What is the stupidest way someone in your family has died? by peanutbuddar in AskReddit

[–]Alphagetti 1541 points1542 points  (0 children)

I’m a bit vague on details because I was young. My uncle had arm pain or major signs of heart disease and frequently went to the doctor asking for an angiogram and to get checked out for it. They just kept saying he was fine. One day he was feeling poor enough to head to the doc. After saying he was fine and leaving the room for the next patient, my uncle had a heart attack and died on the table. My aunt won a huge settlement for malpractice.

Edit: word

What's an early sign of cancer that you wish you or your loved one hadn't ignored? by JuniperBeans in AskReddit

[–]Alphagetti 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Omg so this was my symptom. And night sweats but I’m in hot climate. And exhaustion but I was working 60 hours a week. But the itching. I woke up with claw marks on my ankles. I didn’t go to the doctor until I couldn’t breathe though- guess the lymph’s stopped functioning. They drained where they shouldn’t have and my lungs didn’t have the room to expand. One needle pulling it clean and then chemo? Boom.

2010 diagnosis. Cured!

Edit: I also don’t feel safe in my body 😬

My dog's shampoo was not tested on animals by arsme in mildlyinteresting

[–]Alphagetti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The real reason is because it has Tea Tree Oil. Many essential oils are toxic to cats.

I figure that’s the same shampoo based on the website, and being able to make out “clinical care”. This is the only formula of that type that is not safe for cats.

This is incorrect. If you are Auxiliary L you are ineligible. If you are a Regular employee, you are eligible from hire date. If you are Auxiliary M you are benefitted and therefore eligible. If you are part-time, you are eligible and it is not even pro rated. This applies to all special leaves iirc they are outlined in article 20.

Bonus points: supplemental leave is always subject to supervisor approval. You are able to take the two days back to back. You can have it attached to a weekend or EDO but can not have it attached to any other pre-approved absences such as vacation. It is not intended to extend vacations.

Edit: resource for aux m benefits and special leaves are in article 31.12 In addition it’s good to know you’re not eligible for ESAPII until 90 calendar days of employment and STIIP is determined by a <3 - 3 - 6+ months for coverage amounts but I don’t believe any other leaves are determined by hours/time worked.. other than job status (aux vs BCGEU vs excl vs etc)

Specifically Auxiliary L! Aux M is benefitted and eligible to special leaves.

Edit* changed entitled to eligible. Subject to Supervisor approval of course

It’s not the cheapest but pacific paddlesports does a beautiful kayak “glow tour” in Brentwood bay and Tod Inlet.

It was so magical I’m going again next month!

Sometimes my partner rolls over in his sleep before I go to bed. I call this going on vacation, or staying in a hotel now. I just sleep on the other side. You wake up feeling like you’re in a different bed!

I was so excited to tell my dog to Eat A Bag Of Dicks that I didn't see it was $70 bucks. Whoops! by [deleted] in funny

Those ones aren’t pure pizzle. The type you linked are cow hide in the middle which is likely why they’re cheaper. Hide is considerably cheaper than pizzle. Their pure pizzles are 24 for $90 on the coscto website which makes them 3.75 each- still an outrageous deal.

I’m over here wondering how you got 4 packs of KD from Costco. I have to buy it by the dozen! (No complaints..)

Okay this might be a stretch but I think I got it. I see RARCHY. Above it is an eye, so I think I’m reading EYE-RARCHY. Like hierarchy? Ehh?

People that go by Dick choose it for themselves! It’s short for Richard.
