five other drugs I take, plus pdoc visits and dental and vision, etc.
And, for that reimbursement, it's not an outside party who takes care of it for them, it's one of the partners (it's a CPA firm). So, I would have to turn in receipts for Klonopin, Cymbalta, Neurontin, pdoc visits, etc. Not pleasant, nor something that I would want to do.
Oh, and I'm paying $115 per month for this crappy insurance!
I guess I keep my COBRA insurance that I now have for $400 per month and keep looking (taking the job). It's just such a pain in the butt to interview while you have a job.
I'm hating life right now. Falling into that black hole again.
I got almost $70K in life insurance from both of my parents dying. It's almost gone with me not being able to work since January and paying off all my debts (still have house and student loans). That too is depressing - it's like I wasted it. I was so depressed though at losing both of my parents within 9 months of each other that I could not function.
Not in a good place at all.
