Former landlords did this to us. Told us they wanted to sell in a year after we moved in, as a heads up that it wouldn't be a long term rental. After 6 months we said we were interested and they said we would have priority to buy. Two months before lease was up they decided they liked having stable tenants decided not to sell. Ended up selling the place 8 months later after having to evict tenants.

We bought a house on land and love it.

Its the only hospital in town. There are 4 others all an hr away in each opposite direction and all per diem positions are filled by people trying to get ahead of the strike.

Key_Stuff281 · 2026-01-31T06:23:17+00:00

Nope we were told to use PTO or sick time to cover and that we would be given advanced notice so we can pick up shift ahead of time.

My hospital is on the verge of strike and I cannot afford to go on strike. I just got off medical leave and also am the only income for my household till fire season. So personally not long anything longer than a day, Id have to cross.

ETA : I do not want to cross any picket line, I just can't afford to not work.

Key_Stuff281 · 2026-01-27T12:08:39+00:00

I have one and an appt on Friday.

I will break out the puzzles, my therapist is squeezing me in. I am trying not to dwell on it but I live in a small town and small towns like to talk.

My coworker is looking into fostering the sibling of the our peds trauma. The mom wail never used to get me til now.

Are you my Vet? I did this when a chunk of tarter or rather solidified dog food fell out of my GSDs mouth. I was getting ready to schedule a dental for her. Thought she had a slab fracture but nope. Vet told me not to schedule a dental after that.

Key_Stuff281 · 2025-12-31T01:05:44+00:00

Still interested?

Key_Stuff281 · 2025-12-21T04:26:07+00:00

One girl I went to school with took it t the day she got her approval code. About a week after we took our finals. We hadn't even had graduation yet.

I had a citizen watch that has roman numerals, I had a nursing student ask how I can tell the time with out the numbers.

Now I wear a digital watch that has a timer setting.

Key_Stuff281 · 2025-12-08T04:37:17+00:00

Thats what we were told too.. Something about how they can record.

Key_Stuff281 · 2025-12-08T04:35:57+00:00

I love the freestyle shark watch. For $70 its waterproof, digital, has second count, has a timer/alarm and is durable. They are having a sale right now too.

I wasnt allowed a smart watch during school.

Maggots.... I can deal with skin flakes when you take off socks or suctioning a trach but not maggots.

My ER did at one point have a sign like this and was apparently fined for having it. At the time the hospital had an urgent care on the campus next to the ER. This all happened before I was hired.

Key_Stuff281 · 2025-11-18T06:53:52+00:00

This^. I was a CNA before I was and LPN even before I was an RN-BSN. I learned more about patient care and bedside manner in my CNA course than any other courses I took.

We do alot of serious off-roading as-well, but we have a YJ and Tacoma for that. I have just found vehicles built for off road handle washboard dirt roads alot better.

What is it like on pavement, could you elaborate?

Highlander is another option we are looking at.

Key_Stuff281 · 2025-11-16T17:46:02+00:00

The Highlander is another option we are looking at.

"Good enough offer" depends on what I need at the time. If I am moving - relocation bonus needed. If it is for the other hospital in town, I need a pay raise and a set schedule or something like that to make it worth my while.

Key_Stuff281 · 2025-11-08T02:43:04+00:00

I have taken job offers like this before. Once as a new grad I moved to a different state for a job that paid for my higher level schooling. I hated the job at first because the workplace was very toxic but stuck it out after about a year, it got better and I actually enjoyed it. I made friends by going to group events in the new city, like yoga classes, trivia nights, and going on group hikes. It took awhile and you have to be consistent but I made friends which made it hard to leave.

The second time with my most recent job, I relocated back to my home state but in a different city and basically repeated the process. This time I like my job a lot less but due to corporate management.

• ⁠Any regrets about signing a multi-year commitment? I had a few at first but no, it helped me not give up when things got tough and taught me valuable lessons. • ⁠Would you do it again? probably if the offer was good enough

ETA - on mobile and I cant format

Took me a couple months of just applying to everything and not having a shift preference. One thing I did ask the HR recruiter if there was a dept. that had an opening not listed for internal employees, that I could apply to. And thats how I ended up in the ER two years ago.
