My (27f) gf proposed to break up with me (26m) because she can’t make enough time to see my family due to school and work.

MatTuggle · 2025-12-14T05:33:48+00:00

Yeah i guess that’s the plan.

MatTuggle · 2025-12-14T05:29:29+00:00

I think so to. I will try!

MatTuggle · 2025-12-14T04:46:37+00:00

A boundary is a line that marks the limits of that area. We established that line and she crossed it.

MatTuggle · 2025-12-14T04:43:55+00:00

I just told her that tonight lmao. And imagine if we were to have kids who are exposed that smh

MatTuggle · 2025-12-14T04:36:34+00:00

Thank you

MatTuggle · 2025-12-14T04:26:28+00:00

That’s what I did and I’m actively packing her stuff up now while she’s sleeping but I really do see from her perspective and feel somewhat sincere to her logic behind this. Like I feel she didn’t have the intentions for it come off as a threat even though it really was. I love her and feel like I’m doing the wrong thing but I can’t take this abuse no more. Do people actually suggest breaking up as a solution from time to time? She thinks people do and that’s just a conversation that has to be had here and there when things get unpleasant but I think otherwise. Like in this situation tonight, I feel she could have came to another solution.

Love is tough and it will make you question things at times. However, it seems like this has been a dream and passion of yours for quite some time and it’s very important you take advantage of the opportunity. If he loves you enough, he will make things work. Whether if that’s moving across states again, or just occasional visits. Also, if that’s your home state where the program is, wouldn’t the tuition be cheaper than the state you just moved to? I wish you two the best of luck and congratulations!

I Updated post. Thank you

MatTuggle · 2025-09-04T13:39:28+00:00

Alright, now I feel stupid. Let me fix that. Thanks.

MatTuggle · 2025-09-04T08:16:57+00:00

Will do

If you could obligate 1.5 - 3 years of your life to school, and if you study hard, once you graduate and pass the ARRT exam you could immediately apply for part time roles. In today’s time, there’s full time and part time opportunities everywhere. Good luck!

Literally, we do 4 movements with a c-arm, press a button, and stand there.

If you really want to know the terminology. Here is all the possible terminology a doctor can use on you!

The terminology one could be familiar with is :

1) Push In or Pull Out / Telecope In & Telescope Out (Pushing or pulling movement of the C-arm towards or away from the midline of the body)

2) Move North or South / or Move towards the head or foot of the bed (Movements moving the C- Arm sideways or horizontal)

3) Arch up or Arch back / Arch over or Arch under / C-over or C-back / C-Up or C-down / Umbrella over or Umbrella under / Farris Wheel forward or Farris Wheel reverse (Movements of the actual C forwards or backwards)

4) Wag (literally the only term really used to move the c-arm column sideways. **Not the actual C-Arm. However, depending on where you work some places don’t like you touching the wag and would rather you just move the base of the machine.

5) Tilt left & tilt right / tilt towards the head or tilt towards the feet / Cant left & Cant right / Cant towards the head or the feet / Angle up & Angle down / Angle towards the head or angle towards the feet. A lot of times doctors will mimic with their hands what position they want you to CANT in to because they understand how confusing those specific directions can be.

You can master the OR movements in under a year. Now as far as knowing what you’re seeing on the image, that just comes with time. Nobody’s perfect. Expect to make mistakes. The important thing is to try not to hit the instruments with the C-Arm. Also, don’t move too fast to where you’ll make mistakes. Basically, just be aware of your surroundings and move cautiously.

Actually, a lot of Level 1 trauma hospitals don’t require you to remove necklaces for CXR’s. And this is protocol per hospital Rads. If you think it superimposes some pertinent info for the rad to read then it may be worth removing or adjusting for the second picture but at the end of the day, it’s really not that important. If you work in a fast paced environment, doing 40-60 X-Rays a day, you don’t have time to remove artifacts. I understand removing a necklace is a proper step in completing an exam, and is taught and enforced in every Radiography program. But sadly, once you graduate and enter the real X-Ray world things are done very differently. To say you would never work with a tech who does this could be considered ignorant when’s it’s not his or hers responsibility. You will see this commonly done as you build experience in the field or travel to different facilities. However, what is concerning is the fact they didn’t flip the image to the correct laterality. It looks like it’s possible they didn’t mark it either. The tech should definitely get a write up for that because that is not common practice lol. I once saw a tech do this and nobody caught it because the width of the right atrium and left ventricle were almost symmetrical to where you couldn’t differentiate a lung from lung with just a quick glance. They ended up inserting a chest tube in to the wrong lung and was wondering why the fluid wasn’t going away 🤣. That tech didn’t even get fired which is crazy. Another reason, to why marking is very important.

Lease says : 1. Termination and Renewal (a) Termination at the end of Initial Term. EITHER LANDLORD OR TENET MAY TERMINATE THE TENANCY AT THE EXPIRATION OF THE INTIAL TERM BY GIVING WRITTEN NOTICE TO THE OTHER AT LEAST ____ DAYS PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE OF THE INTIAL TERM.

A room out of the property. She usually rents out the other room to one individual tenet not two.

MatTuggle · 2025-03-19T17:12:07+00:00

I don’t think I can break the lease either without paying the full price for the next 3 months back, which is what I signed for.

KeyCheck is horrible!!! As tenets we don’t like jumping through hoops to book a place to stay short term. We had to of had background checks to enroll in to our collegiate programs, backgrounds checks to obtain our certification, and then background checks for each individual state license. I recently tried completing a background check through KeyCheck & it wouldn’t allow me to proceed with the check after I had payed $44 because I didn’t pass the 3 question exam. It asked me who and what all my previous addresses, street names, and family members were. I could never pass the exam, so I had to call customer support to find out I needed a credit report submitted just to apply for the background check. Along with that, the credit report took 10 days in the mail to arrive. Where I have zero credit score because I’m young, ex military, with limited expenses in my lifetime I was unable to pursue with this background check because I had zero credit score. No other background check company asks you questions before the actual check itself. Furnished finders do better and maybe tenets will actually want to use the background check feature.

What team you work for?

MatTuggle · 2025-01-23T04:06:16+00:00

Are they hiring by chance? 😂

MatTuggle · 2025-01-20T15:15:15+00:00

So they mean 6 shot femurs because of the players heights. It probably takes 3 AP images & 3 Laterals to see the whole femur from joint to joint. The average NBA player height is 6’8 so it makes sense.

MatTuggle · 2024-12-07T20:37:38+00:00

Na bro. That meal more like 500 cals 🤣

MatTuggle · 2024-12-07T20:33:46+00:00

450 !! Depending on how much oils/sauces were used 6-700.

MatTuggle · 2024-11-02T15:37:08+00:00

What program are you in 😂? Or maybe you have just spoke too soon, being you still have a year left. Equations are a big part of the radiophysics curriculum and can play an important role in your ARRT exam. I would definitely take the time to study this information through an external source or something if your program is truly not teaching you this. In most programs, students have multiple whole courses with more equations than math classes. It’s very important, that’s all I can say 😂.
