[QUOTE="derrick, post: 4836663, member: 72909"] i was working and unloading a truck. after unloading I stepped out of the truck. using 3 points of contact and when I took my next step i rolled my ankle i think between the flat and the grade with the holes in it. well felt a sharp pain then went right way. well kept working. hour later started feeling pain and getting worse. told manager and he said go home for the night and if I feel bad tomorrow they will send me to the clinic. went home woke up to use the bathroom and had to craw to the bathroom because of pain. went back in the morning to work and couldn't walk without a cane so asked to go to the clinic. i had to sit and go to 2 rooms and talk to 3 sups and a regional manager just to go to the damn clinic because they kept says wait one more day or wait over the weekend. it was a stage 2 sprain and im on light duty. can't lift more then 5 pounds, or be on my feet for more then 3 hours a day. then went to the hospital because clinic only gave me a compression band and said take pain meds. hospital actually gave me a leg brace. now manager is saying I have to go through some program and have to do the 5 and 10 and driving test and all. problem is I wasn't driving when I got hurt I was in the building. also I have to come in the normal shift and help the ladies at the counter if they need help. Makes no sense to me because I can't lift more then 5 pounds or be on my feet for 3 hours a day. so can they even do this? [/QUOTE]
