HELLO,
THIS IS TERRI PARTIDA FROM VICTORIA. I WAS WRITING TONIGHT BECAUSE I HAVE A PRAYER REQUEST. I DRIVE THE MEDICAL BUS HERE IN VICTORIA. I REALLY DO LIKE MY JOB, EXCEPT FOR THE EVERY 6 MONTH ROTATION. I UNDERSTAND WHY THE ROTATION BUT I JUST DON’T CARE FOR IT. ANYWAY, WHEN I WAS DRIVING BUS 1710 THERE WAS PROBLEM WITH THE DOORS. THAT BUS HAS A MAUAL DOOR, MEANING I HAVE TO PUSH IT OPEN LIKE THE OLDER SCHOOL BUSES. THE NEW BUSES THE COMPANY HAS NOW HAVE ELECTRONIC DOORS. ANYWAY, I HAD TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOORS MANUALLY FOR 7 HOURS A DAY AND 5 DAYS A WEEK FOR 6 MONTHS. WELL, I STRAINED MY SHOULDER OR HURT MY SHOULDER. I WOULD TELL THE SAFETY DIRECTOR THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DOORS AND SHE WOULD BLOW ME OFF. I TOLD MY SUPERVISOR AND SHE WOULD BLOW ME OFF SAYING THAT THE GIRL WHO DROVE BUS 1710 BEFORE ME NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. ACTUALLY THE GIRL DROVE THE BUS ABOUT 2 WEEKS BEFORE SOMEONE WRECKED THAT SAME BUS, SO THE GIRL NEVER ACTUALLY USED THE BUS. SHE GOT THE BUS BACK A WEEK BEFORE I TOOK IT OVER. I TOLD THE HEAD MECHANIC THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DOORS AND HE WOULD TELL ME THAT HE WOULD GET SOMEONE ON IT BUT NEVER DID. SO I JUST DID MY JOB. ONE DAY THE MAN THAT TAKES CLIENTS ON OUT OF TOWN RUNS HAD TO USE BUS 1710 AND AS SOON AS HE SAW ME HE SAID “GIRL, I WILL NEVER EVER MAKE YOU MAD! ANYONE WHO CAN OPEN AND CLOSE THAT DOOR FOR THAT AMOUNT OF TIME HAS GOT TO HAVE STRENGTH IN THAT ARM†HE TOLD THE SUPERVISOR THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND THEY JUST NEVER PUT HIM IN THAT BUS AGAIN. THE SAFETY DIRECTOR HAD TO USE BUS 1710 ONE DAY BECAUSE A CLIENT GOT LEFT BEHIND AND SO SHE HAD TO GO. SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE BELIEVED ME THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM BECAUSE SHE WAS HURTING. AND A DISPATCHER HAD TO USE BUS 1710 ONCE BECAUSE IT IS A SMALL BUS AND IS THE ONLY BUS THAT CAN GO IN THIS ONE CLIENTS YARD, AND SHE SAID SHE WAS HURTING FROM THE ONE TIME USE OF BUS 1710.
ANYWAY, I HAD HAD ENOUGH AND THE COMPANY SENT ME TO THE COMPANY DOCTOR, AND HE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY SHOULDER BUT HERE ARE SOME PILLS AND HERE IS SOME PHYSICAL THERAPY. THE COMPANY SAID I HAD TO GO ON WORKERS COMP TILL I GET BETTER OR RELEASED FROM DOCTOR CARE.
THE COMPANY FORCED ME TO USE UP MY VACATION HOURS/TIME BEFORE WORKERS COMP KICKS IN. BUT THAT IS NOT HOW WORKERS COMP IS SUPPOSED TO WORK. MY CASEWORKER FROM WORKERS COMP SAID THE COMPANY IS NOT DENYING MY CLAIM BECAUSE THEY KNOW AND KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM. BUT STILL THE COMPANY FORCED ME TO USE UP MY TIME. THAT TIME I WAS SAVING FOR WHEN I WENT ON VACATION TO HAVE THE GASTRIC BYPASS SURGERY FOR WEIGHT LOSS. I MEET WITH THE SURGEON ON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON TO FIND OUT IF I AM GOING TO HAVE SURGERY NOVEMBER 1ST. BUT NOW I HAVE NO VACATION BECAUSE THE COMPANY MADE ME USE IT BECAUSE I HURT MYSELF AT WORK WITH THEIR BUS.
THE DOCTOR FINALLY AGREED LAST WEDNESDAY THAT I COULD HAVE AN MRI OF MY SHOULDER AND I HAD THAT PROCEDURE DONE FRIDAY THE 8TH AND THE COMPANY DOCTOR CALLED TODAY SAYING THE DOCTOR WANTS ME IN THE OFFICE TOMORROW TUESDAY OCTOBER 12. I AM ASKING FOR PRAYER FOR FAVOR WITH THE COMPANY DOCTOR. I AM NOT READY TO GO BACK TO WORK, I DO ENJOY RIDING AROUND IN THE BUSES AND GETTING PAID FOR RIDING AROUND BUT RIGHT NOW I JUST WANT TO HEAL MY SHOULDER AT HOME. I WANT WORKERS COMP TO PAY MY SALARY TILL I GET BACK TO WORK BECAUSE MY CASE WORKER TOLD ME THE COMPANY ADMITTED TO HER THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR THEY JUST DIDN’T WANT TO BELIEVE ME. IF THE COMPANY DOCTOR DOESN’T KNOW HOW TO READ THE MRI RESULTS THEN I PRAY THAT SOMEONE ELSE INTERCEPTS THE RESULTS. ROY MY HUSBAND FELL OFF HIS TRUCK AND HURT HIS TAILBONE AND THE SAME COMPANY DOCTOR FINALLY AGREED TO AN MRI FOR ROY AND 2 OTHER DOCTORS READ THE RESULTS SAYING ROY HAS SOME DAMAGE BUT THE COMPANY DOCTOR HAS THE FINAL SAY SO AND HE SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH ROY , AND IM A LITTLE AFRAID THAT THE COMPANY DOCTOR IS GONNA TRY TO DO THE SAME WITH ME. ROY WORKS FOR ENTERPRISE TRANSPOTATION AND I WORK FOR VICTORIA TRANSIT BUT IT’S THE SAME DOCTOR. WHEN I TALK TO MY PASTOR WE BOTH CALL DR STARKEY WE CALL HIM DR QUACK. IM SORRY I MADE THIS LETTER SO LONG BUT I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW THE ALL THE FACTS. I ASK FOR PRAYER FOR FAVOR FOR ME TOMORROW WHEN I GO TO DR STARKEY OFFICE FOR THE RESULTS OF THE MRI AND ALSO I PRAY I FOR PHYSICAL THERAPY. IT HELPS ME A LOT BUT AGAIN DR QUACK WANTS ME BACK AT WORK INSTEAD. ALSO, THE PHYSICAL THERAPIST SAYS THAT TO HIM I HAVE A TORN ROTATOR CUFF ON MY SHOULDER BUT DR QUACK SAYS I STRAINED MY DELTOID MUSCLE ON MY SHOULDER. DR QUACK STILL STANDS BY THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY SHOULDER BUT THEN HE SAYS GO BACK TO WORK BUT HERE ARE PILLS.! PLEASE AGREE WITH ME IN PRAYER FOR FAVOR FOR ME WITH DR STARKEY.
