Most people affected with TM at one time or another were WORKERS.

I think this type of posting is the BEST. It should and will get most
TM's and those around them thinking "It happened to me and others are
now taking notice".

I completely disagree with the workers comp approach, but them again I
disagree with anyone getting something for nothing.
TM job related... come on it seems like a stretch to me...but I know "It
could happen".

Hope you continue to post and do find out more about TM but do it to
help all affected and not to blame something or someone.
