[QUOTE]Originally posted by amtraxmaniac: [QB] I concur. It is unjust. And I'm not ashamed to say that is why I do non profit work and decided sometime in my 20's to forego my dream of being an engineer. Blessings depend on your perspective. If you view the world by comparing yourself with the 'have nots', yes, I am fortunate. Unfortunately, these are trying times in both the public and private sector. My job is dependent on funding sources/aka, political: based on state and local budgets. Mr Norman, I take it you've followed the mess out here in California in terms of the budget crisis (finally passed-88 days late)....the point I'm making is that ALL sectors of employment are vulnerable to something. There are pro's and cons to any field, and (I don't believe anyone would disagree) an injustice is injustice: regardless of the source or cause. And in terms of Worker's Comp, I've had my issues with them as of recently, so I don't exactly consider Worker's Comp a blessing. Lets just say I ended up spending money out of my own pocket when I was released prematurely and the medical issue persisted. I ended up spending thousands. The WC doctors did so very little, that the ailment got WORSE. I filed a complaint with WC that, for what I was told, likely went straight to the shredder. I was basically stamped as a malingerer even though to that point I had only missed a single day of work over the injury and I was not asking for time off: just appropriate medical treatment since the injury DID occur on the clock. A blessing?!?!?! Lets try workers comp reform gone WILD. [/QB][/QUOTE]
