[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 902270, member: 13921"] Sorry for your injury. Like others have said, lawyer up now. Do not sign any papers other than with YOUR lawyer. You cannot drive while you are taking Vicodin. As long as you need that to control the pain, you are off duty. As far as getting WC to pay...... I think you have to be off at least 5 days for WC or short term disability to kick in. Contact your union hall and talk to them, they will be able to answer your questions or point you in the right direction. Actually, your union hall may be the place to get a referral for an attorney. You are not the first UPSer to get bit and the union does refer lawyers.... Good luck to you. A driver in my center was bit a number of years ago, he was off work for a couple of weeks, had 30-40 stitches in his leg, etc. He got $50,000 from the homeowner whose dog bit him. [/QUOTE]
