So today i get back to the house after bumpin the system for 30 mins straight from the job site...
and what i find is a check in the mail...
now let get to the beginning...
roughly 2 weeks ago i cut my finger and my tendon.... Got 4 stitches (2 overlapping the other 2) on the tendon and 5 on the outter skin of the finger...
so i called the boss and told him and he told me to go to immediate care (shoulda went to community), so i get there and he decides to not put it under workman's comp and pay cash/credit for the whole thing unless I have to go to a hand specialist. So I didnt have to go to the specialist and my boss pays for the bill which was only $450. Last thursday I went in and had a checkup(which was free ofc) and had the stitches removed.
Now back to the check...
It seems to be a refund addressed to me but from the immediate care clinic...
now my boss paid for my stitches and stuff, but if i would have went to the hand specialist it could have been a lot more...
now im wondering if i should keep the check and not tell my boss or should i just keep it and hope that i dont have any defections from having to work with 1 index finger short for the next month. ATM i feel that i should tell my boss, but then on the other hand i feel that he shouldnt know and i should keep it for lost wages for the days i had to miss and the upcomming ones.. BTW ive been with the company for 2 years and yet to have a raise. Even after 1 year worth of schooling i should be making about 20% more than what i am now...
Let me know what you guys think...
