MOST DISCOURAGING WORKERS COMPENSATION EVALUATION FOR WORKPLACE INJURY REQUESTED BY EMPLOYERS INSURANCE CARRIER!

1

During the first hour of our meeting, Dr. Allan C. Sidle asked: "Why I was looking to file for workers compensation." Additionally, Dr. Sidle asserted "that there is no money to be made by filing a workers compensation claim.” Dr. Sidle further suggested if "I had considered working from home." Moving on, Dr. Sidle proposed, "Why I did not just quit my employer? If I had witnessed activity that I felt was illegal, dishonest, or inappropriate and made me feel unsafe or uncomfortable, why did I not just quit?" I responded, "That the Job Description for my employer did not indicate abnormal working conditions when I applied. I had no immediate plans to terminate my employment." Furthermore, “ I dropped in performance and passed on my opportunities to other employees, afraid of potential secret shoppers who could be federal agents observing our application process, since the flyers had warned employees of Workplace Raids and Audits at the Federal Governments' request starting January 1st, 2018.” ( AB450) Dr. Sidle’s peculiar line of questioning concerning the abnormal and unusual working conditions at my place of employment and working for Oportun Inc; I had asked Dr. Sidle "What he would do in a situation where he was aware that he had been presented stolen identities, wherewith past employers working in telecommunications and offering services similar to my current employment, I had never been subjected to that type of activity or environment. Dr. Sidle responded "that in the past, he too has had clients who have filed for workers compensation using social security numbers that belonged to another individual."In short, Dr. Sidle continued 'that he wouldn't report them, because he was not above the law and that his clients could be represented by an attorney should they wish to sue.” On the subject of meeting our monthly goals and explaining to Dr. Sidle that I had been subjected to miscommunication by both management and employees; Dr. Sidle asked "If I had felt that at times employees could tell customers when to come in or when not to come in depending on my work schedule." I replied, "Yes." Dr. Sidle clarified that,”It was common for employees that were Foreign-Born Mexican Nationals to be harassed or discriminated against by Mexican-Americans in the workplace.” I replied that,”I felt the same; however, I was born in the US, and with previous employers, my place of birth had never made me feel less than other employees.” Dr. Allan C. Sidle reassured me that he understood many of the points I made, due to familiarity with "Mexican Culture." Dr. Sidle momentarily brushed on the subject of "Mexican Superstitions and Mexican Witchcraft” and reflected on playing a part in an "Exorcism" with the Catholic Church some time ago. Requesting factual corrections to be made to Dr. Allan Sidles QME Report completed November 28, 2019, I drafted the following corrections: 1. I had planned to work for my employer helping "Latinos" for a year to gain experience giving loans and then apply at a mainstream bank." This was incorrect. A. I had been looking for employment in different areas, since applicants were required to speak both English and Spanish as well as have experience in Customer Service and Sales, I applied for the position. I took two interviews during their job fair with a corporate employee and the first regional manager. B. I had shown no desire to change employers. I had begun the application process for the store-lead position, a new position that became available in February or March in 2018 after a co-worker and executive employee in the Payroll Department had encouraged me to apply. 2. "He has stated he had not worked since 4/4/18, the date of injury at Oportun Inc." This was incorrect. A. The date of injury was not 4/4/18. April 4, 2018, is when I no felt I could no longer return to work due to "abnormal working conditions, a combination of the ongoing treatment I had been receiving by employees, management and the circumstances surrounding my employment." B. I had reached out to the Regional Manager about my concerns. The regional manager answered via email, "That I do the best that I can." C. I communicated to Dr. Allan C. Sidle many times, ”I don't share any information on the activities surrounding my workplace inside and out or my daily activities following my leave due to the embarrassment and circumstances surrounding my employment and the way my employer had chosen to respond to my concerns. It was very clear that I was not welcomed returning to work. 3. ”One day, when his car wouldn't start, he actually got into a car accident, he was so anxious." This was incorrect. A. I explained to Dr. Sidle that anxiety manifested itself when my vehicle had been vandalized, after a co-worker had mentioned that ”It was likely that the individuals who patrol the parking lot on a daily basis, tampered with my car battery to open the windows and make an attempt steal my recently purchased car equipment. B. Dr. Allan C. Sidle asked, "Why I just couldn't take the bus to work if I was afraid of my vehicle being vandalized at my place of employment?” I responded that "Other options such as walking or taking the bus to work presented the same if not more risks in an area that has a reasonably high crime rate," where I specified that the time I normally left work was around 7 pm. 4. ”He said his first audit was positive." This is incorrect. A. I reported to Dr. Sidle that "my very first audit experience with Oportun was extremely negative." The District Manager, David Flores, had ordered me to "wait in my car" during my first store audit and "not to come back to the store until he instructed me to." B. Having The First Regional Manager ask me to wait in my car starting my shift during a company audit made me "feel very insecure about how my employer viewed me as a new employee without giving me any explanation.,” C. The embarrassment and circumstances surrounding my employer, has made it extremely difficult to discuss personal information with any individual who asks about my work status and daily activities." Furthermore, I commented to Dr. Allan C. Sidle that it was not an ideal "Icebreaker" in conversation. D. Every so often he would look at the clock and count the hours ( Paid 220.00+ per hr by insurance carrier), where he also commented that "When I see a Psychiatrist in the future, not to expect to have 4 hour visits each time." I found this to be very offensive. E. Dr. Sidle questioned me about my "Political Affiliation", since I had mentioned to him that I became very interested in Politics following my leave of absence from my employer. He added, that if I was aware that "contributions" were made to the behalf of buisnesses or employers. F. Dr. Allan Sidles QME report stated that "He had no assistance" writing his QME report under penalty of perjury. Dr. Sidle later commented via voicemail, that although he has a "typing specialist" that my information remained confidential and that I should not worry. However, this disclosure was made 3 months later and not prior to being evaluated. F. Dr. Allan C. Sidle had asked me to file his QME report. I responded, I didn't think it would be a good idea for me to submit his QME Report since I'm aware that late ( 60+ days) QME reports are subject to non-payment and certain disqualifications. There was no petition or application filed to support a late QME filed within the workers compensation appeals board.
