joessportster Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 Yes I could claim FULL disability, However they claim I am only occupationally disabled, and it requires a 10 year minimum of employment with the railroad in order to claim occupational disability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2K Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I don't know enough about the difference to give any good advice. If you were a Union member I would find out who your local affiliated attorney is and talk to him, if you haven't already. Good luck to you.

ricktate Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Lets us know how things are going. If you need some cash to get you over a hump the guys here I'm sure would all chip in. We have done it before. I never asked for help it never got to bad for me after transplant it was just dealing with the system and frustration. Keep us in the loop. Best of luck.

eth2 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I once heard of a guy who had some time on his hands and needed money and who had over a 1000 digitalized albums. Some guys asked him if they could "borrow" a copy of his albums and sent him a hard drive. Coincidentally they sent him a few hundred dollars to help him out (No connection to the albums).

CECAA850 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Thank you for letting us help Joe. I appreciate it. I have the EXACT same reaction when allowing people to help me. I don't know why that is but I certainly empathize. Remember, "No man is an island". Carl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClaudeJ1 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Joe, I pray for you and your loved ones first. If I could in any way justify these purchases I would In a heartbeat. To anyone who might be viewing this post and may be considering this purchase I can only offer this: I have had the occasion to buy several things ranging from Klipschorns down to DVDs from Joe and have never been disappointed. Numerous transactions have been without any ***** from me what so ever. Good luck to you my friend. Mike ditto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
