Thank goodness I haven't. I've been pretty lucky not to have any major injuries in my life.
Take other peoples advice and just get better. The older I get I've been getting little reminders that I'm not as young as I used to be. Aches and pains for example. Take care of yourself. Chances are you'll have many other jobs in your life, but this is your only body.

I really appreciate all the info guys! It turns out I have a torn meniscus in my right knee and I meet with the Dr. on Monday to go over the MRI results on my left knee. They are going to do Arthroscopic surgery on my right knee on Thursday and they said it is about a week of recovery. |

So what happened with your employer?
And isn't arthroscopic a 3 month recovery? |

The good news is, I have a job interview the day before my surgery and it seems like a winner so far. The only tricky part is my recovery period and how long that will take? |

But your current employer is paying your doctor's bills and your wages, right?

In 2001, on the eve of my 30th birthday, I slipped on a patch of black ice while leaving work one night. I broke my ankle in the fall. Worker's comp took care of things with no issues, and after 2 months I was able to return to work. Plus, a co-worker I couldn't stand got fired due to her own stupidity while I was out!

I hurt my back working for a small locally owned company.. at the time I really liked the employeer - but had to take time off work I couldnt stand, walk, or get out of a chair..
due to my own stubborness and stupidiity I was able ot convince the docs to take me off work mans comp after 3 days.. my back goes out now every year or so due to something really stupid (getting out of a car, standing up too fast..) I wish I would have stayed home and did the theropy now... but nothing that I can do about it.. |

Oh yeah, all the medical has been paid for and I've been getting disability checks (66.7% of my normal wage) although they seem to come in spurts? I got the first one a week after the injury and then after like 3 more weeks I got 3 of them at once? But it's all good.
