A curiosity ran through my head recently. This is nothing recent, but an event from last year.
I was double shifting, unloading an Amazon trailer during the twilight shift. I was picking up boxes off the floor when the next layer (wall) came falling down onto my head, knocking off my glasses and breaking the frame. I was already a year into my employment at that point, so I had insurance. As I was already way past due for a new prescription, this wasn't a big issue, and I got it taken care of a few days later.
If I did not have insurance, or I had just already gotten the new glasses, would UPS have been liable for the incident? Would there have been a way to get them to pay for new glasses?
