<prompt> Human: My current Jobs benefits end at midnight on the day I resign a friday. And my new job starts the following monday. I have not received any benefits packets yet but Im concerned that my family wont have coverage for that weekend. How is this typically handled? Will my new job allow me to backdate my coverage to saturday? Do I just cross my fingers for the weekend? Cobra doesnt really seem to be an option.Edit: This article Appears to explain it pretty well. If something comes up, I can select cobra and get retroactive coverage.  <response>: Lock them in a closet for the weekend
