Hazardous Job

2 June, 2008 (00:51) | Health, Work | By: Mi

I wonder what kind of accidents will qualify for the life insurance thingie with my company? Because upon signing up with the job offer, we also have life insurance.

Our new schedule is 2:30am to 11:30am for this month of June. And because of the time we have to be at work, we have an additional P2000 hazard pay which they call “Night Shift Allowance” or something like that. This is helpful to me because I will be taking a cab from Buendia to my workplace for the whole month unless I could figure out a cheaper way. I’ll probably have to ask my crush at work since we practically come from the same direction.

Now, does my life insurance cover super-speeding buses on the highway? Or just accidents like someone happened to come along and stab me?

I like speeding buses at night (or rather, early morning) because of the nice cold wind on my face on my way to work. But I’m also kind of afraid because it’s like a roller coaster ride.

We didn’t really have an option what kind of life insurance we could have. I don’t remember having to read any fine print. It’s not like in auto insurance comparisons that you have to read each and every line carefully to make sure you’re getting the best of what you need or something. There was nothing to compare with. Just a line to write our names on it and sign.

I guess there was no real need for a choice anyway. They were going to give it to us. It’s not like we had a choice.

Meh. My head is messed up. I haven’t had a day-off since Monday last week. I’m going to be working until tomorrow. That’s like 8 days of work. Oh well. Happy Happy Life.

as far as i know, super-speeding buses and all accidents related to work are still covered by the insurance. getting trapped in manhole while walking to (or from) work is still considered work-related.
as for the insurance, i’m not really excited bout the life insurance coz i won’t get to enjoy it. but if yu really, really need money, i suggest you cut-off your thumb (if you’re right-handed, cut off the left thumb) as that is equivalent to P50,000 (at the very least). hehe
