[QUOTE="KS1068, post: 284287, member: 13335"] Before you critized, you should take at look at it from my perspective, a recent college graduate about to start a great paying job for a recent college graduate, and now that job dumped me because I am on workmen's comp, and cannot walk, yet still my bills including student loan payments keep coming in, sorry if I am asking if I will get a paycheck. The reason for asking about what I am entitled to, because I was a temp worker, not a full time employee, so I was wondering if the rules of the state are different,, I understand I was not a regular employee plus I am not educated in workmen's comp laws, never thought I needed to know anything, never thought I would get hurt.. If you were in my shoes you would be asking about what you are entitled too,, I am not a lazy bum living off the system. My knee got really hurt working a job that I thought would help pay some bills til my next job started in January. Oh for the record, I switched Dr's because the other was a jerk, you failed to mention that is why I demanded another COMPANY Dr (didn't demand for something that I did not have a right too), he told me I was fine, and ended up not being the case, plus he was 1 1/2hrs hrs away. I learned UPS is SUPPOSE to give you a list after you are hurt, and you CHOOSE your Dr off the list according to where you live, but UPS called me the day I told them I got hurt, and they ASSIGNED me this Dr, and gave me an appt time,, I did not know I had a right to a list til my parents told me, as they own a business and have workmens comp list posted.. I hope you NEVER get hurt on the job, but if you ever do, I just hope you get the best treatment available to you too, because when you are in pain, the last thing you need is to worry about what Dr you have to see, if he is a jerk,, etc.. I never said I hired a lawyer, but my parents wanted me to consult one if Liberty drags their feet about seeing Dr's, but that has not been the case, Liberty and my UPS case manager have been great.. I am NOT out to make a killing, if I never get anymore checks or money (I got my back checks from working on the truck, I was concerned they weren't going to give them to me) I will be fine I will make it somehow financially but all I am asking if I will get something for the time I am unable to work is all, not expecting 40hrs a week pay, or something unrealistic,, but all I really want is medical treatment to get my KNEE back, so I can leave UPS in my past..
