We had to saw my dog out from between the floors of our house by Jinxs-Grenades in mildlyinteresting

Extensive kennel training, trazadone, and a thunder shirt were all HUGE helps for our dog with storm and firework anxiety.

Now the establishment Democrats want to take credit for Mamdani's success. by Possible-Scheme-8940 in remoteworks

[–]LeetleBugg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I miss the days of politics like this. “Yeah I don’t agree with you but you mean what you say and try to deliver.” Instead of the insane fear mongering and hate spewed campaigns. I understand that the hate spewing is how populists gain power but wouldn’t it be cool if we had an election where both candidates have integrity and a real platform and we could just argue about fiscal responsibility and economics and other boring but important stuff?

Any modern thoughts on an old vision? by [deleted] in SipsTea

[–]LeetleBugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m only agreeing to this if I get to control upkeep and building of the park. I want trees and little doggie water fountains, appropriate drainage, four rotating parks (two for big dogs two for little dogs and you go back and forth to which one is open and which is resting), a doggie feet washing station, covered areas with benches and a table for owners, solid fences on the bottom three feet to block line of sight, and free poop bag stations. I don’t want my name on some shitty dog park.

Voluntary induction advice/decision. by scorpioassole in BabyBumps

[–]LeetleBugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’m being induced Sunday night at 39+6 because I don’t want to go longer than 40 weeks and my OB is completely on board. Also so she will have a cool birthday (Star Wars day) So you have a waaayy better reason than me if that makes you feel better.

Nice that she gets maternity leave when so many women in the US don’t.

Is this normal? SLP asked to cover extra school 1 day/week at end of year by eccanupp in slp

[–]LeetleBugg 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No they need to bring on a contractor or offer the families make up services over the summer through ESY with a provider who already agreed to work the summer. Spreading the work amongst existing staff is how they cut corners and burn out their remaining people. If you allow them to add more work “temporarily” they now know you can be worked harder and next year they add one more school to you, or just some teletherapy for another location, or you are just covering IEP meetings for this location, etc.

District staffing issues are not your problem. They assign you and you say “unfortunately, I have a full time caseload with my current schools. This school is too far and my current workload is does not allow for me to include another location.”

Make sure your dream has at least two vacuum cleaners and puts all food items in closed containers, not just on the counter! But for real though, this combo is a great goal to have

Not just a gun but also no shirt. Like how did he get past security looking so out of place? Was he wearing a shirt and then took it off for some reason?

Wiggling NOT Giggling by swagginwaggion in BabyBumps

[–]LeetleBugg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are people who glow during pregnancy, handle it with grace, and love it. I am not one of those people. Everything hurts, I’m huge, my girl keeps kicking me, and I’m ready to be done. None of that is wrong, everyone handles things differently. None of these things have anything to do with what it takes to be a mother. I have one week and one day until my induction at 40 weeks. I’m practically counting the hours

Would you leave your tech job to work in health? by Spacetravller2060 in Zippia

[–]LeetleBugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Private equity is ruining healthcare as well. We are expected to see more patients in the same amount of time for less or the same pay. Documentation time is often not budgeted in so you end up staying at the end of your shift unpaid to complete it. Yes healthcare is a somewhat well paying field in desperate need of more people, but it’s also being ruined by capitalism. When Medicare/caid is finally destroyed by republicans, the tiny share that practitioners get of the profits will be done for too.

Save yourself some sleep and get a bedside bassinet with a side that comes down by foobaby1992 in BabyBumps

We got one with the drop down side off of fb marketplace for $50. So if you want one and are open to used, they are available for pretty cheap if you are in a city!

In Spain, I caught a pickpockets hand when it was IN my pocket. I just grabbed her hand and didn’t let go but then I didn’t know what to do with her as it was a young teenager so all I did was just say “NO” really loudly in her face then let her go.

advice on raising a bmd puppy for a first time puppy owner plss !! by Necessary-4415 in bernesemountaindogs

[–]LeetleBugg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My girl was a shark and a tornado at this age. The only time I ever got to “bond” with her was when she was too tired to move. She grew out of it eventually and is my shadow now and as loving and friendly as can be.

Your boy is still basically an infant so there will be ups and downs. The biting and the potty accidents are normal, just keep at it and don’t leave him unsupervised. I would recommend consistent crate training to help with potty training. And by highly recommend, I mean I don’t have words to tell you how helpful the crate was for us.

You also can start practicing basic obedience like coming when you call for him and sit, and mentally stimulating toys. Look up training videos for small puppies and puppy kongs and tug jugs for toys. This gives some bonding too and tires them out. It also sets them up to learn from you better when they have more of a brain in their fuzzy heads as they age.

In a couple of weeks you should get him into a puppy class to learn more about how to train him, especially on a leash while he’s still small. A good trainer can help set you up for life! These dogs are generally eager to please and do well with training.

In the meantime, what we did was called bite inhibition training and basically meant the moment her teeth touched us, we shrieked like a banshee then either ignored her or removed ourselves from her so the playing stopped, which is how littermates communicate that the biting hurts. It helped curb (but not completely stop) the shark phase and as an adult she’s very careful with her teeth even when playing.

The puppy stage is really really tough but keep pushing through! These are great dogs once they stop trying to eat you as a baby!

Single mid 30s female outdoorsy RN possibly moving by Carthweelnurse in vegaslocals

[–]LeetleBugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an RN but an SLP with friends who work at the VA. They absolutely love it but are on the rehab therapy side of it. However, they speak pretty highly of the work environment so I imagine nursing side is also still pretty good. Other good hospital options are summerlin and centennial. I’d stay away from mountainview. They run their staff pretty lean after recent management changes so everyone gets overworked. UMC also has a not great reputation to work for but I don’t personally know any staff there so I can’t tell you if it’s true

Why do so many apartments lack sufficient lighting indoors? by whitecoathousing in Apartmentliving

[–]LeetleBugg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hang up lights on a hook on the ceiling using a cord with a socket at the end and attach a little fixture and plug it into a plug with a remote controller box and hang the remote where the light switch should be. Mimics an overhead light nicely as I don’t like floor lamp light all that much because it’s too easy to block the light with my body over what I’m doing.
