Dang .. they won't pay
That's a drag. Hey look at it this way you will be a lot healthier and will soon be able to pick and choose your job offerings. I wouldn't want to work for a place that wouldnt pay short term disability. I gotta say to you also I think you may have met my sister last week at Mercy Capitol. She told me she met a really funny gal there that was having surgery the day after her and mentioned that she didn't think her job was going to pay the st disability. What a coincidence. Maybe we'll be able to meet. Good luck on your surgery.
