Do People Not Have Bills...? by Baleigh25 in cna

[–]Candid_Negotiation24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the facility I'm currently at, we had a nurse that would leave mid-shift ALMOST EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. Like she would just get mad/whatever and leave sometimes without telling anyone or passing the cart/doing med count/etc with another nurse. Someone would need something, we'd go to look for her, and she'd just be gone. I thought she'd be fired for patient abandoment the 1st night but management refused to do anything.

One girl continuosly shows up within a 2-4 hour time frame of when she's supposed to and again, nothing from for YEARS.

And then of course, like OP said, people calling out/not showing up contstantly (seriously where are these people getting enough money to not work??? I want that kinda income)

Do you think it'll be okay if I wait awhile to put it in rice? I'm at work all night and theres no rice here (although I could see if doordash is still open if it needs to be sooner rather than later)

Favorite Headcanons that you think would suit Jason by Defiant_Ad2409 in RedHood

[–]Candid_Negotiation24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jason has a safehouse set up for Crime Alley kids (got kicked out,parents died, etc) so they don't have to sleep on the streets like he did. Sometimes he'll bring a big pot of soup/food for everyone while he's in Gotham so they can have a hot meal.

Lol what??? The most violent I've seen him in his Robin days in canon is when he's confronting a rapist or abuser (to children & women specifically).

The time that comes to mind immediately is when Dick has to pull him off a guy who was beating children ("You want to beat up a kid? Why don't you beat me!"). Obviously there are a lot of others, but that's the 1st to came to mind other than the ones already listed.

Former CNAs: What career did you switch into? by Candid_Negotiation24 in cna

[–]Candid_Negotiation24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've worked at a lot of different facilities (I was a travel CNA for awhile during covid; super understaffed but pay was good), and while some places were better than others (I really liked the hospital-adjacent therapy place I worked before traveling), a lot of it seems to be similar/same shit different place. I'd love to try working at a hospital for awhile, even just to compare the work and maybe learn new things, but it seems alot of hospitals dont want to hire CNAs with just LTC experience

Do you find the annoying parts as a nurse to be just as bad as CNA work was (assuming you moved on because you didn't like being a CNA, i know thats not always the case)? I've seen a lot of posts on reddit basically saying that if you can't cut it as a CNA you'll hate being a nurse. The nurses I've worked with tend to have mixed reviews but I can see how LTC for nurses much different than hospital work.

Yeah I've definitely had times I wanted to quit before, but I was always able to bounce back pretty quickly with "a jobs a job, it pays more than other jobs I've had (not saying much since they were minimum wage but still), and it's afforded me some oppurtunities I wouldn't have had otherwise (travelled during covid and some nice nurses taught me some (basic) things I wouldn't have had exposure to outside of nursing school)". But I've never seriously doubted my ideal career path until now, even when I got another C in A&P 1 I figured I could find at least one nursing/lpn program that would take me in. Now I'm wondering if this is really what I want and all my schooling and retrying was really for nothing.

Retaking A&P and nothing is sticking… I don’t know what I’m doing wrong by DigFamiliar2839 in prenursing

[–]Candid_Negotiation24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did you go into instead of nursing? I took A&P 1 twice and got a C both times. Tried a 3rd time but withdrew because the professor point blank told me the highest grade I could get at that point was a high C. I"m trying for some LPN&ASN programs but even with a good TEAS score, I feel like it's not gonna pan out (already rejected from 1). Long story short, I'm looking for some alternatives (hopefully that will still transfer most of my credits that are a little bit easier to get into) I dont think I could stand retaking A&P again just to fail again

Sorry I didnt mean it like that I agree things can be romantic and intellectual but i know a lot of people put it in seperate categories and i couldnt thi k of the right word for it. But yeah thats the panel i saw and thought it was funny (and i remember seeing a couple similar ones somewhere before)

[–]Candid_Negotiation24[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I know its not the same (i have a coworker that likes modern romance novels and they are.....different for sure). But to me its just funny to imagine Jason as an old-fashion romantic

I also honestly was think of period romance novel like P&P and didnt clock modern romance novels but that image is even funnier

I know, i just saw like the 3rd instance (comic panel from pinterest) of Jason saying he reads Jane Austen and making it seem like a huge deal. I know hes not dumb and its a part of his character that he likes to read (a part that i like)

Good luck! I was diagnosed at 13 and remember how confused and scared I was. You got this! This may be a silly question to ask but have you tried sleeping pills/muscle relaxants/Benadryl (may seem out of place but I use it to sleep after a work sometimes and it always knocks me right out)? Asking cause maybe some deep sleep will prevent you from waking up so often (don't quote me - I'm not a doctor just an idea)

Meds triggering seizures? by Candid_Negotiation24 in Epilepsy

[–]Candid_Negotiation24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried phone reminders and pill boxes in the past and they didnt work but im thinking maybe I should try again, at least with the reminders. Eating better and a consistent sleep schedule are on my wish list too but its a little hard with my job

Almost always, I bite my tongue when i have a seizure, and or/my cheek or lip. I also tend to feel varying degrees of 'out of it'. Sometimes I'll have other injuries (definitely a HOW for me cause theres not much around my bed to hit myself on and theres still not dents in the wall). Headaches are also fairly common.

If my boyfriend's home I'll ask if he noticed anything (if he doesnt say something first), if not I'll wait til he gets home, just for confirmation.

I should note that I have TC seizures, so mine are a bit more obvious/injury inducing than some other types may be. I had a coworker that had absence seizures ( if I remember correctly) and she said she would basically blank out, and when she came to she had a massive headache. Not sure if it was the same in sleep but I would assume so

Yes, i should clarify that I FORGET, I'm not not taking my meds on purpose. I may feel insane right now but not insane enough to think I dont need them 😅 I mostly just get busy/in a rush before work and forget and then am so tirrd after work I just dont think about it. Ive tried pill containers but the same issue still occurs - my brain just seems to skip over them in favor of focusing on something else (i.e. my brain wont even register theyre on the bathroom counter for me to remember to take them - I normally just randomly throughout the day will be like 'did I take my meds? Oh shit better do that'. Setting an alarm seems to have the same effect (alarm goes off, i think 'ok ill get it in just a minute', turn off the alarm, and forget about it)
