I work for a Fortune 500 company. During annual insurance enrollment this January, I was given a choice to quit smoking or pay an additional $50 a month for my insurance. I’m an occasional smoker, mainly when I drink. I don’t want to give them up and since our insurance rates are dirt cheap when compared to most, I chose the additional $50. I have to admit, I was pissed that we have coworkers that are morbidly obese and they left them alone. We also have a handful of diabetic workers that are too undisciplined to stay on their diet and they end up missing a week or so of work almost every year to get their blood sugar back in check. If they are going to penalize me, fatties are fair game too.
