Some bull crap way of after your first full month. So if you start on 12/2/18 you don’t start getting insurance till 2/1/19.

Should be the first of the month following 30 days of employment. So I started the 24th of June on Aug 1 it kicked in. If you start May 2 it would start June 1 because 30 days in May. If you start May 3 then it would be July 1. Get it?

You can wait on cobra. Cause you can retroactivity get it up to 6 months I think.

Your thought made me do some research. This is what I found:”One cost-effective option is to wait to get COBRA until the end of the 60-day window. That way you won’t pay premiums, but you can still get retroactive coverage back to the qualifying date if you find you need COBRA.”
Thanks for your help!
