@pepsi_man@TrevorGoodchild right. I think a professional hit wouldn't be done like this. too many variables. You can know when he's going to be in Vail, and you can wait outside for 3 days if needed.
@sickburnbro@TrevorGoodchild Kinda what I was leaning towards. It's too clumsy to be intercompany violence, but too calculated to be a random nigger.
I'm not advocating for it, but there's no rage like the rage you feel when you get the letter saying "we don't cover your wife/kid's procedure, have a nice day".
@Largo@pepsi_man@TrevorGoodchild health is ultimately a bad fit for insurance. Insurance works best as "pay money for thing everyone wants to avoid, but might randomly strike you" - but death comes for all of us.
@pepsi_man@sickburnbro@TrevorGoodchild > Don't cover this *life saving medical procedure, and enjoy arguing with reps for 6 months trying to change our mind.
I despise insurance and everyone involved in the industry.
@Largo@pepsi_man@TrevorGoodchild insurance isn't "gambling" it's statistics; either 'this thing is super rare, but insanely expensive' (life insurance) or 'this thing is uncommon, but too expensive to pay for this year' (crop insurance/car insurance)
@sickburnbro@pepsi_man@TrevorGoodchild Agreed. But I think that isn't necessarily true, average lifespan being 84, most (relatively healthy, ie not fat) people should be able to coast along to their 50s without issue.
And the select few that come down with cancer or need a litre of blood after a car accident should be taken care of.
Since Insurance is simply gambling and the insurance is betting "Nothing ever happens", they do have a moral obligation to pay up when something happens.
