Damn dude....I honestly dont know what to say. Are you afraid they might try to fire you for taking off? Can they?

No... thats really one of the least of my concerns, because I have about 400 hours of paid LEAVE time, that I am "pre approved" to use.....

[BLK95-Z]

Thats good. Can you still take off those days even if your chief doesnt give you the ok? I mean its their doctor right?

What sucks is that because the insurance company is looking out to save their wallet, it's costing you YOUR aquired leave time that's supposed to be for vacation or personal days NOT work injuries.

Exactly... the thing I do not understand though, is that when I was light duty.... for the same injury, my treatments were on the clock...now that I am "FULL" duty, I have to go to the same treatments for the same injury on my aaquired time....
And they can say nothing is wrong with me all they want... the insurance company is still paying for my treatments, and my meds.... CONFLICT????

I was referring to the un-answered emails you sent your chief about taking off for the doc. Sorry lol

lol... sorry, I have a hard time reading outside the box... just didnt understand... No, further back in the thread I explained how he sent me a smart ass email when I was first ordered back, but my doctorS didnt agree, that if I cant do it, I have plenty of leave time on the books which "I will approve." SO I dont think that is a worry for now....

Chief,


I just wanted you to know that I am feeling better since getting some rest off my feet, and restarting my medicine.

Unfortunately I will not be in tomorrow (Friday the 21st) due to an appointment for another injection at Performance Spine for my work related injury and I will have to take medication (valium) in preparation.


Thank You,

Soooo, I forgot to update something interesting... and again, I put this out there, because I have nothing to hide.

A good friend of mine, in the same line of work as me is friends with a Police Officer in another Dept.....

Apparently, a cop from that other department saw me hanging out at KNOPPS PERFORMANCE, the garage where we built my

car, and my hangout..... That cop made a sarcastic (ball busting) comment, that went something like, "look at Hanna ,

outta work and down at Knopps pulling motors outta cars..." Well that got back to my Chief.... apparently, my Chief went

to that other police department when the officer that said that was working and confronted him, asking, DID YOU

PERSONALLY SEE LARRY HANNA MOVING ENGINES WHILE HE IS OUT OF WORK? , The Officer looked at him and said "no, I

did see him there, but he was just hanging out like he always does."


Apparently, my Chief's facial expression went from giddy to SOMEONE JUST RAN OVER MY DOG.....
