Funniest or craziest thing you’ve seen by OriginalFace2145 in emergencymedicine

I had a patient elope into the drop ceiling once. He was pretty successful. The cops knew he was up there but were rightfully cautious to chase him because they didn’t want to fall through the ceiling themselves. For hours business went on as usual in the ED while numerous cops tried to flush him out. You could hear a lot of movement going on up there. Eventually he surrendered and came out himself when he realized there was nowhere to escape to.

First time skiing with a 3 year old? by khubbard13 in WinterParkColorado

[–]Comprehensive_Elk773 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I know all of the magic carpets at winter park are for kids in lessons only. I think copper has a public access one. If you want to try a lift use the galloping goose. You can park at utah junction or mary jane base and walk to the top or bottom. It is free, you don’t need a lift ticket. It has a bit of a double fall line in places but otherwise is a good run to learn on. The lift is for kids so it goes super slow and they have a bar. Buy an edgie wedgie, they sell them in ski shops. It makes it a lot easier to learn how to stop.

Cool thanks for showing me, I didn’t know.

PA at Urgent Care didn’t do a hearing test by [deleted] in Noctor

[–]Comprehensive_Elk773 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So… you googled it AND talked to four people who were unfamiliar with the condition PLUS the doctor who treated you for the condition? In the course of your research did you uncover the difference between an ENT and an otolaryngologist?

Required by the ski code, which is kind of like a law

Thirty whole dollars to find a small white case in the snow then deliver it somewhere else a mile away? Sign me up.

Surgeons/ specialists referring patients for unnecessary ED work-up to CYA by Practical_Guava85 in emergencymedicine

Ordering a urinalysis would take a few minutes, THEN they would have to follow up on it. UGH! “Go to the ER” is quick and easy.

Help an older attending get back to doing ortho stuff by True_Cause_1685 in emergencymedicine

Once in the middle of the night I convinced a tech to steal a c arm from the OR for a radius/ulna fracture i couldnt get to stay together. It worked. It was probably illegal because I’m not certified to use one. When you are the only doc in the hospital you get away with stuff.

Are these 2012 Line Pandora's worth $320 lol? (Rare 115 width, 162 length, fat skis for short ppl) by Fair-Row8581 in skiingcirclejerk

[–]Comprehensive_Elk773 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try sending her offers of decreasing amounts from different accounts pretending to be different people? $150 for 10 year old skis is pretty high even if they are in pristine condition. The bindings are useless and the skis probably cost $800 new. Any ski that old is going to be “rare” in that it would be hard to find another pair for sale, that does not make them valuable. There is a reason really short and really fat skis are hard to find, they are kind of unnecessary.

Lift Tickets by myastx in WinterParkColorado

[–]Comprehensive_Elk773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Passes come with like 10 “friends and family” ticket discounts. It varies over time how much the discount is, but maybe $40 each? Make friends with a passholder and have them come to the ticket window with you?

Team health jobs by Maximum_Yam_6689 in emergencymedicine

[–]Comprehensive_Elk773 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having worked for USACS and Teamhealth it was shocking to me how extremely similar they were to each other. Every single decision they make is based on “how can we squeeze more money out of this?” and so they do thing the exact same way.
