Narrative

The operator was driving a surface loader and hit a bump, which jostled them. They didn't immediately feel pain and finished the shift, but at the start of shift the following day they reported soreness in their back to their supervisor. They were sent to the hospital, where the doctor wrote them out of work for two days to rest their back muscles.
