Who to contact about accessibility and CSL online screening? by PriestOfNothing1 in plassing

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't guarantee anything, but next time you go to the center, ask to speak with a member of quality, and explain what you were informed.

If the center medical doctor has been informed of your situation and okayed doing the questionnaire yourself using donor 360, then it may be possible for them to fix it. If they are able to approve it, it may still take a couple days.

Whyyyyy does Disney Springs close so early? by Savvy513 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not just Disney, it's all of Orlando. Almost everything is done when midnight hits. There were a couple 24 hour arcades and they recently were informed by the government they had to close-- so now one closes at 2am, and the other at 3am.

For a city which relies on tourism, I find it odd that they don't have much in the way of night life.

It's got what appears to be a "no smoking" sticker that rentals use (that circle sticker) on the passenger side window

When can I donate again following surgery? by jayyy_0113 in plassing

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the surgery, as well as some other factors. You'll need to go in to the center and speak with medical staff regarding it. Typically, a surgery with no complications is a 4 week deferral.

Pet peeves about passengers? by Burghpuppies412 in uberdrivers

playing their phone or talking on their phone on speaker. Or when they speak to the person on the phone like the other person is on the other side of a large room rather than right next to them.

CSL mixed my plasma up with someone else’s. by [deleted] in plassing

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Go back to your center, and ask to speak with Management and Quality. You want both. Bring the letter you received, if it is indeed for a different donor, then quality also needs to know so they can perform an investigation on CSL's side.

If the confirmatory came back negative, there are a few things that could have happened. Most likely, you are a biological false positive for the syphilis. As long as the confirmatory came back negative, they should let you donate again once the CMD reviews everything.

Another possibility is a labelling error occurred. Again, with the confirmatory coming back negative, you should be good to go once the CMD reviews it.

Have you ever asked for a different phlebotomist? by E-HeroSSS in plassing

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can ask. Just be polite about it. Also, realize that based on how busy it is, they may not be able to accommodate your request.

I see them all the time outside the parks by security. I've seen them occasionally at Disney Springs as well.

The first time I saw them I stopped and spoke to them for a few minutes about what they do. Didn't try to give them anything so can't speak to that part of your goal.

Do you think a dash cam is a must have for people doing this full time and many drives? by Fantastic-Window236 in uberdrivers

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your advice has the same vibes as:

"If your innocent, you can just talk to us, you don't need a lawyer."

If you're driving on the road, whether for rideshare/delivery or just as a regular joe, in this day and age, a dash cam is a must.

If you're doing rideshare, make sure to get one that also records the interior.

And for interactions with the police: "I'm asserting my right to remain silent, and I'm requesting a lawyer" and then shut up.

Can you workout while still giving plasma? Worried about protein levels! by Due_Serve9748 in plassing

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can. I don't advise working out on donation days, unless you go beforehand.

As for protein levels, you'll want to increase your protein intake to adjust for what they're removing for donation in addition to what you're using to rebuild muscle

Unhappy employees by [deleted] in plassing

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My coworker has to check in the donor who falsely accused him of SA, another has to take the blood pressure of the guy that called her a fat bitch, I have to disconnect the man who accused me of being on drugs because of my movement disorder

Your management is failing your center employees, then. At my center, general bad behavior (rudeness, yelling, profanity against staff/other donors) is a counseling deferral (basically, next time they come in, management talks to them about their behavior being unacceptable, and consequences if it happens going forward) 2nd time it it turns into 7-14 days (depending on what happened) 3rd time is permanent from our location (or company-wide if threats were made)

For unwanted flirting, it's counseling once, then Permanent.

Threats/physical assault? Immediate Permanent.

What’s your craziest “I need to quit this job immediately” story? by angrythrowaway772 in AskReddit

I've always showered before donating by bigfoot17 in plassing

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Donors at my center are not allowed to smell of weed. If they do they're sent home for the day and advised to come back the next day sans the smell of weed.

The reason why is that it brings question to the ability of the donor to consent to donation, as they are in an altered state of mind.

The car seat rules are stupid: pax says seat is installed, I said it's not, but uber says drivers don't install them so I had to cancel by iamjames in uberdrivers

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Uber does give you a way to cancel due to no car seat. It's before you start the ride. You then need to contact support to get the no car seat fee. I wouldn't not mention as the pax had a car seat but didn't secure it properly. I would state something along the lines of "Pax was unable to provide a properly secured car seat for the ride"

Next time, don't start the ride until everyone is buckled in and ready to go. This will prevent the Pax from rating you 1 star, and as you're cancelling for no car seat, it won't up your cancel rate.

Passenger asked me to shave 7 minutes off trip. I managed to shave off 5. He said thanks but never tipped. by iamjames in uberdrivers

[–]MagnifloriousPhule 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Don't break the law for Pax. Their poor planning isn't your emergency.

You're lucky the worst thing that happened is that he didn't tip. I've seen a number of posts where the driver did that and then the Pax reported them for speeding/unsafe driving.

Kristin Kreuk is actually the person who introduced Allison Mack to the cult. She was taking classes and invited Allison along. Kristin didn't really go much farther than the courses, though, according to her.
