Short term disability increase

that plus a 21% interest rate... cough, cough..

Ouch!

Sorry, I read that as comp. STD depends on your local. It is under $500/week in mine.

It's all good, figured it was a long day! I got my figures straight from the Teamcare site:

After reading all the responses, I cannot believe the differences all over the country. Misery loves company right? Guess that's why UPS chose Teamcare...like UPS, no consistency.

Ouch!

More like the Teamsters wanted control of that money.

Are you thinking it's too high?

I was looking at a new Ford truck and with 3.25% APR and $5k down 60months, it's $900 month.

Never mind, just realized it was 10 years ago. Back then, might have been a little high.

Yes----$450/month for a car payment is too high.

Even though I hated Teamcare compared to the Company plan that I was in, this is one benefit of Teamcare that was better than the Company plan.

The Company plan that I was in was $350/mo.

So look at that, Teamcare was not a "total" concession.

I have a $418 payment. 6 years @ 0%. Is that too high?

I collected before Teamcare and think I got less than $300/week for the month that I was on it.

 

[Brownslave688]

I got 277 a week from Nov to Feb. For a family of 7

Spending the holidays with your family........priceless.

One of my guys had to get custom orthotics recently that were covered 100% by TeamCare. The company plan did not cover a dime for them when I was considering something similar a few years ago.

In this case I didn't feel bigger was better. I went cheap cuz my mortgage went up $500 this year.

Ouch. My daily driver total cost was less than the taxes on my wife's vehicle.


Vehicles are something a lot of people throw a ton of money away on.

Good catch. I was so aggravated reading all the responses, I really didn't think about what I was writing and just spoke out of my ass.
