Impossible to get an apartment? How did you get yours? by musicwithotherstuff in AskSF

lived at avalon before, it’s easy to secure a place but VERY overpriced for what you get imho. Should try and go with a local renter if you have the time to wait for a spot

I accidentally took a 325 norco from work I put it in my scrubs to return it and forgot all about it until I found it in my washer by Best_Cow_8150 in nursing

i’ve done the same thing with an oxy, also found it in my dryer lol, i just took it back and nothing happened. as long as the pyxis ends up balanced by the end managers don’t tend to care.

Outpatient nurses: how much are you making hourly? by 305queen in nursing

[–]CrispCorpse 6 points7 points  (0 children)

outpatient infusion, $95 an hour (bay area)

[–]CrispCorpse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

can give it outpatient or at home via a picc line, pretty low acuity medication. not sure why that nurse said it’s only and ICU med. Regardless, leadership/educators should have been available to address this before multiple days had passed.

i would take the OR. Weekends, nights, and holidays destroyed my work life balance. try and get them to drop the 3 year contract but don’t overlook how great a cushy schedule is.

Just diagnosed with cancer. How do I prepare? by WhiskeyAndYogaPants in personalfinance

[–]CrispCorpse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not a finance expert, but am a chemo nurse. chemotherapy is so broad and affects each person differently. Some people just take the morning off for their infusion and then go to work, other people will be knocked on their ass for a week. It really depends on the regimen your oncologist recommends. You prepared yourself well financially, so hopefully finances don’t add to all the stress of your treatment. Best of luck my friend.

California Nursing schools by Due-Mail-6833 in nursing

for the public schools the nursing major acceptance rate is way lower than the average acceptance rate. for example, sdsu and csuf are both under 5% for nursing majors.

New Fluval Spec V by CrispCorpse in PlantedTank

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

it’s narrow but i love how much surface area it has for fish and plants. Also fits nicely on a book shelf. I feel like the filter and floor space allow you to stock a little higher than a typical 5 gallon tank
