A loading dock is a chaotic, dangerous place. On a typical work shift, dozens of semi-trucks come and go, various kinds of material-handling equipment move freight across the floor, and large numbers of employees work in and around the dock. 
To stay safe, you have to be acutely aware of your own actions, as well as the actions of others. Even then, you may be injured. You can fall off the dock, be run over by a truck, be pinned or crushed between a truck and the loading dock, or injure yourself while loading or unloading materials. Loading dock injuries run the gamut, from sprains and fractures, to amputations and crushing's to death.
Medicare Set-Asides in Workers' Compensation and Personal Injury Claims
If you are eligible for Medicare benefits, or soon will be, you have additional considerations when deciding whether to settle a workers' compensation or personal injury claim. In some cases, Medicare will require a sum of money to be set aside to cover your future medical expenses resulting from a work-related injury or a non-work-related injury that resulted from someone's negligence. (Currently, there is no requirement for a set-aside in negligence cases, but that is another discussion for another day.)

You may be eligible for Workers' Compensation Benefits even as an employee of a temporary staffing agency.
Recording a Traffic Stop
In 38 of the 50 states it is plainly allowed to record police, as long as you don't physically interfere with their work. Police might still unfairly harass you or ask you to stop but you will not be charged for illegally recording police.
