I’m faced with a moral dilemma. I’m due to elect my benefits for 2009 by next week. Even though my job is being discontinued at the end of this year, my benefits coverage extends at least a few months into 2009, and longer if I so choose. One of the options I have when making my elections is to have a Flexible Spending card. To my understanding, what this does is allows me to purchase medications and use for medical procedures like a credit card, and then the bill is gradually deducted from my paychecks throughout the year. I was recently made aware of a very big loophole in the terms of the flex card, and I’m not sure whether or not I’ll be acting on it.
Posts Tagged “Dilemma”I got a call this morning while I was at work and when I answered it, an automated message told me I was getting a Collect call from Arlington jail. However, because it was on my cell phone I wasn’t able to accept the charges to find out who it was that was calling me. It gave me the option to input credit card information to accept the call and I just hung up figuring it was either a scam, or the person trying to call would find another way. Sure enough, I got a call a few moments later from a bail bonds business informing me that my “friend” Eric was in jail and he had given my name and number as someone who could bail him out. The question is…would I want to? |
