Best bet is to contact UPS hr and ask about disability and contact whoever they suggest. It would seem anyway. |

Rep Power: 642 | Re: I have a serious question about a fellow worker Call the 'dishonesty' line? It's not just for theft, or I don't think so since they say 'dishonesty' line and not 'theft' line. Also if you got your insurance company (ours is manulife in canada) on your route try to find the person that investigates fraud and whisper the little tidbit in their ear. |

(but this piece of crap tried to break into my house and I have a wife and 3 kids (all small children)) for a definite reason.
The least problem this person would have is me ratting him out. His actions goes beyond tools stolen,or job related BS.
I can not post how I would exterminate the rodent infestation trying to invade my home.

Rep Power: 2490 | Re: I have a serious question about a fellow worker lol ok he said they "might" have broken into the truck or taken the tools from the truck. they definitly tried breaking into the house. (according to the OP)
If this were the case, you would have theft /breaking and entering (attempted) and tresspassing etc charges against them. So I agree, sounds like a BS story, unless the thread author only "suspects" the person tried to break in as well as suspect of stolen tools.
no one is that passive, with 3 children and a wife at home, to let something like that go if you KNEW they tried to break in and did not report something.
the whole story would be nice |

Rep Power: 27053 | Re: I have a serious question about a fellow worker I have a friend of mine who does workers comp/insurance fraud investigations. He is an independent contractor who works on a commission basis for the state and the insurance companies and, unfortunately, he is quite busy. He has told me of cases where he has caught people with back injuries repairing their roof, people with neck and shoulder injuries playing softball, etc. Insurance fraud is a major problem.
As far as the tools and the "break in", your passive reaction leads me to believe that you are simply embellishing your story.

BS | I don't know, fedex4 Life, assuming that you are who you are(as many posters who work for fedex have pointed out, it seems like you are not hip to current trends at fedex and thus possibly a troll of some sorts).
But let's say you are legit. Your behavior is very similar to the original poster's situation. Let's look at your circumstances. Someone has not only tried to break into your house. He has broken into your house and has stolen your money and is laughing at you . His name is Fred Smith. Instead of going to the courts , you prefer to become his number one fan on browncafe. Go make another thread about how great Fedex(the company that has you by the balls) is.
