provide insurance. If they have more than 50 employees, it can be had for about $3 a day per employee. For most companies over 50 employees, the cost per day is within reach. As the company gets bigger, the costs go down even further. Economy of scale.

That's right... that's about how much very basic HMO coverage costs a company. About $1100 a year per employee. Employee picks up co-pays, sometimes the deductible, sometimes a small contribution. I can understand not offering it until after the first 3 months, since restaurants have such high turnover, but if after 17 years they haven't come up with something...

Then again, Amanda is to be questioned why she stayed there that long with no insurance or other benefits...

I feel your grr... I have one too.
