He hobbled back to the campground and on Thursday morning his foot was twice the size and he couldn't put weight on it or move the ankle. After a visit to the local urgent care he called in sick. He couldn't fly the airplane out of Oshkosh due to the injury so he stayed until Sunday to give it some time to heal. During the day on Friday he received a voicemail which he didn't see until after office hours from the CPO assistant. He called back on Monday and the assistant was irate and the conversation ended with a GFB. He emailed the form to the urgent care physician who was not an MD and they took a few weeks to fill out the form and mail it back with an original signature. I don't think he ever did get paid for the trip and I have no idea if the company accepted the form. I don't think there was any punishment either.
