[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They substantially increased the benefit two years ago, I think because the money coming in was in excess of what rhet needed for the benefits paid out. But they increased it too much and [b]word got out[/b] so of course the old rate wasn’t sufficient to cover the major increase. [/quote] Meaning what? [/quote] I take that to mean that at first not as many people were aware of the benefit. But yes, word has gotten out. I know someone who took it to get time off for a boob job. And someone else who got guardianship over her daughter’s newborn so she could get the time off.[b] Another person takes it every year for 3 months as soon as her benefit renews. (These are all my coworkers at a school.)[/b][/quote] How do they survive? The payout is not that much; it's not enough to survive. Do they simply work Uber/Lyft for three months to make ends meet?
