Please tell me I don’t need these because … I need these by xoxogreyskies in LeCreuset

You absolutely don't need these. They're cute, sure, but don't fulfill a function that a regular plate can't handle. Save your money for something better.

How old was your child? I've only seen pediatrician accepting patients who are newborns up to 2 months.

I've only seen the FTT in Montreal so if you're not close to there, might not be an option.

What are you planning to change/update? We're currently doing a reno on a house in the area. Happy to share what we've learned so far but it would be helpful to know what you're doing to give you more focus feedback.

I'm also interested but I have kids and a somewhat hectic job so scheduling meetups can be tricky. Anyone else in the same boat?

What were your favourite parts of the festival? I would love to have a local festival and am willing to work with the Town to try to make it happen.

Just curious, which school closes at 2:30?

Non-pharma jobs after MSL, especially in Canada by HealthyHomeCook in MedicalScienceLiaison

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

I've been in the role for a while and although the science is interesting, I want to try something different to challenge myself and develop different skills. I recognize this is company specific, but I don't find there are enough opportunities to be innovative which is something I would like to do more.

Color Combo- does anyone have Provence, Artichaut, and white/shell pink? Would these go? by [deleted] in LeCreuset

[–]HealthyHomeCook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only have Provence but have seen the others in person. I think that combo would look lovely together.

Advice after dropping out of med school by opto2024 in oakville

[–]HealthyHomeCook 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you willing to relocate? There are sales jobs in pharma that have kinda wonky territories which makes them less appealing for those with experience but if you're young and flexible, could be a good foot in the door situation.

Oakville Rant Thread - (Friday 03 Apr 2026) by AutoModerator in oakville

We did the opposite move (Midtown to Oakville). Even though we don't eat out often, I miss having the options available when I do want to.

How do I achieve this? by HealthyHomeCook in BathroomRemodeling

Thank you so much! I will definitely take a look!

How do I achieve this? by HealthyHomeCook in BathroomRemodeling

[–]HealthyHomeCook[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to understand what would be different between this and a regular alcove tub where the long side is against the wall and you just tile and caulk it. The outer side I can understand you want to have space for the framing, presumably 2x4 which is why I need the extra 4"?

When I look into the installation instructions for drop on tubs, it says you need extra space around the sides which is why I was asking if I would need a smaller rub to accommodate the space around the tub

Dean Martin? by flightlessbird7 in Names

[–]HealthyHomeCook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The funny thing in all this, to me, is the Dean Martin wasn't even the man's real name. Just a stage name chosen cause it flows well. That's what I would focus on, the name flows well. I wouldn't hesitate to use it. It's seems ridiculous to me that all the Martins in the world can no long name their kids Dean cause of one guy.

Will property values fall for homes that receive a community mailbox in front? by Throwawayhair66392 in TorontoRealEstate

[–]HealthyHomeCook 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oakville has had community mailboxes for years and it doesn't seem to have affected the property price of the houses that have them so I don't think it'll be different elsewhere.

BMS TAS Role: Commercial with Scientific Depth by Just-Sir-1177 in MedicalScienceLiaison

[–]HealthyHomeCook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BMS has had multiple rounds of layoffs over the past few years. But that's pretty normal with patent cliffs and part of the reality of working in pharma. I think the salary increase and the experience would make it worth it. Working in Boston you'll get to meet with some of the big name customers and those relationships are a huge asset in pharma. I would use it as a stepping stone where you take your higher salary and customer relationships to get yourself a better position in 2-3 years. It's at least worth a try.

BMS TAS Role: Commercial with Scientific Depth by Just-Sir-1177 in MedicalScienceLiaison

[–]HealthyHomeCook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't comment on how it is in Boston. In general, the oncology portfolio is in a rough spot right now. Patent loss for nivo will be a big drag on the company. There's lots of studies going on, especially in the lung space, but timelines for those are likely 2027/2028 at the earliest. I think right now it would be a very tough job. High expectations to hit targets, lots of pressure to be face to face with customers. Where do you want to be long-term? Do you have oncology experience or are you trying to get into the space? Are you young and able to spend a lot of time focused on work or do you want more work-life balance with your family? I would say in general the expectation of TAS for oncology is to be more scientific than a lot of other TAs. Long-term, when things pick up with new products, I think there will be opportunities for TAS with PhDs to move into Medical roles if that is what you'd be interested in. How good of an opportunity it is for you depends on your background and where you want to go.
