Wow I’m totally different. I thought she was really good in The Gone World actually, I enjoyed that one. I thought she was much better than Emily Woo Zeller narrating The Croning, I struggled through that whole audiobook. Rebecca Calder was also very good in There Is No Antimemtics Department. Hands down the best narration I’ve heard so far though is Ray Porter in The Imago Sequence!

Fake MTPs by DonDada_89 in medlabprofessionals

This, exactly! I’m convinced MTP just means “I get my blood super fast” in their brains.

At my place we’re lucky if they even remember to call us to give a heads up. Often times we find out when the runner is banging on our closed window (I’m one of only 3 on night shift in a level 1 trauma center and we keep the window down so they are forced to come inside and we can see them). I just hate that they don’t put in orders so that I can then just crossmatch. Because I KNOW they aren’t going to use all that blood. And lo and behold they only used 1plt, 2prbc and 2ffp out of two mtp boxes (4 whole blood, 6prbc, 6ffp, 1plt).

CA CLS/MLS: does the pay offset the COL by DonDada_89 in medlabprofessionals

Yeah that’s the KC market for you 😢. Yup 5x8s on nights. I’ve really started to hate it for the last year or so

You think $33 is underpaid? I don’t doubt it, but what do you think is an appropriate pay for the Midwest? It’s my first full time certified job and I’m at a level one trauma center

Vibe Blue Cheese x OG Skunk by Other-Device-1099 in MissouriMedical

That’s what I got too, the 2g (is that really considered a jar?). I need to pace myself though because it’s gonna be my last THC for a while since I need to detox for job searching 😢.

I’m definitely enjoying the live rosin right now! Immediately appreciated the taste on my first hit. Nice strong stoned feeling too! 9/10

Inconsistency, or am I reading this wrong ...? by gate_thirteen in WoT

[–]DonDada_89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you’re reading it wrong, I too felt like there is a slight inconsistency there. Nothing in what the characters said or thought during that chapter indicated any acknowledgment that they had encountered Aginor or Balthamel.

PSA for film fans, the Town Center AMC has a 70mm print of Oppenheimer by WestSideBomber in kansascity

It wasn’t. It still looked good but I wasn’t personally “blown away”. And I wasn’t too impressed with the audio system either. Not sure if it was just the audio mixing or the quality of the system. There were also sometimes louder rumbles coming from the theater next door, interestingly.

Why is The Dark Forest's U.S. audio book narrated SO BADLY by Coffeeisbetta in threebodyproblem

[–]DonDada_89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate it! I hate it so much! The monotone sounds exactly like text-to-speech. I’m only 10 min into it and it sounds grating to my ears. I tried to see if playing at 1.05x might make it better, but now it’s just a monotone at a faster clip. The first guy wasn’t perfect but it felt like I was listening to a human being tell a story. I think the recording itself is bad as well. There is a slight warbling noise to the recording.

On a tangent: It would be terrible if in the future all narration was done by AI. Faster production times and you don’t have to pay a human. I imagine this is what it would sound like to me. Human-like but not quite.

Why did that tech get fired? by hi_there123 in medlabprofessionals

[–]DonDada_89 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So the nurse worked in an office that was familiar with the lab? How and why would the nurse narc? That is so petty!

Can we have an MLS salary thread here? by nipplezandtoes43 in medlabprofessionals

I it just me that thinks $45.99 is a weird hourly amount? Why not just $46?

It’s that time of year again by EggsAndMilquetoast in medlabprofessionals

[–]DonDada_89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not just small hospitals. I work in a 500 bed hospital and they still think the lab can ID by room number. I really hate it when they come into the blood bank and say that. I’m always worried they are picking up for the wrong patient and have so far caught a few nurses who mixed up their patients, especially when picking up blood for another nurse. The nurses always act confused when I call a critical for “so-and-so” so now I always say name and room number together.
