Injured at work (what to do with my free time)

Sign in to disble this ad
So I got injured helping a customer at work the other day. The customer offered to give a helping hand moving the crap he just bought (how sweet, am I right?) and dropped it backwards onto me, pulling out my shoulder and back since I tried to stop a couch from crushing my beautiful mug.

So now I'm temporarily off work, with another follow-up visit come next week, I've got nothing to do until that sweet workman's comp kicks in.

What should I do with my time? Pr0n is a useless suggestion since with all the free time I'll have I'll get friction burns.

Get into a new game? I prefer Halo 3 on XBL or RuneScape if you want a computer game. Both very addicting and can occupy A LOT of your free time. Pick up a new hobby such as building intricate jigsaw puzzles? Catch up on movies/tv shows?

I wish I could sue. Unfortunately, due to company policy he's free from liability and my job is picking up all the medical bills and such, as well as giving me workman's comp.

So far, this is my third day home, and a bass is just too heavy for my poor shoulder. I'm going insane.

I could play acoustic geetar though.

So far I built a model airplane.

Whooshing noises get old...
