Since I have been here we have apprehended alien's diagnosed with avian flu, influenza A, influenza B, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, legionnaire's disease, lice, scabies, chickenpox, shingles, tuberculosis, bronchitis, pink eye, HIV, flesh eating bacteria...just to name a few. I've seen stories online about other parts of Texas with records of aliens with measles & mumps as well, but I have not personally seen them yet where I am. Best part of this sh#tshow is that many agents that have filed CA-1's & CA-2's are getting raked across the coals by DOL & scrutinized to no end to determine if they are "eligible for benefits." I've already personally had to make a written statement to the DOL regarding a situation where one of my guys was sick on his days off, fainted in his hotel room bathroom, cracked his head open on the way down, woke up in a pool of his own blood, had to go to the emergency room, got stitched up, was diagnosed with a severe upper respiratory infection & was admitted at a local hospital where he was flooded with antibiotics. Still waiting to hear about the outcome of that one from the DOL. I had walking pneumonia for 3 weeks, finally kicked it for about a week, am already coming down with another respiratory infection as I type this & will be seeing a doctor tomorrow morning. If you come down here, you WILL get sick. Most detailed agents since I've been here call in sick at least one to four times during a 30-day temporary detail. I've only called in sick once, because every time it has hit me really hard has been on my Friday & I just spend my days off in my hotel room in a NyQuil induced coma trying to fight off the funk.
Saw this post on a message board. It seems pretty credible to me.
CA-1 & CA-2 = forms for LOD injury for feds
The avalanche has already started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote.
