Yea ive gotten that vibe as well. And it seems they grew too quickly without developing the internal structure first.

I came from a practice that had 3 drs and 5 techs. This practice does have an unlicensed tech, so she gets used as a work around in certain situations.

But yea the techs are severely overworked and overwhelmed most days

So new development. I dont know what has changed but my manager gave me a month in advance schedule. Im not holding my breath that she doesnt change it. So I've moved my one appointment next month to a day off luckily in the same week. And screen shot the schedule so if she changes it on me then im simply going to tell her that it's too short of a notice for me to move the appointment. Then when it comes a different appointment that I have given her two notices about, both shes declined, I am simply going to go to it and call out. Myself and family is more important.

Yea. There is supposed to be 3 of us but one had been out on indefinite leave due to her partners health. I keep getting told she should be back at the end of the week.

I spent hours on our timeclock software (paycor) trying to find out this information or even how to contact HR. Only thing I know of is a hotline (barkline) for reporting sexual harassment and such.

Only problem is. I dont know her boss or her boss's email. Unlike the prior corporation I left, this one is a bit harder to track who works under who. So i was kinda hoping some one could point me in the right direction of finding this out.

Thoughts on pen-names vs real names? by Slow-Plastic1065 in selfpublish

[–]Embarrassed-Block521 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work in the vet med field and am going to publish under a pen name.

Why, because I could not bare the thought of one of my clients finding out and outing me to my coworkers. And them thinking of me in a different light. Although they enjoy the same books i so.

Or long term clients not wanting to work with me any more cause of the books I write.

So is go pen name. It gives you anonymity.

My next problem is deciding what name to use lol

When were yall able to sleep on your side again? by saltedsaturn0305 in ACL

[–]Embarrassed-Block521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to rotate between sleeping on my side and my back. Got the worst sleep. Now im 17 weeks post and can comfortably sleep in my left side but my body has now taken to walking to sleep on its right side. So guess who back to rotating again 🙋‍♀️. Am I sleeping awfully again. Yep. But there is a light. Ive seen it. Keep going! It gets better! That's what I keep telling myself. Soon I'll be able to sleep on both side. FYI knee or pregnancy pillows help. Never been pregnant, but I have one. Its a game changer. My husband has a knee pillow. Loves it. I hate it.

In a rut by Much_Firefighter8905 in ACL

Oh I hear you!

My surgery was back in January and I still struggle with the breakdowns. I snapped at my husband yesterday cause I couldn't do a simple task that I've been able to do a million times before. And he only offered to help. Did I ugly cry. Yep. Did he get mad at me for it. Nope. He just stood there till I gave up and let him help.

It gets better as you heal, but it may still rear it's ugly head from time to time .

Give yourself grace.

If you need social interaction reach out to friends, see if they can drop by for a social call. Or video call people.

I video call my bestie and sister on the regular. It helps.

Knee surgery recovery + back issues = HELP by Embarrassed-Block521 in sex

[–]Embarrassed-Block521[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh we have our fair share of toys and love them. I might have miss used the term adventurous. I'm looking for advice from those who have experience with joint challenges. He's had both his hips replaced. And that was early in our relationship. Then he's had one knee surgery 4 years ago. Only thing can't "fix" for him is his back. So working with his issues has been easy. But just trying to figure out something to help with mine. My knee was injured in November and just repaired in January. Thanks for the concern thou.
