Thoughts on Aflac … I’ve never used it but have heard good things.

Never used it or heard good things about it. (I haven't heard bad things either.) What have you heard?

Not terrible as an offering. What we ran into in the past was they hounded our employees in the parking lot to upsell their offerings. That put us off a bit.

But the coverage is decent.

Heard a few things about it too. But I never get to use it so I can't really give my thoughts about it.

I actually don't know anyone who has used Aflac. I've been wondering who's keeping them in business actually. I haven't heard any good or bad reviews on it either.

Aflac is supposed to be used as an supplemental policy only. They don't really give out a lot of money. This is why you don't hear of many people using them, if they do they don't mention it because it's not their main plan.

I have had clients who had issues with how restrictive it is.

Most folks rave about Aflac's friendly and helpful customer service but that's all I got on them. Not much was said about their actual benefits.

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F

How would you respond to this note sent home on my toddler’s daily report from her in-home daycare provider. Mind you she didn’t say anything to me in person about this.

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

Check the overtime laws for your state!!

I just recently worked 58.6 hours in a week, weekly pay, nice OT profit right? Depends on where you live.

In Iowa, there is no Overtime pay mandate, the overtime pay is at the discretion of the business. I received 58.6 hours of base pay for the week.

If the company makes less than $1 million per year or does not engage in intercontinental sales, the company is not required to pay the overtime rate of time and a half, just your base rate.

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
