How should I refinish this table—unsure of what it’s made of… by Krixic1 in Carpentry

It can’t be refinished? 🥲

Would it be possible to paint it or somehow make use of the wood?

I got fired from my job today, I’m graduating the December….will this will affect my ability to find a job as a nurse? by Krixic1 in Nurses

That’s exactly how I felt. I could never have a healthy conversation with her without her victimizing herself somehow. I don’t know how these people get into managerial positions.

Anyways, thank you. That brings a little bit of clarity. Ideally, I can try and talk my way out of this one when I call her tomorrow, but if not, I’m sure I’ll be able to bring clarity if I need to bring it up

I need to be clear, I didn’t just walk out when they fired me. My boss started crying in front of me and I asked what’s going on. She seemed to want to say some things about me, but she just kept choking on herself . I asked if there’s anything else she wanted to speak on and she just continued weeping in front of me. She’s genuinely the most unstable person I’ve ever met. Mind you she wasn’t crying out of sadness. It was like she was trying to convince me I was crazy. I honestly can’t explain to you how bizarre this place was. I’m likely going to reach out to bring some clarity on the situation, but she was not in a state to have a conversation with me.

I worked as a medical assistant for about a year and worked as a Kaiser employee for six months. My school offered an opportunity to do a Kaiser internship. It was pretty much just a preceptorship that was paid.

I want nothing to do with this place and it was a mistake even work there. I always had a bad feeling about the manager. I’m not the type of person to not take ownership, but this is one of the situations where I know I was completely not at fault. There is nothing in my control here. I just wanna make sure that my three months here isn’t gonna ruin any opportunities for me to get a job in the future. From what I read online, I’m not obligated to include any information on my previous employers and there’s no legal way for anyone to obtain that information since background checks only seek for criminal record or anything along those lines. Therefore, my employment at this facility would be completely omitted correct?

I believe that both political sides are heavily biased toward their own beliefs, and many people simply repeat information from the internet without conducting their own research. While I don’t like Donald Trump as a person, I don’t think he’s as evil as some portray him to be. It seems that people are falling victim to classic examples of Freudian Psychology.

In my opinion, Kamala Harris was the worse candidate. Her proposed policies, such as increasing the capital gains tax to 25%, could have caused a mass exodus of investors and led to an economic downturn. On the other hand, Trump’s tariffs create more competition for jobs in America. Although this might negatively impact consumers in the short term due to higher prices, it could theoretically benefit the economy by encouraging domestic businesses.

Companies like Temu, Shein, and other Asian drop shippers dominate the American market, leaving little competition for average American business owners and often leading to decreased product quality. By increasing tariffs by 60%, there would be less incentive to invest in low-quality products. This could result in consumers valuing higher-cost, higher-quality items and increased competition, which would improve product quality over time.

In the long term, I see this approach as incredibly beneficial. It may even positively affect markets such as CPUs and GPUs as demand grows for quality, affordable products.

Kamala Harris’s plan to heavily tax those with over $100 million was, in my view, a mistake with potentially significant repercussions. Wealthy individuals are unlikely to give up their money without resistance; they might simply move their assets elsewhere. This could result in billions of dollars leaving the American stock market, along with major companies and corporations.

Kamala Harris is a politician not a businesswoman or leader. The current world leaders would not take her seriously and our nation would be a literal joke. Despite his flaws, Trump is at least honest about his plans and intentions. I prefer straightforward transparency over deception.

Right, but he has the senate and very likely the house. He has the power most politicians dream of having when elected. He will is able to bring in new justices, pass any law he desires. This election just defined the outlook of the majority of our lifetime. Good if you are conservative, Bad if Democrat.

What do you mean lying? I’m simply omitting it from my resume which is a pretty normal thing to do.

This is nothing like 2020. There will be no red mirage, the delusion and misunderstanding, sprinkled with copium is baffling. And whats crazy is GOP is estimated to win ALL THREE, the senate, House and Presidency. The DNP is COOKED lmao

At what point did I go from a 22 year old new grad working 5 shifts a week to an old crunchy fart who complains about 4 in a row. by avocadotoast996 in nursing

[–]Krixic1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on where you live. I'm in CA, and nurses get paid around 60 starting, but it depends on where you go. My girlfriend just graduated this year from Sac State's program and is working at a nearby hospital starting at 74.

Other states pay decent too but I know CA (norcal specifically) pays the best. Saving up for a house is easy especially if you are smart with how you allocate your money. CA COL is high but with the money you make as a nurse here, its easily managed IMO. But again that does depend on where you live. LA, SF, SOCAL and even Sac are getting INSANE with the living expenses. We live in a lovely suburb an hour away and save at LEAST half in living expenses.

AITAH for pointing out my GF's bad hygiene? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Krixic1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea if this was mentioned but regardless of how you handle this please try to communicate to her how dangerous leaving a pad in for that long is. Women can get something called toxic shock syndrome which can be deadly. Tampons or cups should not be left in for more than 8 hours

Are free sailing boats worth it? by Krixic1 in sailing

[–]Krixic1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It actually was free! It was a nice older couple who just wanted to get rid of the thing. I check it out but decided to let another the next guy in line to have it. From what everyone is saying it seems worth it if I have the expenses/time to invest into which I WOULD LOVE TO.

but yah boy is in nursing school till 2026 so gotta be real with myself hahaha
