[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 86201, member: 484"] I agree with More. you lost two days worth of wages, plus the benifits for those days. You should be reimbursed for those losses. Chances are UPS will sue them for the medical bills. ( they have done that successfully here several times.) Last year they sued a home owner because one of our drivers was instructed by the home owner to only leave the packages at the front door, an unsafe walk path, that he attemtped after dark and broke an ankle. I believe the insurance settled for 14 grand with UPS. On a side note, back when we were on paper, I had a customer sic their dog on me. Without looking up, I told them "careful, that "sic im" in the state of Tennessee is assault with a deadly weapon" and that I would press charges. Might want to check it out from state to state, but if an owner laughingly or not sics their dog on you, press charges. A dog bite is no laughing matter. d PS, yes you were less than smart for waiting for medical treatment. [/QUOTE]
