Ever get hurt at work? How'd it end up for you? (lemmy.world)

I got hurt kinda badly on the job a few weeks back and so far the process has been agonizing between a RN that didn't believe I was in pain, an employer that seems to be laying groundwork for firing me a and a worker's comp insurance company that is more than a little loose with the timing of their payments. The whole thing has me pretty anxious, unable to do most things I enjoy and in a whole boatload of pain.

Anyone had an experience with an on-the-job injury? How'd it go? Any tales of full healing and victory over disability to brighten my outlook?

I've almost gotten run over several times, maybe because the same drivers who flip if so much as a scratch is on their vehicle don't understand the rules about pedestrian safety. They yield for me when I'm walking my friend's pet skunk though.
