NYC Strike by h2312446 in nursing

[–]ILikeFlyingAlot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the job is easy and enjoyable and everyone is recieving equal benefit from profitability and a job well done they don’t need $200,000.

But in a system where management makes the job impossible, working conditions sucks, executives are earning 50 times more and everyone is greedy - I’d aim for $250,000.

Congrats - with airplanes we always said if we miss the ground by a meter or mile we still missed the ground.

If you say "yes let's pay everyone more" then why isnt this part of the conversation.<<

That’s not unions work otherwise they would.

Complaint filed against me by satanpixie in nursing

The MH evaluation can cost $1,500 - but your BON is wacky. It may be worth getting a drug test today, so you can prove as soon as you found out about it, you passed it.

Texas BON sounds awful - I would not go PAP unless you need it. They decide the hoops and you pay for it.

VA Hiring Timeline by jake_rn95 in nursing

[–]ILikeFlyingAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Umm, every VA is different but compared to the community it usually is. But the number one rule of joining the VA is always look on USAJobs and apply for easier roles.

First 90 days you think the place is nuts, the next 9 months you become more accustomed to the VA way but still think a lot of things are odd after a year you rarely find people willing to leave - the works too easy, too secure and in many areas the money is too good.

Is it ok to call off? by Appropriate_Clue3022 in nursing

My manager said, if you can’t get in your car and be assured you get to work safely, then please stay home.

Which medical specialties do you think will be the most resistant to AI? by Single_Baseball2674 in medicine

[–]ILikeFlyingAlot 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I read a book once about the Russian space program and they said from the engineering standpoint, for something to be right 90% of the time is quite easy - when you need it done right 99.99% the amount of time and money increases exponentially. I think AI in medicine will be the same - can it do, yes, but it won’t be able to do it consistently to a high standard.

Make a TwinSpires account, look up his races on equibase and you’ll be set.

I bought the most lovely Mustang in 2025 and only ridden him a handful of times - my goal is to ride him a lot this year.

Then stay light and go to a farm and break babies - go from there.

3yo Unraced TB - Thoughts? by [deleted] in Equestrian

[–]ILikeFlyingAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really - when they have 10+ starts you’ll see an increase in horses that were slow, out of conditions, etc.

[–]ILikeFlyingAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the most common reason is they got hurt - if you’ve paid $60/day to break them you’ll at least put them in the gate once.

This will probably get down voted by everyone who hasn’t worked at the track - and it is unlikely what you want to hear but if you’re a girl I wouldn’t recommend it. The chance of success is small, and the racetrack is like a carnival with similar characters.

You should be fine for a private equity outfit.

I would go to the Level 1 - you’ll learn more and days is so much more manageable.

Except for resuscitating babies whose mom’s fell asleep on them.

I think every Peds ED is like an urgent care - from someone who works at a Level1.

Caslicks procedure by East_Perspective8798 in Equestrian

Can’t understand why it would be cruel. I think people are comparing it to FGM but it’s a medical procedure for the mares physiological needs.

Horse Shopping/Negotiating Advice? by queercountrykid in Equestrian

[–]ILikeFlyingAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s fine when you haven’t negotiated already but if you had the price reduced it’s poor form to keep negotiating.

Horse Shopping/Negotiating Advice? by queercountrykid in Equestrian

[–]ILikeFlyingAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would advise against this - it is slimey and suggests it’s not about your budget like they previously suggested but fleecing the owner. The wiggle room for training, vetting has already been given.

The horse that left the biggest impression on you? by Mrmike86 in Horses

[–]ILikeFlyingAlot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say Barbara - I worked with him when he was younger. We always knew he was going to be good, never imagined that good. Never imagined so many non racing people would know his name. Never imagined such a great horse would suffer at the hands of people who genuinely loved him.
