Ever wish you could be a fly on the wall when your employees are talking about open enrollment? Every open enrollment season we share snippets of the conversations happening on Twitter (here are some from 2011, 2010 and 2009). Emotions always run high, and this year #election2012 and #obamacare amplified that. In case you missed it, here’s some of the enrollment dialogue on Twitter this year. #insights #eavesdropping #flyonthewall

My job now asks my sexual orientation for benefits enrollment. This is new. And suspect. There is no “other” option!
