Narrative

The employee isn't quite sure when it happened, but he believes that while he was hanging high voltage cable he strained his shoulder. He didn't feel any pain at the time, but the next day it was painful. He ""mentioned"" it to his supervisor, however a formal report was not made until 12/01/2006.
