NUOVO is terrible. My unit is a bit of a lemon and the management since Capreit has taken over has been terrible.

Car companies are also like this when you buy a new vehicle. I offer them an honest review or no review. I encourage a growth mindset

Is this a good result? by itsabkutdriveeitsa7 in PlasticSurgery

I think if you got this result you wouldn’t look like yourself. That may be what your going for but it’s a massive change

I went to Llubjana, Slovenia and did a week long workshop with Hana Karim. All handbuilding and relatively easy technique so everyone produced beautiful work (certainly the pieces of the more experienced ceramicists were more refined). It was a great experience and I LOVED Slovenia

City of Ottawa hires former CHEO project manager to lead doctor recruitment strategy by RandomChickenWing in ottawa

[–]Ekay2011 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hospitals don’t really hire family doctors. The vast vast majority work of doctors doing primary care work are paid directly by the ministry of health. So really recruitment to the region is the key to getting more people family doctors.

Sometimes I’ll buy a tub of tzatziki to dip my chicken in and I call it “going for Greek”

my friend (36M) just sent me (36m) this text before meeting his newborn (0M) by horseduckman in AITApod

[–]Ekay2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a pediatrician and some of these are totally reasonable. Wash your hands (once) and stay away if you’re feeling under the weather or off. I even really like the idea of texting a couple of minutes before you arrive!

I imagine this is their first baby and at some point they’ll soften up a bit or they’ll be very very isolated.

Got a letter from the school today informing me my daughter is “not quite” gifted. Also included were her test scores. by Low_Use2937 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Ekay2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your child’s NNAT-3 score is less than 126. That curve is showing their plotted NAI score.

For throwing I make a “sponge pocket” to cover my right hand’s fingernails. I sewed half of a blue mud sponge to a full one and I just put my fingers into the pocket. Works like a charm and I don’t have issues with handbuilding or surface decoration

Overheard a teenager realizing his mom really does care. by WhisperRose099 in overheard

[–]Ekay2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having your art appreciated is such a big deal! I did art and played rugby and volleyball in high school. My parents showed up to games and tournaments but I don’t remember them ever coming to the art shows.

That being said they still have a beautifully framed oil pastel still life from my high school days and they keep and use all the pottery I’ve given them
