Re: Quitting my job for poker was a great idea
[ QUOTE ]
I had a friend that delivered for PJ and he ran into a pedestrian which if memory serves correctly (LONG time ago) he was just off the clock. Anyways, the management/company was willing to say he was on the clock so that he didn't get in as much insurance trouble.

Poker Addict: You can (and should) sue the person who hit you. Workers' comp. is only a remedy from your employer. The person who hit you is a third-party. If your back is legitimately hurt and especially if you have been treating, you will have a good claim. However, you may have a statute of limitations problem (in California, it is not 2 years for personal injury claims).
You can still seek recovery from your employer as well.
I think you are making a mistake by not pursuing this.
