Sometimes the choice hurts

Morning gang-

 So..I have been on the job hunt for 3 months now and have had little luck. I finally got an offer from the local high school and thought all our money problems and such was a thing of the past. I went in to sign papers and found out that the district has a 100% particiapation health plan. What this means to me is that I am required to take their insurance as my primary hence being dropped from my husbands very good insurance. I was so upset..I havent worked this hard to find a insurance to cover WLS only to blow it for a minimum paid job. I have tried every way to figure out how to get around this mandatory insurance thing but it isn;t going to work. So..I called and declined the job and am still broke and jobless..lol. This surgery means the world to me and I hope there is something out there that will allow me to work AND get WLS. Thanks for listening.

THAT is ridiculous!!!! Why would they force you to take their insurance, when you are happy as pie with your husband's coverage??  Why is it any of their business which insurance you choose (or really, if you choose to have any at all)???  Ugh!! Sorry that happened, but things happen for a reason, and that job was not meant for you!  Good luck in your job search, and good luck with your surgery!!!

Thank you for the support. I believe with alot of school districts..they get a good rate if 100% of employees are on plan. It was sad to turn it down but I havent worked this hard for this long to throw it away. Thank God for my husband having excellent insurance..it is worth more than gold.
