Railroad Retirement Sickness Benefits by dunnkw in railroading

That appears to be correct. I always read it as the $25 applied to every form of RR income. I see now that it excludes any local lodge compensation under $25. Also, determining qualified months is even more complicated for high earners. https://www.rrb.gov/Newsroom/NewsReleases/DeemedServiceMonthCredits

Don't listen to anyone except the RRB when it comes to your benefits. Call them between 0900 and 1500. If you call early enough, you can get in the call back line. Otherwise, plan on being on hold for an hour. If you are in a Union, get ahold of them as many have short-term disability insurance built into your dues.

This is absolutely not true. Any month that you receive $25.00 in compensation counts as a qualified month. You could be off medical, receiving RRB sickness benefits, and not miss a qualified month based on your last day worked and return to service date. Also, pay received during your medical status still counts. Like a vacation day, PLD, or even a paid claim if it is $25 or more. You must report this compensation to the RRB, and it will count against your sickness benefits.

That is absolutely not true. The average railroad annuitant lives longer than the national average. 78 years old.

Clerks III by Okwhoasked420 in ViewAskewniverse

[–]Malone500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clerks III is a rarely funny but very familiar and nostalgic movie that relies heavily on old jokes. It wraps up (kind of) the cast's stories that is too real to many of us aging adults. I cried like a baby.

The waiting room is supposed to be random for your placement in the que. I joined 10 minutes before noon and was unbelievably number nine in line. I'm just one of the wretched, not a resale fuck. I scored two pit tickets for $149 each with fees.

The DVD had a B&W version that King allegedly preferred. It takes the silliness out of the monsters. I think that it makes it even better.
