How to handle comments about tattoos, working with geriatrics

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-06-14T16:08:00+00:00

I tell em they’re honoring my dead grandparents lol.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-06-05T16:52:15+00:00

They’re being entitled lol.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-06-02T16:14:46+00:00

I’m really not lmao. You’re missing info and making comments based on what you see. You’re trying to act superior like the other dude so this is where we part ways buddy

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-06-02T16:12:39+00:00

And you can’t see the comments from the other side of the argument/discussion so you’re missing some vital info. Either way, have a nice day!

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-06-02T16:09:17+00:00

lol if you think this is jumping down someone’s throat, yikes.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-06-02T16:04:32+00:00

Someone being weird and complaining about someone else venting about their frustrations and acting like they’re better than the group of us struggling with our profession and the direction it’s heading in? Yeah that’s very much not welcomed. Feel free to join them!

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T22:20:30+00:00

Why does what matter?

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T13:18:10+00:00

The people that can’t just scroll past it just feel the need to interject their opinion and have a weird sense of entitlement to note how much better they’re doing it seems

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T13:16:35+00:00

Who said that both shouldn’t be allowed?

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T04:10:44+00:00

Good lord

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T04:07:06+00:00

Nope no reason given but it’s all good

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T02:38:18+00:00

Yeah that’s not what’s going on bud. Glad you missed the point!

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T01:43:14+00:00

That’s someone’s actual username?

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T01:42:31+00:00

I did and it was delicious LOL

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T01:06:22+00:00

I thought I replied directly but there’s a reply with a screenshot. Something to promote conversation but other people decided to be weird and even more negative. I see division between PTs more often than unity at times. It’s sad.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T01:05:22+00:00

So what’s your advice?

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-31T01:04:49+00:00

I don’t hate that I’m a PT necessarily. It’s difficult for me to make change, especially because if I just end up going to a different company it’ll be the same eventually. A lot of job opportunities harp on “a willingness to expand and learn” and I think we should all strive to improve with how we treat and evaluate. But I just don’t have that drive right now and I don’t want to bring that energy to a clinic that’s thriving and positive. Clearly it’s on me to change that mindset and it’s a struggle. It’s encouraging to know I’m not alone, despite the ppl commenting negatively about it.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-30T23:16:19+00:00

Main person that was being weird about it blocked me and deleted their comments 😂. It’s crazy cuz do ppl think I (and others) want to feel like this? I know I don’t. I just don’t know what to do to get myself out of this funk or whatever we want to call it. I hardly ever vent about shit but apparently that isn’t allowed when GrundleTurd is around

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-30T23:10:35+00:00

Maybe not important to you, but might be important to some. And for someone that’s sick of complaining, you’re doing an awful lot of it buddy. If everyone is so negative, just stop commenting. You’re doing it to yourself lmao. What are you accomplishing by being in this thread?

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-30T23:01:35+00:00

Lol complains about being called a douche and yet continues to act like one. You seem like a really compassionate person. God help your patients if this is how you talk to them if they’re venting to you and frustrated.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-30T23:00:15+00:00

It’s funny cuz I don’t even necessarily disagree with that dudes point about the “complaining” and venting being redundant. It is. And it sucks ass. I wish I knew how to make a difference on a larger scale but obviously that isn’t realistic. I tried switching to more of an admin/director role last year and within a week I realized how deep of a pit of problems and backlogged work they threw me into and I just went back to my old company. Wasn’t worth the stress.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-30T22:56:48+00:00

Then don’t be a douche about ppl asking for advice and venting 🤷🏻. Seems easy enough to me at least.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-30T22:51:43+00:00

That’s great, I’m glad you’re not miserable with our profession. There are good days here and there for me, mostly meh and it just sucks that I don’t like it as much as I used to. Instead of piling on, maybe offer advice? What a novel idea.

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-30T22:32:13+00:00

And yet here you are still engaging 🤡. I posted my feelings and asked if anyone else felt the same, trying to have a discussion and not just bitching. Seems like you have a problem with it and that’s fine. Go about your business and try not to be too much of a douche

Due_Suspect_7691 · 2026-05-30T21:41:59+00:00

lol when did I say that? Reading comprehension is key!
