Tess--Wow. So beautiful. Did you sneak into my house at three in the morning

Sunday and look right into my heart? Only I could never put it into words like

that. I'm printing this up for my fridge

How true your words are . I find myself too busy at times or not

feeling good enough to set to answer all the emails but in my heart everyone is

in my prayers. I think of each one of the group as I lay in bed and recall each

other. I do find myself saving emails and thinking I will email this person to

let them know they are not alone but then a week goes by and I passed the

oppertunity to let them know I am with them. So really a big thank you for each

one of you in group and God bless you all. Zoella

Hats off to you for being a laborer. My brother works for a large construction

co. and is a bricklayer by trade. His co. is doing very well in this economy

because they build hospitals, schools and prisons. All things we will ALWAYS

have need for. He is the " boss " of the job and most laborers he hires are GONE

by the first coffee break. Some make it to " lunch " . Few last a day, fewer last a

week. Most can not get off the couch the next morning.

There are other things you can do. You obviously have a huge work ethic. Are you

in a union? Collecting workingman's comp is not always fair or as simple as it

should be. It won't be easy. And there will be people trying to trip you up or

take a pic of you, doing things you say you can not.

Paint? I know it is hard to find someone around here to come into a job site,

clean, and paint the walls. Gosh I love to paint. Houses, fences. Lots of things

you can do. Most anybody would love to find someone like you who knows how to

work, even if you can't fling 100 lbs of stuff around right now. There is always

something.

TO ALL

THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR REPLYS,I REALLY DO APPRECIATE IT.

MY CONCERN IS MY FUTURE AS A LABORER,I'M 42 YEARS OLD AND HAVE BEEN A LABORER

ALL MY LIFE. I HAVE KIDS TO TAKE CARE OF ONE 16 ONE 7 AND ONE 2 YEARS OF AGE.

I'VE TALKED TO SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT HAVE SAID THAT I WOULDN'T BE THE SAME, IS

THIS TRUE? AND IF SO THEN I'M GOING TO HAVE TO FIND A DIFFERENT LINE OF WORK OF

WHICH I HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT WHAT I WOULD DO.

I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE MORE BACKGROUND ON WHAT HAPPENED

I THOUGHT I NEEDED THIS PRODUCT FOR WORK SO I DROVE ABOUT 30 MINS TO THIS

PLACE WHERE MY COMPANY HAS A CONTRACT WITH. I COULDN'T BACK UP TO THE DOCK FULLY

BECAUSE I WAS DRIVING A VAN THAT HAS 1 DOOR WHICH OPENS TO ONE SIDE, EVEN IF I

WAS TO OPEN IT FIRST I STILL COULDN'T HAVE BACKED IT UP BECAUSE OF A PILLAR THE

HAVE OFF TO THAT SIDE. I TOLD THE GUY WORKING THERE ABOUT IT AND ASKED HIM HOW

WE WERE GOING TO LOAD THEM, HE STARED AT ME A FEW SECONDS AND GRABBED ONE BARREL

OFF THE DOCK SO I GRABBED ONE WHICH LED TO THE ACCIDENT. AFTERWARD I TOLD HIM I

WAS HURT AND THAT I HEARD A POP IN MY BACK AND WAS HAVING SPASMS. HIS RESPONSE

WAS I DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING BUT IF YOU HEARD IT YOUR GOING TO BE REALLY SORE

TOMORROW. THE MAN HAD NO COMPASSION AT ALL. THEN I CALLED MY WORK AND THEY

BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT I COULDN'T GO TO THE HOSPITAL WITHOUT PAPERWORK SO I

DROVE BACK TO WORK PROBABLY 40 MINS BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC TO GET THE PAPERS AND

DROVE MYSELF ANOTHER 20 MINS TO THE HOSPITAL. ANYWAY DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS

OF WHAT I SHOULD DO? SHOULD I START LOOKING INTO A NEW CAREER OR DO YOU THINK

I'LL HEAL ENOUGH TO CONTINUE WHAT I'M DOING. SHOULD I TAKE ACTION AGAINST THIS

OTHER COMPANY? ANY INFORMATION THAT YOU CAN SUPPLY WOULD REALLY BE APPRECIATED.

THANK YOU, I WISH THE BEST TO ALL OF YOU.

I am definitely no professional, attorney, doc...but if it was me I would most

definitely be looking out for my self. I was hurt and tried to retrain to get

back into the work force, and it seemed everything I tried was futile. I am now

on full disability, barely able to walk through a store. Getting hurt changed my

life completely, I am in constant pain, and will be the rest of my life. My

advice to anyone who will listen, is to be very careful with you back. You screw

the pooch and your life will change drastically.
