I’m feeling better and better about this contract

handbook

Last week I pointed out some of the health coverage exclusions I was concerned about with my new company’s health contract.

Well, upon inspecting the contract a little further after a fellow employee pointed out, I now have no reason to be concerned.

Why, you may ask? Does that graphic in the middle look a bit familiar? Let’s take a closer look:

Yes it does! It’s the Starship Enterprise! If this contract is good enough for Starfleet, it’s surely good enough for me.

Health coverage exclusions

Going over my employment contract, I was browsing the Employee Benefits & Health Coverage section. Some of the exclusions were a bit confusing and/or disappointing:

2)被保险人殴斗、醉酒,服用、吸食或注射毒品;
The insured assaults, gets drunk, takes, sucks or injects drug;

No getting drunk or sucking drugs?

10)战争、军事行动、暴乱或武装叛乱;
War, military action, civil commotion, or armed rebellion;

This doesn’t leave a lot of room for activities outside of work.

11)核爆炸、核辐射或核污染。
Nuclear explosion, nuclear radiation or nuclear pollution.

Now that’s just unfair.
