    What a sad testament to our “advanced” generation. Technology was supposed to make us better humans, wasn’t it?

      Good luck to them making this coverage available and making an underwriting profit. As we have seen on this blog, Cyber Bullying is rampant. Add Facebook and other Social Media and you have the perfect storm.

        Awww, poor Agent is bullied, better get him a warm cup of milk.

        Now the Mexicans, Muslims, Millenials, young people, egg-heads, weathermen, scientists, Athiests (all non-Christians), liberals, progressives, socialists, data modelers, “price optimizers”, people at seemingly all companies but his, gay people, poor people, non-whites, Californians, New Yorkers, Chicagoans, non-Texans, climate scientists, “libtards”, “RHINOs”, Sanders supporters, Clinton supporters, people making minimum wage, doctors, government employees, union members, protestors, texters, cyclists, and oddly, the one guy who he always whines about seeing walking through a parking lot with his head buried in a phone but nothing happens, are all Damned Miscreants who need to shut the Hell up and take his well-deserved insults!

        Clown.

          It sounds like you have been bullied in school all your life angry young man. I could recommend a good psychiatrist for you if you like. At the rate you are going, you will need a padded cell within the year. I can’t imagine an employer keeping you on the payroll when you blog all day instead of doing your job.

      GoldC, do you make your employees work 60-70 hours a week like many claim they do? Is that a form of bullying them so they can get a paycheck? I thought technology was making things easier and people could get more done in a shorter time.

        Are you kidding me? She sticks to her hours, certainly the closing minute if not the opening minute. She can leave a task partially done if her time is up. I fill in the slack, even on my once-in-5-years vacation or the middle of the night.

    Good lord…due to mental anguish?

    So, I can claim being cyber-harrassed/bullied and get compensated for that?

    No…people won’t abuse that to hell and gone to get a free week off of work.

    You can pay for spa days to deal with the mental “anguish” too.

    Oy. O.o

      I’m pretty sure that this is supposed to be for the people who are pushed to the point of suicidal tendencies.

        I get that. My point is that people will find a way to abuse the coverage.

        Over and over.

    The policy probably mirrors the coverage in the UK and Ireland, which limits payouts to incidents that actually result in financial damage or documented harm…e.g. a diagnosis of PTSD or a kid having to be pulled out of a public school and placed in private school. In the UK there also has to be at least 3 incidents before the coverage kicks in.

      Thanks for those pieces of information, Kathleen. I had no idea that’s how the coverage worked overseas and hope you’re right that similar clauses will be written into the policies over here!
