emo Back to work

Yes I am back to work, And I\'m on lite duty. I still work on the trucks but I have a coworker that keeps a good eye on me and will not let me do anything that might hurt me. And we work really well together. I also have a new superviser that understands and lets me work at my own pace.

Re:Back to work

That\'s good to hear that they are being supportive of your recent problems with your neck and surgery. Even though you can\'t do as much physically, you\'re still a valuable resource to them because you can teach and train some of the less experienced and new guys. Hard to find a really good diesel mechanic!

Re:Back to work

Good deal! Back to work is a good thing. :) Eventually, getting into the groove of the new normal....

Great to hear you have the support at work! That makes a world of difference. I was pretty nervous about them even knowing at first but I was overwhelmed by the response and support from work.

Re:Back to work

That sounds great! Getting on with life is what it is all about!
I know that my wife went to the dealership to explain my progress to \"the guys\" and was floored by response. I was welcomed back by my tough \"car guys\" as though I was a returning Vet.

Although they didn\'t cut me any verbal slack, I could tell they were giving me a break.

It\'s nice to see that your \"truck Guys\" are doing the same.
