[QUOTE="overallowed, post: 402115, member: 5739"] I am sorry to hear of everybodys problems, but I tore my rotator cuff 2 1/2 years ago at age 53 and I was treated very well by the company. They were going to give me a warning letter for not using a hand rail, as I fell down outside on icy stairs. They went to take pictures and discovered there was no hand rail, and not another word was said about a letter. UPS sent me to a very good doctor 200 miles away from home ($.33 per mile). I had a successful surgery. I went to the doctor often enough for follow-ups I was able to see 4 Major League Baseball games and was lucky enough to get free tickets 3 times. I was off work 7 months. I had a great time. Doctor wrote on limitation not to lift anything heavy over shoulder height (failed to define "heavy", told me to use my judgement). Within 1 year of returning to work, I was given a new P1000 with power steering and automatic transmission. I never run stratch. They don't bother me much. I just do my thing and try to fly under the radar. [/QUOTE]
