Im going on "Short Term Disability", having surgery, not a work related injury. I found out to my surprise, that for an hourly XPO employee, short term disability won't start for thirty days! OUCH!! In the past, it was always 14 days, including weekends. So in the past, I used 10 days PTO, and with weekends, that was 14. Now I don't have 20 "PTO" days banked, so I will have to eat about 5 days pay, and being out of work, that makes a difference. I did purchase the STD bump up to 70% of pay, when we chose our benefits for this year. So I just wanted to put this out here, for anyone who might be in this predicament, like myself. Work safe, you only have one body, and believe me, it will ware out doing this kind of work. Be careful, and have a great weekend!
