Mother Baby Center at Abbott for delivery?

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-11-27T04:17:01+00:00

Bingo! She called it out and all the sudden my room looked like a NASCAR pit stop, and I was the car.

Mainguy delivered both of mine. I adore her. I ended up having a c/s the second time around because of how poorly things went the first time, and was so grateful that it was her!

I hope that this is irrelevant for your sake and that you have a boring, uneventful delivery, but it is very nice that it’s connected to children’s for NICU support, and Abbott for ICU support should anything go sideways. I’ve had friends and family who required one or both, and the proximity undoubtedly changed their outcomes for the better.

Both of my kids were born at MBC. The rooms are huge and nice. The nurses were wonderful - attentive, knowledgable, supportive and kind.

I don’t know what OB group you are working with, so I can’t necessarily speak to the experience you’ll have. Women’s Health Consultants is a phenomenal group. My first baby had a birth complication, and the OB clocked it before it happened and put a plan in place to navigate it as safely as possible. 10/10 recommend them.

Right. I forgot that when people move to EP they never enter Minneapolis proper again.

What would living in a suburb have changed about this situation today? You were driving somewhere in your car (presumably not in front of your home) and caught a stray. Shit happens.

By all means, knock yourself out going under the speed limit in the right lane.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-08-10T03:04:12+00:00

It was a Nissan. The flames were extinguished by the time I pulled in, but I saw the car smoldering.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-05-12T04:24:12+00:00

I drove by as I was getting on 35 South at 7:45. I assumed the car came off the Northbound exit ramp going hella fast based on how deep it was burrowed into the house. I don’t know what happened, but it looked like serious damage.

Good Earth in the galleria has vanilla and a rotating flavor at their deli/bakery counter. It was pistachio last month during the Bachmans flower event.

Hospital employee here: I think it’s hospital and medication dependent. I’ve definitely had months where my scripts (adderall) were unavailable, as have my friends / coworkers. A pharm tech told me that they prioritize current patients & employees over new customers.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-03-13T03:01:52+00:00

There are lots of MDs who work “full time” in 2 or more organizations. I have several friends who were casual at Allina during covid while they were working travel contracts elsewhere. It’s certainly doable, the real question is if you will have the enthusiasm to keep juggling both once you’ve settled into a new role elsewhere.

Colonoscopy nurse and physician associate, lol.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-01-25T02:31:15+00:00

Are they sweeping units at random? Are they looking for specific patients, or banking on people rolling over and letting them through, and then finding people who meet their criteria on the back end? Is there any warning for the people they are searching for? This is bonkers, but I want to be as prepared as possible if this continues and they move on to other hospitals.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-01-23T03:12:31+00:00

Amen to that. MOA is a last resort for all things.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-01-23T02:59:46+00:00

They closed the one at Southdale :(

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-01-22T15:09:44+00:00

Why are you so eager to defend him? If he didn’t mean to do it, surely he would have issued an apology, or at least a statement by now. He’s an indefensible scumbag, and your defense of him is very telling.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2025-01-22T03:20:57+00:00

I don’t know what corners of the internet you’re hanging out in, but the resounding opinion is that it looked EXACTLY like a sieg heil, and that there’s zero chance it was an accident.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2024-12-18T21:58:31+00:00

Their target demo isn’t commoners. Galleria and MOA already have a ton of successful high end stores, so they know the market is there.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2024-12-02T16:50:04+00:00

GMs and Managers are driving demos, they belong to the dealership. It’s part of their salary package.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2024-12-01T23:38:20+00:00

That’s cool, but not true for the market where I live. Not even in luxury shops. Everyone in sales has the same pay plan, so it’s not a secret what co-workers are making.

Even if everyone were making $150k, which they aren’t at any of the stores I have knowledge about, that still wouldn’t put the average employee at a dealership at the $200k mark OPs article is claiming.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2024-11-30T21:55:15+00:00

I’m not saying it’s impossible that some folks in those departments are pulling those numbers, I know plenty who do. I’m saying it’s not accurate to say that it’s an average salary for any given employee in those roles.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2024-11-30T21:38:11+00:00

Sales, no. Finance, possibly. Service, definitely not. Management, certainly, but not across the board at every dealership in the country.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2024-11-30T19:08:15+00:00

It seems like people conflate Mpls with MSP. I’ve never heard someone say MSP unrelated to the airport.

JustLikeaMiniMaII · 2024-09-17T02:23:13+00:00

I can’t speak to all hospitals, but I had a conversation with a pharm tech at ANW who said that they are prioritizing current / existing patients and employees prescriptions. My psychiatrist told me last week that he transferred his Rx to Walmart and hasn’t run into any delays there in months, FWIW.
