That was my experience verbatim. The employee even suggested going to Costco specifically, as he thought it was ridiculous that they weren't covering them.

Stoicism appears to have had a great deal of influence on Jewish writing at the time. Have a look at "St. Paul and Stoicism" if you are so inclined. Interesting paper.

Agreed, and the resources that a commute consumes (time, wear and tear on a vehicle, fuel, mental reserves either sitting in traffic or dealing with other people on public transportation, etc) are not considered in compensation...
Your most valuable resource, time, which can be neither replenished nor its true quantity known, is being wasted for very little gain.

The irony being... isn't euthanasia the ultimate freedom? If it is our body, and we have full autonomy as long as we aren't causing direct harm, the "American Way" should be to allow the freedom of choice as to what happens to said body.
