Yep, such was my situation from age 18-27. Either there was no health insurance offered at all, the price was too high, or HR waffled on disclosing what the premium would be and just wanted a signature on a line (thanks but no thanks).
The other trick now is taking on an independent contractor instead of hiring an employee. As Interesting Times said, it’s foolish for us to tie health insurance to employment given how fluid employment is these days.
