[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 169951, member: 1944"] I agree with the weight limit, it should go back. I went to a doc on Saturday and I have 30 stitches in my arm and my back. Some kind of tumors, hoping they are benign. He wouldnt write me off work even for a few days. He wouldnt even give me one tiny pain pill. I asked him if I could work, he said yeah you can work, I said do you know what I do? His words were, just tell the boss to take it easy on ya for a few weeks. he said as long as I wasnt throwing 50 pd boxes around I would be ok. I tried to tell him what I do, and he just looked at me, like, "no you are a woman, I know you cant possibly have a physical job". It will be ok Honey....So I thought I should tell my boss, he just said why didnt you call off? Well I dont know about most of you but I cant take 2 wks off with no pay. Its ridiculous for us to be hefting 100 pd boxes plus, with nothing more than a dolly, when there is a freight service, now within our company. We are a small pkg company, or so I thought. Anyway, I didnt rip em out yet, so far so good. I know I wasnt allowed to work with 15 stitches from a dog bite, but this doc said I could work with thirty........... [/QUOTE]
