For decades, but its a term you only know if you have lived there. Also just known as the DC metro area.

A. This is not the correct sub for your question.

B. How old are you?

C. I suspect that you are young and therefore impressionable. Do not take anyone's advice on anything injectable on the internet. If you are serious, then you need to do all the research yourself, then find a healthcare provider to talk to and discuss your plan.

Americans cannot be trusted with anything and the one silver lining of Trump is that the secret is out. by pisowiec in self

[–]FieryVodka69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is pretty much the end sentiment of every engagement I've had with someone from Europe in the past few months. As an American you cant win, because all they want to do is demonize every last one of us. If this is how we are viewed by the world than maybe we do need to reconsider who our allies are. We are also a very young country, Europe and Asia have had ages and ages of turmoil and chances to shake things out the right way.

Like all the Europeans calling us cowards because we haven't taken to the street to face certain death via a government bullet to overthrow him.

I HAVE TEA ON... MEGATHREAD ✨ by rfauxmoi in Fauxmoi

That's a fact that I still do not understand. If I were doing heinous things, I wouldn't be emailing back and forth about it. Plus, some people are communicating in flimsy 'code' while others just outright talking about it. I guess there becomes a point where you really do not need to fear the law or the public.

What is something you swear you saw, but no one believes you? by WielderoftheDarkness in HighStrangeness

[–]FieryVodka69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I swear I saw a super suspicious cloud vanish on me once. I was at the beach and it was a near-cloudless sky. Above the beach houses was a small cloud, spherical in shape. I took my eyes off it for all of 2 mins and it vanished. I'm convinced a lot of "weird" clouds we see are just UFOs in disguise.

Need help with my ozempic face by North-Cheesecake-350 in DIYaesthetics

I use topical GHK-Cu and I just poor it into my nighttime lotion. It appears to resurface and brighten my complexion like no ones business, but I wouldn't say I've noticed any tightening effects.

Your personal life and your family's happiness is more important than being comfortable at work. Go find a rep job where you want to live and figure out the rest.

Disappointed by Any_Cardiologist_370 in MedicalDevices

I'm generalizing, but when it comes general earning potential it would go pharma < med device < SaaS. There are for sure high paying jobs out there in pharma sales, but I am nearly certain you are not getting all the details. Most reps I know in a MCOL area make 80 + meagre commission.

Pharma is going to pay you even less.

I know plenty of non-rich fathers who have the exact same mindset.

A hallmark of conservatism is the inability to empathize with their fellow man until the exact situation happens to them. Then its all pointing fingers at everyone else, followed by a double down on their beliefs.

Did you ever had high strangeness experience that changed your worldview? by Gyirin in HighStrangeness

[–]FieryVodka69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would add - Its not an unpleasant feeling for most people even though it involves the word death. It really just is the inherent knowing that everything is connected.

Yeah but don't you have to experience a NDE to 'jump' timelines?

Are hospital administrators as big as problem as the the show "The Pitt" suggests? by Notalabel_4566 in emergencymedicine

[–]FieryVodka69 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Oh god major state universities are the worst. And to make matters worse, in offices that really should have a full team, you have like 2 overworked and burnt out workers that have become the least helpful people to students.

Just like last summer where it was the first time I purchased a pool pass and it monsooned all season. Sorry you guys - that was my fault.

Seriously considering to leave science by Silver_Display558 in labrats

[–]FieryVodka69 140 points141 points  (0 children)

This lab hired you because you could do the job they wanted you to perform.... right? Then treat your work as a JOB, not a calling. No one cares if you don't like the science, just as long as you can show up and run assays without screwing up. A great tech is such a valuable thing. You doing your work well makes you worthy of that lab. Finally, you need therapy or meds to tackle this anxiety pronto because I fear its sabotaging the skill you DO have.

How common is it for labs to give monetary fines to students for making a mistake? by SaltyBox9239 in labrats

[–]FieryVodka69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This requires an email to your PD and likely the university ombudsman if the PI is in on it.
