    I came pretty close to working for Simon's out of Salt Lake City until I found out how expensive their health insurance is. Not in my budget at all.

    6 weeks ago it was JFI on another post. You have added Simon's. Is this the new company? Care to elaborate on why it's a bad company?

    Probably the same reason every other company is bad: Low pay, not paying, "can't" get home, terrible equipment, or whatever kind of sob story they make up on how they're the greatest most perfect driver in the world and the big bad company screwed them over with no fault of their own.

    Honestly, I don't expect much on this side of the forums.

    I think they are talking about stinky Simon, with the skunk in their logo.

    Yes, I was. They have great equipment, just expensive insurance.

    Theirs is based on your age, and being a seasoned citizen made it rather expensive.

    Well EXCUSE ME for gettin old, lol. But in my defense, I’m 57 yrs. old, weigh 11 lbs. more than I did at 17 yrs. old, take no maintenance meds, have 20/10-20/15 vision, can still do 30 pull ups 45 push-ups, and maintain an at rest heart rate of 67 bpm. So how exactly are tripled premiums my fault?
