Good point, Aahz....what the heck *were* you doing on a ladder in TX, anyway?
Somebody told him to go to hell, and he took them literally literally?
Ouch. I can say with confidence that breaking an ankle sucks. Hoping the ligaments are intact. Get well soon.

Running fiber optic cable in overhead racks. A bunch of us came down here to work on a special and somewhat important project. Not my normal area of work, but we were all pitching in where we needed to.
It wasn't even that high of a fall. Just a couple of steps.
LS - Based on the injury, I'm thinking ligaments didn't do too well.
Clearly this is all Facebook's fault.

Eww. Breaking your ankle in Feces just seems that much more of an injury....
As for a few small steps, I tore my ACL and dislocated my knee taking a step backwards at kung fu years ago. Sometimes it just doesn't take much.
How's it feeling?
Still very uncomfortable, particulary when the foot is not "up". Very frustrated
that I can't got back to work yet, even from home. And of course extremely
angry with Facebook.

Up is good....you should have the IGlet rig you a traction get up. No remote work cause....too many good drugs? :-)
Without getting into too many details, I believe there is some issue with
regard to me performing any type of "work" and receiving any type of compensation
on our workers comp insurance at the same time.

I don't know how NY worker's comp works, but in IN, you can be receiving medical treatment, paid for by the company's WC plan, and still work and earn your regular pay, if the doctors have indicated that you can work.
But, in the People's Republic of NY, things may be different.
I've made workers comp claims in NY - just related to carpal tunnel. There was no issue with continuing to work.
He is milking the system....
I knew it!

Now that I have written permission from a doctor, that's what I'm doing.
I got a note from the doc that says I can't drive to work or use public transportation, but I can work from home and/or be driven to an office. WC is absorbing my medical expenses.
It's good for me to be doing a bit of work again.
