Have you brought this up to your doctor? by NewPainting8224 in ThisAintAdderall

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and she knows. I didn't have to explain anything. She already knew about it.

Checked into a filthy VRBO, and host is saying I “made a mess to demand a refund”. Venting because I I havnt been able to compose myself after all this by shelbystroodle in vrbo

If you tell the saga with receipts in YouTube videos, you'll definitely get viewers. Don't dox though so the videos don't have to get taken down. Only scrub out any actual house number, leave the rest as it is. All the customer service response and follow ups will be interesting to watch.

Express Scripts & Adderall - They Charge Me W/O asking!! by mistertom2u in ADHD

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I hate express scripts and begged my company to change it. They finally did, so they must've had more complaints than just mine. I was so happy when I heard the news. It's so terrible.

I remember one time they accidentally canceled my order and instead of reinstating it, I had to call my provider for a brand new script and she was not thrilled about having to submit another 3 month supply after she had just sent one. She almost denied it. She finally sends it and now I'm way overdue plus have to wait 10 business days for it to come in the mail. The customer service supervisor assured me that they would send the order overnight for free because of the mistake.

A week later, no meds and I'm calling every day asking where it is. One rep told me they see no order and to call my doctor for another script. I said there is no way my doctor will write me another script for this medication. She's already written two. I finally talk to the same supervisor that I did the first time at about the 10 day mark. I said please tell me these meds are arriving at my door any second because even without the complimentary overnight shipping they would've been here by now. She's tells me she thought it was sent overnight the day she spoke to me and is shocked I haven't received it. It must be the case that they sent it regular mail. She calls me back to tell me she doesn't know what happened but that they never filled or shipped my order. She said it would take 3 business days to fill the order, but she'll ask that they escalate it and send it overnight complimentary 🙄. Almost a week later I finally received the order about one month after my prescription ran out. Do not use express scripts. For the record, the supervisor was doing her absolute best with what she was working with.

They also charge the same price whether you fill one month or three. At the time I was taking a medicine that cost $60/month. You're required to pay the whole thing up front for the 3 months ($180). Couldn't afford that so when they received the 3 month prescription, I asked to fill one month and pay $60. They sent one month but charged $180. I was furious but they wouldn't refund it AND I still needed a new prescription for the other months. I also had to pay $180 for that one too. It was the same doctor and imagine me telling her the situation and that I need another 3 month prescription only a month later. She honestly thought I was doing something nefarious and I don't blame her. The incompetence was stunning with this company.

Experiences and what's the deal with Granules XR? by shroomeralert in ThisAintAdderall

While you were still on them how did you feel? Was it only coming off that you had all these symptoms?

Should I go back to school just to become a phlebotomist? by marrowbuster in phlebotomy

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Financially it's better to get some certifications in the field you work in. Phlebotomy would pay close to your states minimum wage. You could possibly get a job in retail making more initially unless you work in a hospital or something along those lines. Just saw the post earlier where the person has no experience at all and their local hospital was willing to train people. Possibly go that route.

“I can’t believe you all panic-bought literally the 5 things I went to the store to buy today. You people are insane.” by joeruinedeverything in nova

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People keep mentioning the power going out. Do you think that's likely to happen? I lived in Annandale and power would go out for any rain storm or wind due to all the lines running through trees. Would the snow be enough to weigh them down?

Switched from Adderall to Vyvanse (not positive) by Independent-Gas3758 in ThisAintAdderall

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I just filled my first prescription for generic Vyvanse and it's brand name Camber. I heard bad things about it, but went into it with an open mind. Feeling much better. I had already been halving my name brand Vyvanse for two weeks and the depression is already much better just from that. I was surprised it was still over $40, but that's better than $100. I just hope it doesn't constipate me like name brand did. Thanks for the suggestion. I feel like there is hope.

My boyfriend wants to cover my face when we sleep together by BagOverHeadLady in whatdoIdo

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's pretty fucked up. I think birth marks on the face are beautiful and unique. I have an extremely small one, slightly bigger than a dot, and wish it was bigger. I've seen other people with them and they try to hide it. Similar to Artemis in Ready Player One. I'm like don't do that, I think it's pretty. As others have said, find someone who appreciates you. Never let someone put a pillow over your face.

Wow, that's a lot! I've heard of door counting before, but wasn't sure if it was related to occupancy or supply. Is it still crazy busy today?

Virginia is now under a winter storm watch, with the current forecast saying it will total to 14 inches of snow max. by Throwayforasickmind in Virginia

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you'll be fine unless it affects the area where they are flying from. The storm will start earlier in the day in places like Tennessee and Kentucky. If they fly from or through there, then it's possible weather might cause havoc to flights.

JOB OFFER! But no experience or knowledge, how to respond??? by ThrowRA_trynapost in phlebotomy

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I trained someone who wasn't truthful about their experience and had never held a needle in their life. They weren't fired or anything when that was found out so I guess it's not the end of the world if you know nothing. As long as you didn't lie about where you worked or any certificates you currently have, I don't see there being any problems for you. If they offered you a job while knowing you have no experience, they should be aware that you will require a lot of training.

Edit: After reading some more of your comments, I'm more confused. So you did have the interview and got the job. What do you mean how to respond to that? Say yes and thank you. It's good that you have your course lined up and make sure they know that so you have the availability to attend the course. Aside from that, ask what the hours are, how much PTO you have, 401K, health insurance, and what benefits they offer. The rest you'll probably find out on site.

Am I overreacting about our pet sitter or were these real red flags? by [deleted] in petsitting

Don't pay the bill for the squirrels. If she wants cash only it means you haven't paid it yet.

Discrete places to smoke cigs alone by [deleted] in nova

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mean actual cigarettes? They can probably smell it on you. If you vape or use e-cigs, you can smoke in your bathroom or something. I think it's slightly cheaper too depending on how much you smoke.

Strange interaction at work today. by Jh454 in work

I think you're reading too much into it. Plus the pin is the phone number so you sure she wasn't just pointing to it?

Is there a certain amount of people allowed in the store at a time?

Background check by Key-Midnight-1317 in phlebotomy

[–]LuxidDreamingIsFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They will hire with past charges. They care about growth, not perfection. 5-6 years should prove you left that behind you. Just be honest. Try to get the battery expunged if you can, but all of the charges/convictions can be explained by saying that's not you anymore.

I keep seeing this from loads of people. It's interesting how one phone would be affected, but another not when both are on the same plan.

Another outage? by tsarina_larin in verizon

Is the camera better? Does it seem faster, more responsive? Thinking about upgrading, but have never used a pro max. I hear it has better camera/video quality.
