The continuing saga of the health insurance
So the HR lady realized that they had made a mistake with the $89 for Jen's insurance and dropped it down to $40something (the difference between the $125 family plan and the $80something employee plus child plan) post-tax. And she made sure I knew about the Queer Tax, which I did. (By the way, the Queer Tax in this case amounts to an extra $117 per paycheck that is added to my taxable income, because that's how much my job pays to insure a dirty, dirty queer.)
The HR lady made a point to let me know that this whole "having to put the same-sex spouse post-tax" was such a pain and made things so /difficult/ and "blah blah, if the rest of the country, blah blah, the IRS says we have to..." and after rolling my eyes over the phone about 60 times I finally managed to say, "Yeah, you should see my taxes." I'm really sorry my unfair tax penalty is difficult for YOU. ;)
But in the continuing saga of the health insurance, today our prescription cards came. With my name and Punk's name on them. ARGH!
I guess I'll be calling HR /again/!! Annoying.
