hey vicc i have very strong opinions about w/c in 1998 i had a work related injury and broke my leg in 3 places. i came off the ski mountain on the back of a snomobile. i told my direct superviror who was driving my do what had happened. i told him i would call the office after i figured out on mon.
something random happened when i called to give them the bad news that i had broken my leg in 3 places. the company had in the interm decided i was faking my injuries and demanded my presence at a meeting. i went to the meeting and let them jabbber on about how i had failed to notify anyone at the company (which i had). the company investigator told me flat out the didnt believe my claim and werent going to cover my care....so i got on my cellphone and called a friend in justice and had a polygraph scheduled within 1 hour. the company freaked realizing that i was undoubtedly telling the truth and they really didnt need the bad publiscity. before i left to take the poly they had sceduled my surgery to fix my 3 fractured bones.

w/c definetly sucks but if you go in and wont accept what they have to say you will find that the majority of them throw together their arguments in a matter of seconds.
unfortunately some of us really do need their pathetic system
