Summer heat, blegh
Jun. 25th, 2022 05:23 pmSo I once again lost access to most of my benefits - I'd even checked them in early May to make sure they were still active, but between then and now everything but my insurance turned to 'went inactive at the end up April'. After yet more emails and phone calls, I finally got an answer to why this keeps happening to me!
And it's really dumb: the system for sending files to the insurers isn't set up for anything past the gender binary, even though HR lets you select non-binary for your gender. And they had a workaround agreement with the insurers, who all promptly decided to ignore it and treat my file as nonexistent.
I have now been promised that they will check my files manually every week until an update gets pushed in July. (I'm wondering how on earth it took this long to figure out, since we're a large org and I can't possibly be the only one who's genderqueer here, but whatever, I'll be happy when it's fixed!)
While stressing over that, I also spent a lot of time cleaning this week because the property manager was finally supposed to come take pictures for a listing yesterday. We arranged a time, she even called the morning of to confirm it was still okay... and then she never showed. And also didn't answer when I called her that afternoon to ask if she was still coming. (Then again, according to her emails, she's too busy to bother talking to tenants outside of four specific hours a week and only then if you email her a detailed agenda ahead of time, so maybe she was too busy to take pictures ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
Ah well, at least the apartment is a lot closer to move-out status now. And we finally have a move-in date: July 1. Gonna be a busy weekend! It's a bit late for flowers I think, but I'm looking forward to fall garden planting.
