And the saga continues!

So DH got a call from a different job today and they basically offered him the job, it makes more than he makes now by about $5/hr.  BUT they don't offer benefits, at all, nothing...and that is the main reason he is searching for a job!  Its like he gets offered a job he doesn't want, but can't have the one he DOES want....sigh...

Re: And the saga continues!

  • Ugh!  Can he negotiate with the potential new employer at all for benefits?

  • Apparently its a small business that has not been around much more than a year and does not offer benefits to any employees yet. The dilemma is that this job would give him more experience on the software side of things (which is why he didn't get the first job)

  • Ugh it figures that he gets offered the job he doesn't want.  What a bummer!  He should definitely hold out for the whole package...benefits are too hugely important.  He'll find something perfect soon :)
  • If you aren't huge Dr goers, you might look into packages you can buy on your own. My DH pays less on his own plan than if we added him to my co plan. I don't pay anything for my HMO with my current co. Do you contribute to your current plan? It might be worth looking into a separate plan if you pay already. Good luck!!
