Yesterday I had a conversation with the blood bank

[rurallib]

I was connecting the blood bank with a friend who wanted to do a blood drive.
Somehow the conversation turned to the little perks they give for donations, tshirts etc.
The Blood center lady asked if I had anything I would like to see as a perk?
I said I would really like access to their health care program (Large university hospital). She was kind of taken aback
She asked me to explain further. I told her that with a $10,000 deductible, I will need to be on my death bed to go to a doctor. I suggested that perhaps having donors whose access to HC is limited is probably not a good idea.
She was really surprised by my comments. She said she would bring it up.

1. $10k "deductible" = a "major medical" plan.

Those aren't meant to be health care plans, just backstops.

2. I don't give blood.

It costs too damn much to get it back.

3. Those darn banks and their perks.

4. I've given 16 gallons and what do I get

Another day older and deeper in debt
St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
