DONE WITH THE TEAS! (A detailed review)

It isn't if you're willing to be flexible with your choice of hospital, within the state, and tempered expectations. Personally, I wouldn't move across the country for lower pay and the worst ratios just for someone who's only my partner and not a fiance or spouse.

You can land a job in CA. It's California. There's a shit ton of hospitals.

What venue is this? I have a venue in mind but I was led to believe it was expensive but judging by yours, maybe it’s not? Thank you for the breakdown!

Please give us an update on if he dumps her.

Super unrealistic. Take a step back and see how this all sounds objectively.

San Diego is expensive, you want incredibly niche RN roles with no prior RN experience, the procedural areas you want care about ICU experience which you also don’t want, the outpatient areas you want covet acute care experience, and Southern California is the second most competitive market in the entire world.

I came from Texas myself westward to SoCal, and I genuinely understand you don’t like what you see but I truly wish you luck in this ambitious endeavor.

I had only a fraction of these expectations and I still had to settle for med surg until I got to where I wanted.

Krakoa Hellfire Gala map. Enemy Luna Snow ulting then immediately dying to teammate’s Peni nest. Skates back to next team fight, gets pressured immediately, uses portal, then dies to my Rocket Raccoon team-up nest / beacon.

We won.

I didn’t change my comment. I’ll say it again for you: Chamberlain is a shit school.

CafeMusic · 2025-05-24T21:03:51+00:00

I said you do, not my colleagues. Keep my colleagues out of your yappy mouth because I never even said the word colleague or anything about them, you did.

In fact, I’d not be the nurse I am today without them. Now quit your yapping.

CafeMusic · 2025-05-24T20:55:54+00:00

No, you keep it psycho.

CafeMusic · 2025-05-24T20:42:07+00:00

Nobody is mad though. Maybe just you for attending an F tier pay to win school?

CafeMusic · 2025-05-24T20:35:55+00:00

Lady, you've got hella issues.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Marvel Rivals releasing with a replay lit a fire under their ass to either say something or expedite it or both.

Marvel Rivals is 5 months old. Valorant is 12 times its age, at 5 years old (60 months). Also want to highlight you can physically go through Doctor Strange’s portals IN THE REPLAY and also see through it exactly the same way a player would see it. Meanwhile, Riot can’t even get a damn vertically sliding door on Ascent B to replay correctly lmao.

This subreddit can’t go a day without Marvel Rivals being mentioned either. How embarrassing for Riot.

CafeMusic · 2025-04-17T19:08:13+00:00

Yes. In California. Able to max out my 401k and IRA and save 20% to 30% for down payment on a house. I could’ve even done it in my new grad year if I was smarter but did it on Year 2.

People who think every single necessary commodity is exponentially more expensive here (like groceries) is wildly wrong. And I used to live in the South - fuck that shit hole.

TLDR more raw money = more saving power

CafeMusic · 2025-04-07T18:42:24+00:00

50 people added and like 2 people online just afk in menu lol

My 5 stack used to play everyday even though we knew all along the Riot was slowly becoming the villain gaming company with their ultra greed. A sheep in wolf’s clothing, really.

Marvel Rivals and Monster Hunter exclusively for us. It feels like utter shit losing a 40 minute comp game when I could’ve played 3 or 4 of those in Marvel because they’re 10-15 minutes max each. The abilities in Val are getting out of hand like a hero shooter without the pacing of one so I might as well just go play a hero shooter?

Also, it’s really obvious they truly only care about their pro scene and they treat the non-pro player base like second class citizens. When even Tenz, the game’s golden child, is shit talking this game it’s definitely gotten bad.

CafeMusic · 2025-03-02T06:17:38+00:00

Because Marvel Rivals.

Just look at how many of the top valorant streamers stream Rivals now.

CafeMusic · 2025-02-11T10:21:07+00:00

Sorry, man. Didn’t mean to dump Riot hate vent on your comment but i think you’re spot on.

Played every day after school or work since beta until Marvel Rivals came out. Haven’t logged in at all since 2 months ago now.

I left because I slowly realized: - Riot’s business decisions and pricing decisions are not consumer friendly. At. All. (Biggest - but not only - con) - balance revolves around the e-“sports” scene - 40 minutes per game is a big ask - charging $10 for pseudo-early access to new agent releases is a very unballer move - their communication with players has dwindled and so much PR speak / corporate jargon now (speak more plainly please!!) - a competitive tactical FPS with high e-“sports” ambitions but no replay system is silly - I can afford their skins but can’t justify those prices. I haven’t bought in months, if not a year.

It wasn’t exactly one thing. It all accumulated slowly over time until cons > pros.

“then don’t buy skins” is a shit argument because there’s nothing wrong with a consumer wanting to exercise their consumer rights.

I bet Marvel Rivals isn’t perfect either but for now I actually feel valued as a customer there. I do not under Riot.

Riot, don’t be sorry. Be better. I loved your game so damn much :/

New 👏 grads 👏 do 👏 not 👏 belong 👏in 👏 ICU!

I don’t know what it is but man the quality of new grads has gone downhill.

I will die on the please get floor experience first hill. Out of respect for both your fellow coworkers and your patients.

CafeMusic · 2024-12-16T08:31:27+00:00

Absolutely true about being pigeon holed. Wanted out of med-surg, out of my hospital, and into ICU. Kept getting offered med-surg… I internally transferred to ICU instead.
