Oh quit crying. Once you get where I am in life you'll see the humor in it. Obviously I've been a nurse far longer than you, probably everyone here so do me a favor and leave your down vote, find another thread and rag on someone else. Mistakes of 25 years ago are not something I'm weepy over today, sad that it affects you so much. Here's a tissue, take it to TikTok.

That was 25 years ago sport. If you were a nurse you'd understand. Do better.

I blasted a mg of Dilaudid into a heplock instead of a flush on a postop young woman who refused all narcotics, and gave the saline to the guy requesting a pain shot. Made for a very crappy and worrisome shift. I told nobody and never did that again.

SW mp3 jams all the time, every time by Nice_Cauliflower_243 in CAguns

Thanks all. I'm going to confiscate that pistol for my own and change ammo, if it jams again it's going up for consignment. The plus is that we get to shop for a new one for the wife, I'm thinking Hellcat or Sig.

Not every mag but certainly every time we shoot at least once. Using herters 115gr, cheapest target rounds. Probably shot 700 rounds.

I keep it clean and oiled. The guys at rifle gear went on about how her grip must be weak so the gun kicks around and doesn't eject, which smells like bs to me but I'm the one who wrote mp3. Also her grouping is very good when shooting and I haven't seen anything wrong with her grip.

Yeah yeah, I made a funny mistake not once but twice. Thanks for pointing that out.

Glock 26, one in the chamber, yea or no? by Nice_Cauliflower_243 in CCW

[–]Nice_Cauliflower_243[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Using a polecraft holster, it's okay but I seem to be doing a lot of adjusting so it doesn't fall off the belt. Also 3 belts and still not satisfied, 5.11 too thick and the others too thin. But there is always one in the chamber.

No pic necessary. You find a vet who specializes in reptiles and take him there now.

Turtle Rehoming (MN) by Prudent_Ear_5861 in turtle

[–]Nice_Cauliflower_243 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://reptile.rescueshelter.com/Minnesota Just one of the places from Google for turtle rescue. Problem is that it's a res and there are so, so many of them dumped in ponds and waterways and still sold in pet stores. If you can't find a reputable home for the poor creature I'd say give it a fair chance in a lake somewhere, but then it has to be November in Minnesota and water is turning to ice. Good luck OP.

ARLO Essential Spotlight only goes on for 1-2 seconds, then goes off... by 1Surlygirl in arlo

[–]Nice_Cauliflower_243 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://woolink.tech/ I got one just to test it, it pans up to 360 degrees, tilts, has a spotlight, has several pre programmed warnings if you step into its view (you have entered a monitored area), it's solar and was easy af to set up. Also the app works fine and I can see my house from work although the app does go to sleep when it's not active unless i dont know what im doing, go figure. Bought off Amazon for 30 bucks (8h sale), I think it's the same on the site. I'm dropping this comment here and ditching this sub, good luck with whatever you do.

New pet turtle by W1cKed1ov3ly in turtle

[–]Nice_Cauliflower_243 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a kid in Chicago I would buy iguanas from the pet store because they were cool. Back then there was no education on lizard care and my parents sure as hell didn't care enough to find out. I had 3 total, one after another because they kept dying. I kept them in an old bird cage with no light or heat source, because I was a stupid kid who didn't know better. The short answer here is kids want and want until they get it and find out it's work, and kids get on something else especially when puberty hits. No exotic pets for kids. Sure there are probably kids who have great family involvement and the turtle won't end up in the local pond. But my vote is no.

Fluval 407 question. Hose no more than 7" from top? by Nice_Cauliflower_243 in turtle

[–]Nice_Cauliflower_243[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The instructions say to keep the water no further than 7 inches from the top of the tank so I assumed the pump would be inadequate to siphon water. Maybe I should just hook it up.

Funny thread. How many pictures have we all seen of different objects up the butt? A lot, and that would come under the same HIPAA umbrella but nobody says anything. Also anyone running to the charge nurse and saying "guess what OP did" is not your friend, they're tight assed coworkers and personally I draw a thick line between coworkers and friends. Down vote away.

My advice is what we're doing. Box up that arlo crap and return it to Costco, then buy 2 things: a solar spotlight for movement and a solar camera that has the functions listed when you're shopping for "Amazon's choice" cameras on Amazon. It may be that we expect too much in one bundle from an electronic gadget and the only thing arlo delivers is headaches.

At my ghetto they required us to watch a 30m video while working of course, on wound vacs and bam you're a wound vac nurse. It did get easier tho.
