Rabble-rousing

Again someone's putting out an outrageous rumor to make people angry enough to strike. NOONE ANYWHERE IN AMERICA pays $400 a month in health insurance premiums! If a unionized worker believes that posting he/she should go check out the health insurance websites out there. Maybe $40 a month. These kinds of negotiations usually hinge around what the company-paid insurance covers, what co-pays there are, etc.

No they do not pay 400 a month.

They're paying 400 dollars a week. We have contractors at work paying those premiums. It's sick.

So your saying they Pay 1200 a month?

Why would you do that. Sock the money away. 1200 a month put away and if yor get sick you have i to fall back on.

If you are union and you have to pay it. MOVE or quit the union.

I used to be in a Union.. IBEW it had it's place but whe i got paid the same as the guy next to me doig less work and getting advanced I said screw it.

My friend at Q pays $400 a month (he's a manager), but he also did mention there was a cheaper plan that he could also choose from.


ihope

@swbell.net
your manager friend at quest is paying $400 a month because managers must pay more to offset the free ride the union gets

NOONE ANYWHERE IN AMERICA pays $400 a month in health insurance premiums! I can only answer one way -- BULL SH*T.

You are so out of touch it's unbelieveable. I pay $160 per month for just MYSELF and it's not the premium healthcare plan. And I work for QWEST as a manager. If I add my husband onto my healthplan, it increases to $300 per month. My former boss just retired and to keep the Qwest Health Plan, he's paying $375 per month for his wife and himself. I know other people in this area who pay more than $350 per month for a family of 4.
