A depressed woman has lost her benefits because her insurance agent found Facebook photos where she appears to be having fun.
CBC reports:
A Quebec woman on long-term sick leave is fighting to have her benefits reinstated after her employer’s insurance company cut them, she says, because of photos posted on Facebook…She said her insurance agent described several pictures Blanchard posted on the popular social networking site, including ones showing her having a good time at a Chippendales bar show, at her birthday party and on a sun holiday - evidence that she is no longer depressed, Manulife said.
I can’t even describe how angry this makes me. And in the comments, some people are actually defending the insurance company. RAGE.
I read the first paragraph and laughed because I thought it was a joke. But it wasn’t. What. The. Fuck.
