Advice/Suggestions Needed

This morning about 7:30 I let the cat out and let her roam. She's still out & they haven't said anything about it.

I'm having a real difficult time working here. I can't just quit either. At least while I have been here, I know the animals I'm responsible for are being taken care of.

They used to have a lot of business. But now they are lucky to have 2 surgeries & 2 dentals a week and 3-5 appointments a day for 3 days a week. My hours are m-w-f 7:30-12:30 and tue& th 7:30-5:30. Most of my time here is spent doing nothing because I can do my job in about 2 hrs and then I'm done. I'm supposed to stay busy during off time. I've been here for just over a month and I've cleaned this place top to bottom and it still looks and smells like poo. I guess after years of neglect this place really needs bulldozed. Oh I didn't even mention the run. The run is an approximately 25×25 fenced in area where the

dogs go use the bathroom. Its so gross! For at least 50 years dogs have been eliminating out there. Its rank, let me tell you!! Can you imagine 50+ years of urine & poo? The poo is scooped but the urine is not.

I still can't get over how he's housing chickens here too. He also has bees.

I think the hardest part for me to deal with is knowing what's happening and feeling so helpless about it.

Whatever you do don't quit.

Keep doing what you're doing, document, document, and document some more. Every little detail will be helpful in your WC case.

And yeah, Lawyer up. There's not much else to do until you do that. Once you are represented then things will start moving faster and in the right direction.

I've done a couple dozen workers comp claims in my time and you have what appears to be a clear case. Good luck!

Oh yeah, one last thing. If they offer you a settlement in the workers comp case, don't take the first 3 offers, no matter what. My WC lawyer told me that they set aside what they can afford to pay, and then offer about 20% of it to start. In the case I was dealing with, they had set aside $85k and the employee settled for $25k.

Even if you are broke you need to contact an attorney, and stat.

Start writing everything you see down.

Also write down everyday what is going on with your hand, how it feels, what you can't do, that you have been denied help in getting to see a doctor, etc. You are talking about a big deal here.
