you don't get offered insurance as a sub.
@ParksideRes :
I don 't know about all that-he's always told me that he qualified for it as a sub.
Hell the regular teachers pay nearly 100% premium.
They pay alil over 50% (most districts pitch in even more where they can pay as little as 20%, I know Brenham did for my mom), on some great plans with numerous options. On their BCBS plans (we have the same at work, minus all the other options), I'd pay about $860 for myself (no employer contribution), where if I was a teacher, it would be $266. It's not a bad deal, in comparison to others.
