Is this an insurance thing in the USA? Like is it dependent on your policy to be able to be disabled on full pay?

Open a thin blue line flag shop but use ink that washes out in a rain or two and bleaches out after a month in the sun. Charge $40/flag and claim you give money to some non-existent police affiliated charity. Close the LLC after a month, open one with a slightly different name, claim improved product but ship out the same garbage. Repeat until the state stops letting you form LLCs.

no the BBB scam is i rate whether a business is sufficiently pro-cop and if they don't pay their $1000/month membership fee i say they are an antifa store

That's why you get a "head injury".

Years ago when I was at a different job there was a guy who got in trouble and part of his "punishment" was to have to go help unload a truck of boxes by hand. He immediately hit himself in the head with one (small scratch on the forehead too) and made them call an ambulance for him.

He turned that bump into 100% disability and will never have to work again.

And I found out that with a head injury they can't prove/disprove poo poo.

if you're injured on the job your employer is supposed to pay for your medical care to recover from the injury and any lost wages ("workers compensation"). most businesses buy insurance for it. employers also will try and sue in court by claiming the worker is faking the injury, intentionally injured themself, etc to get out of paying or making their rates go up

Maybe it used to be different but I think it’s pretty tough to fake an injury for disability payouts these days. Insurance companies are going to do their damndest to deny your claim even when it’s completely legitimate and all the “just faking it for fraud” poo poo that everyone believes is rampant means they can usually justify being super assholey about it

I saw that they racked up like $3 million in claims or something

and then I was like "is that three million actual dollars worth of claims or is that like seven MRIs at the pre-insurance rates"

and then I did not ever bother to find out

Yeah they will straight up hire private investigators to spy on you 24/7 to get evidence that you're not really disabled or whatever. And evidence of "faking it" can be stuff like "went outside and looked happy"

Wrong! My disability lawyer wanted me to delete all my social media; I compromised by changing my primary pseudonym (this isn't it.) People have definitely lost disability for looking too happy on their social media.

My brother is in labor law and he heard from a colleague that if you sue your employer for giving you covid, they'll scrounge your social media

Any recent photo of you in public in the state of Florida is grounds for immediate dismissal. If you go there, the lawyer can argue you don't give a poo poo about getting covid

Arbitration is cheaper then going to court and doesn’t have the (at least on paper) legal safe guards that the court system has.

If your involved in an arbitration against your employer and the arbiter is hired by your workplace, then lol

The funny thing about arbitration is that some corporations just think it's a cheat code for winning cases and forget to do all the corruption around it. I used to work for a company that banned arbitration agreements in contracts (even for vendors which made buying $15 SaaS tools impossible) because they'd ripped off a licensor in the past and he won in arbitration. They couldn't believe they lost even though we had way, way more money than the guy who sued us.

seriously, 1 week notice max unless youve been there for years and years and you love them. Telling an employer that you plan to quit in two weeks is basically loading a gun and handing it to your enemy

If I don't give one month notice (if I'd worked here less than 5 years, it would be 14 days), the employer doesn't have to pay me for unused vacation days.

Yeah it's similar in Spain. You have to give two weeks or you lose part of the settlement you get when leaving (which includes unpaid vacation or working days).
