[QUOTE="Nathanj7, post: 4144152, member: 77623"] Hello I was employed by UPS as a package handler for almost 3 years. Two years was spent in NM and I had to leave the company for about 4 weeks because I moved to TX and had to re apply and restart my seniority/lose my benefits, however I did about almost 7 months before I injured my back. (of course) I reported my injury and wasn't able to say the exact time and how the injury happened, (first mistake was being honest cause i woke up in pain after work and said that and thought it would get better) so they treated it as an off the job injury and said take the time off and keep them updated.

I had doctors notes to up until February 15th, well the last doctors note didnt send completely or whatever happen to it idk, I guess, and it was for the week of the 15th.
