re: Is workers comp difficult to deal with?

WC covers lost wages, and medical bills. Many companies continue to pay salary or wages, in an effort to keep their costs down on future premiums. The carrier pays just the med bills. The claim is handled as a MED only, to keep their EMOD smaller.
This is better for your wife. Her take home should be a bit higher than the 66 2/3 of gross wages.
For those stating they are making her take PTO until it runs out, that’s illegal. She needs to make sure it’s her normal paycheck, not PTO. WC precludes an employee from losing their PTO in lieu of pay. The state prohibits it.
Later, if it drags on, they can convert it to lost time and WC will then pick up weekly payments and company will stop paying salary.
ETA: 95% of every response in this claim is completely false. The one just above mine made me audibly lol.

It’s hard for me to understand why we haven’t come up with effective anti drone technology. It would seem with the advances made in technology over the last decade, we don’t already have something that would knock every drone out of the air. I admittedly know little about drone technology. But damn, seems like we could figure out a defense against them.
I’ll take what you’re giving.

Didn’t just talk shite. Jerked off at our bench.
Terry Kath is the most underrated guitar player of this generation. He was the heart, soul, and talent of Chicago when they first formed, and most people don’t realize they rocked their arse off.
But once they got the love ballad hit that Pete Cetera wrote, the record company said MOAR!! The band went soft and eventually gay. When Kath died, rock Chicago died. But back in the day, with Cetera on bass, they rocked. Listen to the guitar solo on 25 or 6 to 4. Jimi Hendrix said Kath was a better guitarist than him…

IIRC the only time they showed him pouring the Rx into the bloody Mary can was before Clark showed up.
Agreed. I just thought it's possible that after he saw the kid, they don't show it, but you could assume he possibly went back and poured the remainder of the bottle in the can to commit suicide.
Definitely wasn't clear. Just possible they expected the viewer to assume that jump.
Or that he didn't plan to drink the entire can until after he saw the kid.
ETA: The most uncomfortable scene in the history of film was the two of them in their underwear, dancing with each other. And talking about getting hard.
It was so bad I could barely watch it, lol. I thought for sure Bateman's underwear was going to protrude when he sat down and I was about to turn it off.

But why would you ever put a lethal amount of meds in the drink if the goal is simply to get hard?
Maybe he didn't put the lethal amount in until after the kid saw him? I seem to remember Clark asking Floyd if he made sure to use the right amount, right when he got there.
Or, he didn't plan to drink it all, just sip enough until the boner popped. But when everything went down, he just gulped it all down.
I can’t deal with another game like yesterday. I’m ready for the offense to explode. And the infield to play without error.

Had a similar experience with my oldest stepson. Coached him in sports, etc., but never any real connection.
One weekend, took him to NOLA and we spent day at WWII museum. I always loved WWII history. He loved it. We went to dinner after and just hung out.
We bonded, strangely like a wall was knocked down, and to this day, share a love of all things WWII. But more than that, we’ve become super close. And that was 25 years ago.

Happy Good Friday to you Cats. I believe.
My 2 cents. The Bible says that God created time. As such, he is outside of time. He was before time, that's why nothing created God.
Our human brains can't comprehend that thought. So I think when we go to heaven, there will no longer be any concept of time. It's eternity. So we will recognize each other, but our bodies and spirits will be outside of time. Hence, no age.
*Note - This is strictly an opinion I have, formed based on early passages in the Bible.
