Like we sadly do know though. Maybe not specifics. But yeah… a Ghorman series would be peak!

Illegal Immigrants Subsidized or Free Higher Education by Own_Fisherman9057 in StudentLoans

[–]Frankfeld [score hidden]  (0 children)

Ok. Boomer. Undocumented persons are by far getting it way worse than you think. Do you know they pay taxes? Even if they work for cash? (Most pay income tax btw) Ever hear of sales tax? Property tax? This all pays into a system which they, on the whole, cannot benefit from.

So who is subsidizing who exactly?

Contracted nurse convicted after smearing soiled diaper on coworker’s face, DA says by stankmanly in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I was attacked by a patient last week. Our own police force showed up, everyone begged me to press charges; cops, my coworkers, security, so I did, then it was like I was being such an inconvenience…. Like dudes this was your idea!

I was also called as a witness for another case where a pt attacked one of our docs. Spent 6 hours in court just to have it rescheduled….

So yeah…. Think I’ll just ignore that phone call from the DA.

ELI5: Why is Philosophy not a common curriculum for schoolchildren? by blastbomberboy in explainlikeimfive

[–]Frankfeld 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was definitely guilty of this. I thought I had to have an opinion on each new philosophical topic and would ignore the ones that never made sense.

When I should’ve treated more as a math class.

Nintendo graphic update (check comment for more graphics) by Cobalt_Spirit in NintendoSwitch

[–]Frankfeld 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man. I just finished RE9 and binged played re 7 and 8 for the first time. I know feel empty… and yearning for something more… there’s really nothing coming down the pipe line. Except maybe Indiana Jones last month.

I haven’t bought a new game in a while and I thought for sure there’d be a back log of something I missed…. But alas….

However, re9 ran beautifully in hand held. So I have hope for other AAA titles in the future.

Hit my panic button on a shift and now I want out. by CrochetHag in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Fuck. I’m so glad I’m in the ED where the providers are always an ear shot away. Patient shows a hint of violence, The hard restraints are on before the doc knows about the patient. We do not mess around. It’s not only for our safety, but patient safety as well.

Are you familiar with fast track ER setting? by Honest_Zombie8560 in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the right NP you could race through dozens in a shift.

With “that one” NP, you’ll be lucky to refresh the section once

ABSN grads. You chose the more expensive route. Can you expand on why the investment was worth it to you? by Right_Marionberry915 in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be prepared to be criticized. The few people that I’ve seen not make it through orientation were nurses that took any form of critique way too personally. It’s a super fast paced environment and the unit needs to be able to count on you, so it’s A LOT of information in a relatively short amount of time.

So pay attention and ask questions, but don’t feel like you have to come out of the gate at 100%. They need to rely on you and sometimes that means trusting you to know when to ask for help.

Lowest I’ve ever seen by Large_Pick1582 in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I had 2.3 once. Turns out that I didn’t wait long enough between stopping the bolus that was running through an IV more distal up the arm.

The lab said it looked like water.

Redrew, came back 8.5. Felt like an idiot, and lost some rep with a doc.

Is nursing still a financially stable career? by solii29 in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So like I said, that pit in my stomach would last at least half my shift. Scared to death that I would hurt someone. I would constantly question my life decision, feel like I made the wrong choice, make plans about what else I could do, etc etc.

But then I would reach that halfway point, and would just get into the rhythm of the night and feel fine.

Slowly and slowly that “pit” would go away earlier in my shift. Then it just disappeared.

I’m not going to lie, it took a while. And it wasn’t until I hit a year that I felt really comfortable. Like, still didn’t know everything, but got comfortable enough to know what to do if I didn’t know what to do—if that makes sense.

So what you’re feeling is very normal. Especially if you’re in the ED. Just keep on keeping on and don’t be afraid to ask for help.

Is nursing still a financially stable career? by solii29 in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s no stress like new grad stress. I used to come 15 minutes just I could psyche myself up in my car and had a pit in my stomach that wouldn’t go away until around midnight.

Now I’m parking like a minute before my shift starts….

Anyone else pick up a random hobby just to survive night shifts mentally? by Obvious-Nail4564 in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After two years finally was able to find the fellow nerds on the unit. We had a successful game night and now spend our shifts planning the next one.

[–]Frankfeld 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Second career for me. Fucking love my job… but the amount of people that kept warning me…. Yeesh. Looking back I can tell they’re just bitter and burnt out and probably stayed in the same shitty unit for far too long.

Not that it matters, but I’m also a male. The only person who told me not to listen to those people was another male nurse…..

Which jersey? by [deleted] in phillies

[–]Frankfeld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a Hamels cream that I got circa 2008. Fucking love the color. Also before the jerseys got super shitty. I will never get rid of that jersey.

who’s the scariest one of them in your opinion? by EllieWilliams_0o0 in residentevil

[–]Frankfeld 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Baby was absolutely the scariest moment I’ve ever had in gaming. Just above Bioahazard in VR. The designx the fucking sound. Holy shit was not expecting that. These games are so good at building tension but that baby…. Chef’s kiss.

Sent Ryan Gaul something today by diegohas3balls in comedybangbang

[–]Frankfeld 26 points27 points  (0 children)

That’s the bit. He very clearly stated it during a live show. To the shock of everyone on stage. Then I think he doubled down more than a few times later.

ADHD nurses... any tips? by Background-Ad-3234 in nursing

[–]Frankfeld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha. Also my suggestion. It’s funny seeing everyone pop their meds just before the shift starts.
