Medicare Suppliments. It has a base salary though nothing you'd want to try to live on plus commission. I hate it, I used to think that elderly people were worthy of respect. That they had worked hard through great trials in history and were often taken advantage of because they hadn't been able to keep up with the times. This job changed all of that. While there are some still left (mostly in their 70s and 80s) who fit that catagory most of them are the 60's me generation who feel like the world owes them a retirement. They are vultures who put nothing back for themselves and are looking for a hand out. When they do get the hand out they complain that it is not enough. They as a whole are not interested in bettering themselves or their situation unless some one is just giving them what they think they need for no effort or investment on their part. It has been a real education on the realities of the American population.
