[QUOTE="theUPSman, post: 747639, member: 15870"] @Upstate...It just started on a Sunday. I hadn't felt any pain the Friday before. My career with UPS has come to an end. I've resigned. My doctor says that getting injured again is high, as my shoulders are unstable and he strongly suggests I don't have such a physical job. I can strengthen my shoulders, but it will take a long time to get it done. Even if I strengthen, it doesn't mean I won't get hurt again. It wasn't a comp claim. I couldn't even lift my arm so I wouldn't have been able to go into work that Monday anyway. My sup. claims that things are going downhill anyway with the company. The drivers always complain and she says that driving sucks, esp. with this economy due to routes being cut and more packages are being piled on the drivers. There are 4 guys that could've been on the road but have been on preload for the last year. While the money is good, my health is more important. I'm only 23 so luckily I can pursue other avenues in which I've started, one of them offering full-time benefits to part-time employees. I'm also pursuing my dreams of audio engineering which is working out for me! [/QUOTE]
