The opinion

Judge Webb

dissenting.

I dissent. G.S. 97-2(5) says the plaintiffs compensation is to be based on the weekly wage he was earning “as of the date of the injury.” The plaintiff was not earning anything at Roadway Express on the date of the injury. I do not believe his compensation can be calculated on his former wage at Roadway Express.
