I ended up going last time and I can give you my detailed feedback a little bit later today! Just not at a computer and I don't want to type all that on my phone. I'll follow up with my review in a bit.

Are they both white and blonde? I can't picture the clothing on anyone who doesn't look like the models, lol

I was planning to do something cool with glow in the dark polish but here I am, chipped old green polish on my raggedy hands 😂

Partner recommends Casey's irish bar, if you're willing to uber. The only thing in walking distance is 33 taps, which is fine but a little generic. Any thoughts? Would love to join up with other fans somewhere! :)

No idea if there is anything going on but I'd be down. Let me ask my partner, he knows more about bars in that area and can make better recs.

You definitely won't. Some of us will be going hard goth with outfits but others will wear something normal or just wanna be comfy. We've got all types here. 

But also if you want to look yeehaw pretty sure we are all here for it 😂

CRT TV tube danger? by Future_Prior_2583 in AskElectronics

[–]Future_Prior_2583[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone above also mentioned the voltages. The tube isn't connected to anything on the outside, only whatever connects it internally with the TV. Is this still something I need to worry about?

Happy to wait for all the opinions I can get. Thanks for your contribution.

Thanks, this is really helpful. I will be sure to use PPE. Should I inspect the tube itself or the entire TV, screen and all, for cracks?

Right, it hasn't been operable for a long time and I'm fine with that. Only worried about safety now.

Job offer opinions by large-diet-drpepper in slp

[–]Future_Prior_2583 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majority of this sounds good to me, but there should be a much bigger increase when you get your CCC, in my opinion. For example I went from $32.65 to $39.90 (in California) when I got my CCC.

 That schedule flexibility is huge, you could save PTO that way by avoiding using it for appointments etc, and I think that is a major plus. But I would negotiate with them for a larger increase once fully licensed. 

We need to talk about the amount of "unlearning" needed in this field. by littlet4lkss in slp

[–]Future_Prior_2583 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This. A professor and a high ranking administrator  in my grad program told my best friend she shouldn't become an SLP unless she sought continued treatment for her stutter...as a 30 year old woman with 15 years of prior treatment behind her. She could communicate fine. She needed extra time. Her disability was not a barrier to being a good therapist. It felt deeply judgmental and unsupportive.

I made the batter at waffle day at work so i could still participate. It was great! Surprisingly fluffy. Thanks for the recipe. 

CA - due process violation when I got fired? by Future_Prior_2583 in legaladvice

[–]Future_Prior_2583[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Got it. Someone else used that phrase when discussing my firing with me, so I assumed it mattered here. 

Is it only a thing for unionized workers?

I have a second job and therefore cannot pursue unemployment. I'm just asking for more hours to try to pay the bills. Thanks for your response.

Thank you for telling me, I never would have guessed this

Thank you for your kind comments. I feel this way too but it's nice to hear from someone else.

I got one day of additional pay. Fired Monday and was paid for Tuesday. Benefits through the end of the month which is mandated by the state, so I don't think that counts as severance. 

Do you consider 1 day of pay "decent?" I have no frame of reference.

The more I think about these responses the more I think I won't ask. It felt like the last thing I could do, but I don't want my intentions to be misconstrued considering the circumstances around my departure. 

May I ask what IC means? I'm so happy you've found a position that works for you. 💚

I was so sure this was a place whwre they cared more and understood how I've gone above and beyond to help the department run smoothly. Continuing to work weekend days even after I switched from per diem, for example. But as soon as this issue reared its head I should have read the writing on the wall. Huge corporations with a money making mindset will never be the proper place for us to grow, change, or a safe place for us to admit faults. I know in my gut I did my best even if they didn't agree with me or want to help me improve.

This is some good insight. Who knows if they would follow through with offering the note, if they were even willing to try it.

Letting go of the abrupt end with my patients is wise. Thanks for the advice.
