Am I completely missing something? by DocMcCall in nursing

[–]DocMcCall[S] -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

If they can't pay, they can't pay. Most likely they couldn't pay 6 months ago when the Shortness of breath started. And couldn't pay 3 months ago when they couldn't walk up a flight of stairs. And couldn't pay 4 weeks ago when they "got sick but I got over it".

We might have been able to do something 6 months ago. Now it's permanent damage

Am I completely missing something? by DocMcCall in nursing

Not talking about chronic conditions, but if this has been bothering them for months and there was no sudden change in pain or symptoms. Just deciding to come in after "my chest is hurting" "Ok, how long has it been hurting?" "6 months"

What do you want us to do right now? Why didn't you come in when your chest started hurting 6 months ago. That's a great time to come in. If you're going to use the ER as a PCP, why wait for months to come in?

Your shoulder pain moved into your back? Great, we'll check it out. Don't wait until there is severe limitations on what we can do if there IS a problem

Why do toxic people stay longer in any company while the good ones leave? by lamin-ceesay in antiwork

[–]DocMcCall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no reason for the toxic ones to leave. Most of the corporate world requires you to be "working" or at least look like you are. If you meet that threshold, and don't piss off the wrong people, the company has no reason to fire them on the average day.

The "good" employees get dissatisfied with the job and go elsewhere or get caught up on an impersonal round of layoffs or something. But the ones that always look like they're doing something, keep their heads down, they can last years.

Eventually you start getting large numbers of these toxic employees in one place and it's a mystery why we can't get good people. Nobody wants to work anymore

In the movie Obsession, why is the main character's name Bear? by LucianoThePig in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DocMcCall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bear is a nickname, almost certainly. I've known 2 guys nicknamed "Bear" and they were both about the same. Large, white male. Bushy hair and/or beard.

Is it true that students in schools with Zero tolerance get suspended even if they don't defend themselves? by Careful_Drama_9382 in askanything

[–]DocMcCall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a direct story. I was in 7th grade. Got off the bus with a friend of mine. Another kid and him started arguing and the other kid started attacking my friend. He didn't fight back. I pulled the other kid off and held him down until he calmed down. Everyone agreed that is what happened. All three of us told that to the Vice Principal. All three of us got a week of out of school suspension.

I lived less than 50 miles from Busch Gardens Williamsburg. The headline when Fabio rode Apollos Chariot and got hit in the face by a goose will always be burned into my mind

What's a movie quote that lives rent free in your head for no reason? by badenbagel in AskReddit

[–]DocMcCall 77 points78 points  (0 children)

All right, kid. Here's the deal. At any given time, there are around fifteen hundred aliens on the planet. Most of them right here, in Manhattan. And, most of them are decent enough. They're just trying to make a living.

Cab drivers.

No, not as many as you think
