Are you providing full health insurance and retirement plan

are you emulating Wal-Mart?

We have first-class benefits, including a top-of-the-line health
insurance plan,

BC/BS PPO.


a non-contributory defined-benefit pension plan, a 401k,

Simple IRA

and a life insurance policy equal to annual salary.

Same

We contribute a
share of profits to the 401k on behalf of the employee.

That's compulsory to most plans.

Our employees
pay $4.50 for generic prescriptions and $8.00 for non-generics,

$10 and $15

but
that's going up next year to $10 and $15. New employees get two weeks
vacation the first year

1 week

and that goes to three weeks the third year.

2 weeks year 2, 3 weeks year three

In
addition, we have 12 paid holidays and we shut down from noon on
Christmas eve to the day after New Year's Day.

5 paid holidays

We also provide 20 days
of paid sick leave a year.

Paid? Every year? I call "bull****". With 3 weeks vacation, 12 paid
holidays, and 20 paid sick days that's 47 *paid* days off every year.
Are
they hourly employees? For a "small business", that's the road to
bankruptcy.

Boy...and you had me going there for a minute.


Oh, I forgot. We also provide everyone with LTD.

The company provides an insurance plan that pays 50% of an employe's
salary for Long Term Disability. Employes have the option of purchasing
an additional 16.66%, bringing their total to 66.66%. The basic benefit
maximum is $4,000 per month. With the buy up, the limit is increased to
$10,000 per month.
