I liked my work (loved my work and tolerated my job, so it evens out to liked) but I do not regret early retirement for one second.<br /><br />I cannot believe that the hole is left unattended to. That seems like clear negligence. I hope your daughter recovers quickly, but I also hope she does the necessary reporting. That should never have happened, and certainly never have happened twice.Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00692441479616299920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2315622674616774363.post-23760459270484265082013-09-23T21:14:19.080-05:002013-09-23T21:14:19.080-05:00Congratulations on Ron getting the job!

I agree with everyone else, your daughter needs to protect herself---you never know how injuries will heal or what long-term issues there will be. The school simply must repair that hole or not allow children and teachers out there until they can!AuntBetsynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2315622674616774363.post-80004632891344207282013-09-23T15:36:42.090-05:002013-09-23T15:36:42.090-05:00Sorry to hear about your daughter's injury.

No matter how strapped it is for funds. I guarantee it would be far less expensive to fill in the dangerous holes than to pay out damages after a lawsuit.

I agree with the other commentors, insurance company and disability - even if she doesn't claim right now it needs to go on file so if there's a problem and she doesn't heal well she's reported it at least. <br /><br />The school needs to fix that hole, but probably are like all schools, so cash-strapped they can barely make payroll. We desperately need to make education a priority!<br /> Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14133236228952504852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2315622674616774363.post-51256274261909667582013-09-23T13:06:05.101-05:002013-09-23T13:06:05.101-05:00Your daughter also needs to file for disability fr...Your daughter also needs to file for disability from this accident. My sister slipped on a French Fry at school, broke her knee and was wheelchair bound for months; she filed for disability from the school since she will always have trouble with the knee. Your daughter's injuries sound even worse! The school is looking at a lawsuit if they don't get the hole fixed!!

Not fair at all. The damage should have been repaired right away after the other injury.<br /><br />Parents (and friends of parents) might want to buy some of this (http://preview.tinyurl.com/qguvckh), arrange for a weekend pizza party and fix the darn thing before something worse than injury happens.<br /><br />You might want to have your daughter contact her health insurance company. They may allow for a scooter or an electric wheelchair since it's so difficult for her to use a manual wheelchair.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
