- 6stringmerc 11y agoAh, a valid point, which I could've worked in but frankly I didn't see a lot of that happening in the implementations that I've witnessed. You did make me realize though that I feel a bit like a sucker for paying higher premiums and spending my own money on supplements and workout stuff simply because I won't let my employer hire somebody to review my biological information on a sheet of paper devoid of individual context. I mean, I'd love to be on equal footing with an employer. "Sure, you can look at my health records and tell me areas to improve, no problem. You're going to have to let me review internal financial metrics for places where you can cut back on some things and pay me more though." Fair is fair haha.
