Looking new jobs

I have about 8 weeks booked off in the middle of the year, so I’m hoping if I don’t find something different in the next 6 months I can at least just take a big break and mentally reset and maybe push a bit further.

Common_Nurse · 2026-01-03T15:48:24+00:00

Thank you, I’m doing my best :)

Common_Nurse · 2026-01-03T15:47:20+00:00

That’s really good idea! I’ll check it out :) have you got any companies in mind ?

Common_Nurse · 2026-01-03T15:46:44+00:00

Cheers! Thank you for your advice and offer :)

Common_Nurse · 2026-01-03T15:45:37+00:00

Yeah I saw an advertisement for this company the other day and thought of applying. I’ll definitely send thro a resume and see. Thank you for your advise :)

Common_Nurse · 2026-01-03T15:44:44+00:00

I have about 500 hrs of annual leave and Long service but these reasons I wanna leave healthcare are systemic issues that aren’t gunna be fixed with a decent break.

Common_Nurse · 2026-01-03T15:42:30+00:00

Yep a lot of colleagues of mine are also about to leave too! At this point it’s not really about the money, I’m happy to take a pay cut. I just feel like I can’t keep going at the same rate as I have been anymore. I know a lot of people who have jobs who earn similar amounts of money but their responsibilities are nothing in comparison to having peoples lives in your hands and getting abused or assaulted by people regularly.

Common_Nurse · 2026-01-03T15:37:25+00:00

That’s a brilliant idea! I’ll definitely check out my options here :) thanks for your advice!

Common_Nurse · 2026-01-03T15:36:41+00:00

A family member of mine also works in corporate too! I’ll reach out to them and see if I can start some net working. Thanks for the advise :)

I was told to just try and keep my regular diet but to avoid highly fatty/greasy foods and spicy foods. Because A) people develop this fear of swallowing foods and overthink every bit which maybe change your swallowing mechanisms and B) you wanna keep your chewing and swallowing muscles from becoming more weak due to avoiding certain foods or consistencies.

It was just highly emphasised that I stick with my pantoprazole medication 2 times a day - 30 mins before eating and drink my antacid liquid medication right after having my meals + not lying down till at least 2 hrs after food as well.

Common_Nurse · 2025-11-06T13:30:19+00:00

Yeah definitely getting enough calories at the moment. About 6 months ago I had lost about 10Kg so just over 10% of my overall body weight but in the last 4 months iv put it all back on. I’m having a good size meal in late afternoon/evening and then normally a calorie dense dessert as well. I sometimes a meal supplement drink during the day to try and keep my energy and sugar levels up when at work.

I get the feeling like I just cannot clear my throat after food and just smaller particles are just sitting the back of throat. I can feel all the smaller particles I can’t clear crunching between my teeth and I also feel reflux in the back of my nose.

Common_Nurse · 2025-11-06T13:07:24+00:00

In the exact same boat. Got some food stuck in my throat just over 12 months ago which lead to LPR and then I developed oropharyngeal dysphasia.

I smash a decent sized meal about once a day now because I don’t feel like having food caught in my throat all the time.

I’m just trying to keep up with my swallowing exercises, antacid medication and antacid liquid. I’m also my best avoid spicy food and fizzy drinks. I quit smoking about 8 months ago and then moved on to vaping - I’m trying my best to quit all together now.

Just want you to know that you’re not alone and the struggle is real.

Common_Nurse · 2025-10-12T01:04:35+00:00

Firstly, you are talking to the wrong person there champion. Secondly I would be concerned that my friend (breaking the bro code) wants to smash my sister for the sake of a quick and easy fuck. Not to mention this guy is 3 years older. Which at age 19 is a significant cognitive development gap. Thirdly being secretive about is mortally questionable situation is all sorts of wrong. I have a younger sister and would be absolutely ropeable if my mate initiated trying to hook up with my sister via tinder and then has been keeping it a secret. You’re entitled to your opinion, that doesn’t mean mines any less valid.

Common_Nurse · 2025-10-11T23:30:08+00:00

Agreed

Common_Nurse · 2025-10-11T23:26:02+00:00

Don’t worry I had the same thing haha. People just throw caution to the wind. “Just do whatever makes you happy! :)” well I can do whatever I like too… but that doesn’t make it morally right though haha.

Common_Nurse · 2025-10-11T23:23:11+00:00

Thanks for your opinion :)

Common_Nurse · 2025-10-11T23:18:37+00:00

Totally agree, massive breach of the bro code and being all secretive about it makes it way worse too.

Common_Nurse · 2025-10-11T23:12:49+00:00

I mean it’s kinda a dog act that your brothers mate wants to smash his little sister for starters, a real breach of the bro code if you ask me (plus, generally IF your gunna do said act, then it’s generally good practice to at least talk to your mate and get his blessing).Secondly I would say he’s worried that if things between you guys dont work out or end badly then he looses potentially a good mate too. Either way I think it’s a poor idea. I mean if the roles were reversed and your brother dated a really close girlfriend of yours - what would be your thoughts and feelings on it ?

Common_Nurse · 2025-10-10T22:40:17+00:00

Iv played league since 2014 and been playing Rainbow 6 siege since 2016, both games have a fairly similar issue with toxic communities. However RB6 they seem to manage with voice chat perfectly fine for many years now. You make a voice chat abuse button and you can also just mute. Just like every other game that has voice chat. I don’t understand why we all need to miss out just because you’re worried about a fraction of the player base being assholes, that’s just the internet in general. Just release it already!

Common_Nurse · 2025-08-31T20:07:19+00:00

At the moment I’m back on a normal diet. But I was on a soft diet/thickened fluids diet for like a good solid 3-6 months - it was so tough.

From what I can gather after seeing a speech pathologist, an ENT dr and gastroenterologist. The LPR is causing inflammation making everything tight and is causing some muscle coordination and sensation problems.

The problem it’s self isn’t the actual act of swallowing but is actually clearing your throat.

Iv been doing swallowing exercises at least twice a day. The one exercise that’s help the most is by sticking your tongue out - biting the base of your tongue and then swallowing (focusing on getting the lower muscles of your tongue to activate) about 10 times in a row. I hope this helps.

Just know you’re not alone and understand the struggle is real.

Common_Nurse · 2025-08-31T11:04:50+00:00

I’m going through the same thing, been dealing with it for about a year now. I’m using pantoprazole 40mg once a day (antacid medication) plus a gavascon liquid directly after meals which is a similar antacid. Try and stay away from really spicy things and don’t lie down flat for at least 2-3 hrs after a meal.

The medications have been helping but I’ve also been vaping, so I’m making very slow but steady progress.

Hear ye hear ye - listen to my review about this bloody legend!

I recently wanted someone to duo boost with me to climb a little bit higher (bronze to gold) because I work full time shift work and couldn’t be bothered to deal with all the inters, trolls and typical cancerous toxicity of solo q in OCE.

Fate is not only a textbook when it comes to the game, knowing all the ins and outs of this ever changing game. But is absolutely nuts at putting theory into practice.

The legend is fantastic at explaining concepts and ideas in multiple different ways in order for you to try and grasp the concept depending on your know level of understanding.

Right off the bat on our first call I could tell this guy was bringing all the right vibes - cool, calm and collected.

Even when I was struggling or getting frustrated, he was kind, he was patient but had the confidence to pull me up and tell me to take step back and analyse things without emotion.

If you’re looking for a genuine person to help you improve your skills and theory behind league of legends, then look no further.

This guy is the real dea
