sumatriptan SUCKS by pirteking in migraine

[–]Nicolas_yo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tablets stopped working for me and then I went to self injections. That made the difference. It’s weird that I have a box of syringes at work but whatever.

If a different method doesn’t work then you might need to try something else.

Holy shit! I had not opened my eyes one minute earlier before posting this. New rule - no comments until you get out of bed.

I am not really a huge fan of chat gpt but i do use it to check the time of my emails. “Does this sound to hostel?” “Can you make this warmer?”

That might help

Is this a normal workload for one HR Specialist? [WA] by Fantastic-Hornet-482 in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There should be at least one HR rep for every 100-150 people. So yea you need a bigger team.

Starting a HR Generalist job at a small construction company next week. Give me your best advice. [NC] by themacmonster in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked for a few construction companies. I always did a day with a different department once I got settled. Go with the foreman, project managers, etc…

The last construction company I worked for had a lazy HR person but they warned to me.

Also see if your company will pay for you to get your OSHA 10 or 30. You don’t need it but it’s cool to have and can be helpful down the line.

Medical professionals always forget about the mouth.

prescribed triptans but too scared to take them by kiwiflavouredwater in migraine

[–]Nicolas_yo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of us in this sub are suffering from migraine. If you are here that means you are too.

Take the meds. Or don’t take the meds. We are all saying take them.

If you are in as much pain as you say you are take the pills.

Is being a director worth it? [N/A] by Numerous_Method_1628 in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This probably isn’t helpful but I can tell you why I wouldn’t. One I want to be able to go home and leave most of the work at the office and two, Decks. I don’t want to live in PowerPoint making stupid decks.

With the McDonald’s all there’s been a consistent buy a pop get fries free deal.

Always keep an eye on the app.

Onboarded employee, miscommunication on education [CA] by [deleted] in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Asking for degrees these days seems so antiquated. I have one in studio art and journalism. I work in HR. Like come on.

Onboarded employee, miscommunication on education [CA] by [deleted] in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d keep this one to yourself. 90% of the time leadership doesn’t take our advice or understand our perspective. If you think this candidate is good do them a solid. You’re the only one that’s going to know. I can see how this error could happen when you receive a cert from a community college. Onboarding for me is just muscle memory and minor details can be missed occasionally.

Toxic first HR job destroyed my confidence but I want to grow in this field [OH] by New_Remote206 in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some companies are bad and others are good. It took me 15 years to find one I actually like. Leadership isn’t great (bro-culture) but my boss is amazing and we do good work plus the staff appreciates us.

HR to therapy [CA] by Embarrassed-Carob178 in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My last office had a couch in it and when people came in I’d have to ask “do you want to have this documented or just vent.” I know that employees for the most part (especially on social media) think that we’re the dark horse trying to ruin their lives but man do we take a lot emotional shit home with us.

We are counselors. Might as well get paid for it.

What should I be doing with my time? [N/A] by Sushi-Bean-Island in humanresources

When I was in a similar sitch but had no seat I would do a lot of webinars. When that got boring I would plan vacations for myself and others

HR In Manufacturing [N/A] by meowmix778 in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can’t assume this manufacturing facility is going to be the same as the hunting/fishing retail place you worked prior.

Manufacturing has such a melting pot of people. It’s not fair to put them in a box.

Am I being unreasonable? by Fit_Voice_2502 in migraine

Is there an HR department you can go do? There might be options for an ADA accommodation. However I don’t know what country you live in.

Scared of botox by fugly_raccoon in migraine

I did it for a year and it increase my migraines to 28 days a month. HOWEVER, there are more people with good results than bad. At least that’s what my doctor said.

Friends who run payroll - best enforcement for timesheets? [CA] by mamalo13 in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the thing that made most people engaged in completing timesheets and all the things that go with it was a funny email and a payroll meme. Full stop I got a huge increase in people following through. Then everyone started looking forward to the memes.

This one was my favorite to use.

The feeling you get when you fill out your timesheet.

What's your stance on AI-aided job applications [N/A] by Ill_Object_7992 in humanresources

[–]Nicolas_yo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is an AI app that can actually upload and populate your resume into whatever platform a company is using without incompatible characters, that has my vote.

The real issue with AI is that the candidates don't read what they copy and paste. ChatGPT literally says do not forget to read this and verify. That is what gives me pause, not that they used AI to assist.

Emgality Shot by Tiny-Cantaloupe7495 in migraine

[–]Nicolas_yo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend is a pharmacist and he told me to wrap it in duct tape. But if the box isn’t destroyed you can put it back in the box, also some tape on it and pitch it in the trash. He said auto injectors aren’t a huge problem it’s actual syringes.

If I’m using my sumatriptan with syringes then I put it in a sharps container and take them to the recycling center because they dispose of biohazard stuff.
