My CA friend at mesa told me that his FO took home a check for zero dollars? I find that hard to believe. He claims after he pays for his insurance for the family he is left with nothing. Single FOs at mesa must take home a few hundred dollars a month right?

With a family on your insurance--yes, take-home pay will come out to around $0.

Our health insurance is the worst--not even worth the mirage of a fast uprgrade people hitting property now are pipe-dreaming of.

Wowsa!!! That was unbelievable when he told me...hell most of the stuff he tells me that goes on over there I can't believe. Well hopefully the kids signing up have their parents or spouses insurance.

Years back, Mesa FO's used to go grocery shopping together in uniform and pay with food stamps.

A friend working for them showed me the insurance plans, actually one doesn't even make enough to pay for some of the family plans...more than $800 per pay check! Very sad!

Unless you have something catastrophic happen, paying cash to see the doctor is way cheaper. Even if you end up with a 2k ER bill, the hospital cuts it in half if you don't have insurance.

Isn't that why people buy Hybrids?
