This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi Jeff, =20 I did raise rates to cover it. It's just a pain in the butt to have to do it, not to mention that it's $$ totally wasted! =20 Jim =20 ________________________________ From: caut-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:caut-bounces@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Jeff Olson Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2006 6:33 PM To: College and University Technicians Subject: Re: [CAUT] disablity insurance =20 I would just raise my rates to them to cover those ridiculous requirements. If they didn't want to pay those rates, I'd tell them to go screw themselves. (I wouldn't broadcast to them that I was charging them more. But really, if there's no law that requires them to make you carry those things, it would seem perfectly reasonable for them to absorb the cost, since it's their policies which are generating it.) =20 JO ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Jim Busby <mailto:jim_busby@byu.edu> =20 To: College and University Technicians <mailto:caut@ptg.org> =20 Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2006 4:08 PM Subject: RE: [CAUT] disablity insurance =20 Hi Wim, =20 Actually, I should have made it clearer. It's not for BYU that I need all the extra coverage, it's for the outside work I contract to do. The LDS church has "FM Groups" (facility management) of about 20 buildings. There are usually 4 or 5 pianos per building. I used to do three FM groups but now I only do one. It's kind of silly to pay that much for one FM group, but since the world has gone lawsuit crazy they felt they needed all contractors to have WC and liability insurance. You may wonder why I keep that FM group. Well, it's because that's where I live and I can't stand the pianos to be out of tune. =20 Jim =20 =20 ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
