What happened

On [REDACTED] at approximately [REDACTED] a city carrier employee told me he hurt his back when he was picking up a tub of flat which only had 3-6 pieces in it.

Other supervisor that was walking behind him the whole time saw him walk to my desk walking normal Once he came to my desk he started bending over saying his back was hurting. Supervisor told him I was watching you the whole time I didn 't see you hurt your back. I said 'I also was watching you the whole time and I also didn 't see him hurt his back while lifting 3-6 pieces of flats.
