Well, thats enough fun for me
What don't you get? They can't make you work! However they can stop paying you if you don't! Now it's up to you to chose! Work and get paid or don't work and don't get paid! Was that clear enough?
Wow - what a thoughtful answer. Just packed with useful information. I'm sure you are very impressed with yourself.
I have never understood why forums in general are such a favorite hangout of flamers like you; no intent to help, just to abuse. Of course you don't get paid if yo don't work (well, we all know there are plenty who get paid for not working). May you have never been in a situation where you have to work for $8/hour or live in your car. Maybe someday you will and you'll understand. That's life for a lot of middle-aged people these days (we used to be _much_ better off).
All I was trying to find out is if SC Workers Comp law allows an employer to compel an injured worker to simply numb pain and return to work or lose benefits. Instead I get condescending remarks (except for the Tranquility's reply about the subjectivity of pain, which is a good point) about, "You have a choice." Bull. If you don't know the answer to this simple question, just say so or don't reply. That's fine, but secure the flame thrower, OK?
