Objection withdrawn

This last weekend while attended a meeting of the Executive Committee of the Workers’ Compensation Section of the State Bar of California I referred to myself as a workers’ compensation nerd.  ((Can you believe someone already owns WCExec.com???  What a perfect domain name for the workers’ compensation executive committee!)) ((I kid because I love!))

Some very kind, but ultimately uninformed, person assured me that I was not a nerd after all.  ((Glasses notwithstanding.))  ((Photo courtesy of this person.))  Let’s step back for a minute and examine the facts.  At that very moment I was:

• Taking a few days off work to attend a meeting about workers’ compensation ((Without MCLE in sight!))
• Inside a conference room with about twenty other workers’ compensation attorneys
• Awake at 8:30 AM on a Friday morning pontificating about Ogilvie math
• Sitting in front of my laptop, typing about workers’ compensation
• Making notes in my blog about workers’ compensation

Clearly, we need to have a heart-to-heart about “substantial evidence.”

Well, last night I received an e-mail stating that they had seen this website and offered this retraction:

“I must actually withdraw my objection to your calling yourself a workers’ comp nerd.”

They must have seen my walk through posts.
