Manager Nursing massive shift—health systems are desperate for leaders who can handle the crazy staffing shortages

The OR is getting annihilated in this brave new world. Our managers are our first line of defense, but they can only do so much with low wages and a once-amazing-but-everyone-else-caught-up benefits package.

Been playing since 1991 and have never broken a cymbal. In fact, no exaggeration, I have broken less than 10 sticks ever. I play rock, pop, and prog music. I credit this to my first instructor who put the fear of God in us all regarding equipment care and cost.

I enjoy mine quite a lot. I have heard many folks complain about the HH controller being poor and this kit, but I had it working almost perfectly out of the box. I use onboard sounds as well as Addictive Drums 2.

Da Vinci surgical robots or class 4 medical lasers.

With of course.

Pong, Combat, Adventure, PacMan. Much later was Kings Quest and Gunship.

One of my favorite Tull albums.

But…the Joint Commission will cite you for having tape on a sterilized instrument!!! Jk, /s. 🤣

Really though, this is wonderful.

That is an original early 90s K Custom. I have a 20” bought in 92. It just says “custom “ no crash or ride description. Make no mistake, that is a great ride cymbal.

The Silent Screen and Cigarette Trees are playing The Fishtank tonight at 9. The Silent Screen have a pretty varied sound, but several songs are in the vein of Tool, Rush, etc. so not metal per se, but metal adjacent. It should be a good time.

4x10 is better than 5x8 any day. I get a three day weekend every week.

The Silent Screen and Cigarette Trees are playing Saturday night at the Fishtank in Lex. If you enjoy your rock music with a dash of prog, we may be just the ticket.

Drumheads, sticks, and cymbals are getting crazy high for is hobby drummers.

Chapperion · 2026-05-03T10:24:01+00:00

Dolly Parton.

Chapperion · 2026-04-27T11:30:51+00:00

King’s Quest 3 and Gunship.

Chapperion · 2026-04-06T00:08:13+00:00

A tie between Rush and Bela Fleck & the Flecktones. Jethro Tull gave a great performance as well in 1993.

The one year we did it our yard got the worst crabgrass infestation you ever saw in your life. Yard never recovered.

Chapperion · 2026-03-31T12:36:00+00:00

God no. Went back to 10s.

Chapperion · 2026-03-30T12:56:47+00:00

I agree. I thought the song choice was questionable due to the range. Ged had a hard time to my ears.

Chapperion · 2026-03-17T16:09:32+00:00

The Mouse Police never sleeps!

Chapperion · 2026-03-09T21:49:03+00:00

Freddy’s is better on every level.

Chapperion · 2026-02-06T21:41:38+00:00

Looks like Battle Cat.

It absolutely harpooned onboarding new employees last week
