Insurance salesman to me: Any health conditions we should know of?

Me: Well, I have Type 2 diabetes.

Insurance salesman: Do you take medication for it?

Me: I do.

Insurance salesman: What medications do you take for the diabetes?

Me: I take insulin.

Insurance salesman: Oh, you’re a Type 1. We don’t insure Type 1s.

Me: I’m not a Type 1. I’m a Type 2 who uses insulin along with diet and exercise.

Insurance salesman: No, if you take insulin you’re Type 1. I know what I’m talking about.

Me: Don’t call me again. :::click:::

Ugh! Need I say more?

This is funny, sad and typical.
Whatever you can say about know-it-alls and insurance salesmen, I at least had one who tried to work with me.

Thanks for the story.
