Ah, pensions.
i dont know enough of the clergy rules to know if all those in the clergy, priests, brothers, and nuns have social security. i do know that some of them pay social security out of the parish collection, and this is of course known by the parish council. i dont know what happens for the secular order. The pope, of course, belongs to the monastic order, and is of course provided with a pension.
Do you read Robert Ludlum? You might remember Matt Damon portraying Jason Bourne. Ludlum wrote about the pope in The Road to Gandolfo. BUT i digress.
HTT talks about the calvary of getting your benefits, especially pensions in this time of ACOP. Surely there must be an easier way - like GSIS, or perhaps SSS utilizing the barangay - this may not be easy also.
Perhaps it is time for a fresh look at procedures and an even fresher look at the front line personnel - those who directly transact with members.... Perhaps. Members do not always complain to SSS. They grin and bear it.
but read HTT's words, not just my meandering comments ...
