    Heck yes I would, real men know the Federal Laws like the Disability act and also workman's comp. In fact I'd be hiring a lawyer for mental and physical anguish. image

    I would just cut it off. You don't need a pinky anyway

    You puss, I passed one at a title company and still closed the loan. After passing over 250 I finally gave in and had surgery, doc told me I could destroy my kidney if I didn't have surgery. Drove home the day before the surgery from the hospital with a tube coming out of my back and the bag tied to my leg. Damn cop stopped me in a school zone going 27 in a 20 and then had the nerve to ask me what's the hurry. I lift my shirt and shorts and showed him. Heh he about passed out. Didn't even give a warning after I explained the situation to him.

    Depends, am I a concert pianist? Then yes I need my pinky.

    It depends on what a person does. In general, I'd say one could work with a broken pinky.

    Good for you.

    You people have to remember you have legal issues if it's a work related injury, as petty as the injury sounds. It depends on your Dr's restrictions.

    I got injured at work in April of this year and substained a serious left thumb injury. The next week I had thumb reconstruction surgery which entailed surgery on my left big toe as well. The surgeon put me on no left hand and no left foot for 30 days and a total of 2 and 1/2 months of no left hand work. Because my job requires 2 hand work I was out of work the entire time.

    I'd most likely be off unless there was an open spot for dispatching.

    I need my strong hand for my gun and my weak hand for my OC, etc...

    No, I didn't have to have that operation, although there is a guy that I work with who had that operation. They do that operation you linked because the Dr's say your thumb is the most important part of your hand. I have lots of people I work with who are missing index fingers, middle fingers or small fingers, but no one is missing a thumb....Seriously.

    I actually lost the entire top of my left thumb in a belt sander. I had to have a matrix graft from my left big toe as well as tissue, skin, tendons, etc. I will probably have to have one more operation to get my thumb back to better working order.
