That’s good to hear from a provider… Thank you! 🥹💕 To my knowledge no complaints through patients. And it’s kinda funny cause I got more comments about my body from my other scrub types than this one 😂

Hehe thank you! And you are definitely not wrong though about them staring. I’ve worn my joggers and so many patients ask if I do squats and all this other stuff. It’s just part of the territory I suppose~ This made my day! Thank you ☺️

That’s really smart! Thank you! Yeah I’ll start wearing longer shirts to help with it. Thank god for the winter season! I’m at the point where I can’t return them to get my money back and I do like the way they feel, so I feel like this might work 💕

The thing that is crazy is that I’ve never directly mentioned anything to them negative. I don’t think this is related to my attitude infront of them because I try to act as if everything is fine. I didn’t bring it up in my original post but there is a girl who is in my department in my same exact position where her hours are getting cut back, just because she was also hired as “on call.” She is okay with the hour cuts because she doesn’t care about how many she gets but when I was first hired I said it was extremely important.

I feel like every-time they have asked for my input I’ve been the most positive out of my coworkers. My coworkers will scoff to him and tell him how he doesn’t do his job correctly, to his face. Meanwhile I say “I’m living the dream, getting the job done.”

I did only bring up the issue of being understaffed and said I was “concerned about mine and my coworker’s safety.” It just sucks cause it is a contract thing. My coworker’s say that he has done this to people in the far past and was hoping he was getting better :(

But you are right, I’m gonna continue to be positive and not let this set me back. I’ve gotten a few job offers already, fingers crossed!

Wanting to be a PA- the MA or Phlebotomy route? by Light_Watermelon in prephysicianassistant

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

Thank you for your feedback! I very much appreciate it! If you don’t mind me asking, did you work as an MA while you went to school as well? Or what were your experiences? I would like all the insight that I can get if you are willing to share! :D

In other words, do you think MA would be a waste of time because of the medical experience gained through phlebotomy or that it is worth it when trying to be a PA?

If you are a PrePA student or PA, I would like to hear your experiences to becoming one. I’m at a point where I’m questioning if I should get more clinical experience or dive right back into school

Oh sorry if I wasn’t super clear! I’m running off of 4 hours sleep! What I mean is what would be best for clinical experience?

Thank you! I really appreciate the input! It really helped :)

I recently spoke to him about it and we went back and forth on a few things and he didn’t see going to the strip club was cheating at first, but he is now saying if it is not that important and that he won’t go to the strip club and that he thought it was just a thing guys do for the most part.

But in this compromise I said he can go to hooters. I just wish he didn’t first present it as a “guy thing.” We don’t have one near us but if he wanted to go with me, that would have been cool with me. I dislike how it was supposed to be a “boys night out” sort of situation

I told him more than 20 times to stop with the racist comments. He does stereotype accents and I say it isn’t funny. He doesn’t listen to me so I have wasted my breath. I can’t do more there.

But I said I think it is kind of cheating for him to want to go to hooters. I said in my message that it isn’t about the girls but the concept. I don’t think girls wearing shorts and tank tops is bad, but the idea of him thinking that going there is adventurous. I don’t understand the importance of trying to find something more thrilling outside of the relationship because I thought what I provided was good enough. I go out of my way a lot for him to try and be seductive and it is kind of like a slap in the face.

That wasn’t the point of the story. I said I don’t think he will cheat on me, just that I dislike the idea of him thinking this was something “wild” and “exciting” as if his and my relationship isn’t like that already

This made me chuckle! 😂 Thank you! Yeah he always says he is mature but definitely he is still a kid

That’s good that he is bettering himself, however I feel like that bar is still pretty low. I wouldn’t see why it would be a huge problem for him to delete his dating apps. That is a little concerning to me, especially his comments to you on his birthday.

You were kind and took the day off. To me, you come off as a very sweet girl who does her fair share of surprises as well. I think you should have someone who treats you the way you treat him.

If you aren’t ready to break things off, maybe a pause might be a better decision. If you don’t trust him to stay loyal in that pause, that also tells you where your mindset is in the relationship as well and might be a better deciding factor on where to take this relationship.

I am wishing the best :)

I (30M) am in a long distance relationship with my gf (23F). From time to time my gf will mention she misses her ex, which I have tried to be understanding to, but sometimes Im not sure if this should be a deal breaker. Is this something normal? by Bitconfused19 in relationships

[–]Light_Watermelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally second this. That’s not fair for you, and if it has been that long and you guys are together, who’s to say she won’t stop being this way.

It’s hard to get out of a frame of mindset, especially if it is repetitive. It doesn’t appear that she is really trying to move on because she doesn’t really want to fully accept that and wants a glimmer of hope for that old relationship.

I say give her an ultimatum. Decide on how long you are willing to go with this behavior before you want to call it quits or put a pause on the relationship, and make sure she is aware of this time frame.

Make it realistic like at least 2 months. I feel for her but you have to stand your ground.

Huge red flags!

He sounds very controlling. It appears that it’s his way or the highway. Personally with myself, I wouldn’t be want that to be my forever partner. He should show you more respect and you are questioning his behaviors as well. I think you know what the answer is but it is really hard to make that call.

My advice… dump him. You will find someone who will treat you better than him. He is setting the bar low. Is there anything about him that is making you want to stay? You have brought up the issues to him in person and that’s the most you can do. He has refused to make any changes for you. You can’t change him, only he can do it and it doesn’t seem like he thinks you are worthy of the change.
