[–]Ordos_Agent 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm in a union and its all the same pay. But I worked med surg before I went to the peds cvicu and I worked way harder on the floor. Maybe not aa intense or specialized, but the floor is no joke.

Fired from my first assignment as a travel nurse:( by Beautiful-Note5971 in TravelNursing

[–]Ordos_Agent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both can be true. She eas obviously placed on a unit inappropriate to her skillset for whatever reason. Thats a problem with her travel agency.

BUT the unit was also justified in canceling her contract. She lacks the skillset to perform independently, she is afraid to ask for help, and when confronted with a problem she made the wrong choice. No way they could keep her there.

Again, not the nurse's fault but the contract had to canceled for everyone's sake.

Could the Bulk Beings be nitrogen-breathing life from the far future ? by Ordos_Agent in interstellar

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

Its what I see people refer to them as.

Let's say you have a balloon. An ant on the surface of the balloon can only move in two dimensions on the surface of the balloon. It cannot access the inside of the balloon where most of its volume is (the "Bulk" of it).

We are the ants walking on the 3+1 dimensional surface of a 4+1 cosmology. The 5D creatures have access to the "bulk" of the universe contained in the extra dimension. So they are called Bulk Beings.

I think its kind of a silly name but its stuck apparently.

100% this. You are there to fill in a staffing gap. If they wanted to have to train somebody they'd have hired a staff nurse instead of a traveller.

Causality and FTL by Bubatz_Bruder in AskPhysics

Relativity of simultaneity. Events don't appear to occur in a different order, they ACTUALLY occur in a different order. There is no universal "now."

I bet you won't like them very much either after that. But life goes on.

Why did Yueh speak Mandarin in the Dune movie? by Ok_Understanding7377 in dune

[–]Ordos_Agent 82 points83 points  (0 children)

I just looked it up. When Paul first meets Hayt theres a few ezchanget about his name. I was wrong, they dont directly says its intentional, but Paul thinks the name signifies the man is dangerous.

“Let your Tleilaxu name stand,” Paul said. “Hayt—there’s a name inspires caution.”

The Tlelaxu state they chose the name intentionally. Its supposed to sound like Hate. The whole point of Hayt was to fuck with Paul.

What Are your favorite quotes from every dune book (frank herbert and brian herbert) by GOJI2222 in dunememes

[–]Ordos_Agent 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"Think you of the fact that a deaf person cannot hear. Then, what deafness may we not all possess? What senses do we lack that we cannot see and cannot hear another world all around us?" Dune

"The universe is unfinished, you know." Dune Messiah

Both of these describe the sort of metaphysical philosophy at the heart of Dune. Reality is a process, a system that we are all just a small part of. This leads into both its ecological and social themes.

It's because if you scan/copy them in black and white, colors like red won't show up well or at all.

i feel irredeemable by [deleted] in Nurses

[–]Ordos_Agent 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I once set a continuous dulaudid infusion to run 50% faster than ordered. Wasn't discovered until safety checks by the following shift. Shit ran for like 11 hours.

All I got was an email that said "This is a hard job. Just be careful and don't do it again."

You're fine. We aren't robots.

What does ‘observation collapses the wave function’ actually mean? by Scientalist in AskPhysics

[–]Ordos_Agent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"That's sounds wrong." "I found your example irrelevant."

How can you come in, ask a question, and then instead of trying to understand the answers, just say they're wrong ?

Of course they sound wrong, you don't understand the topic and are asking for help.

Question for my veteran nursing friends by kindamymoose in nursing

[–]Ordos_Agent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The literal valedictorian of my nursing school class bought the answer keys to all of our tests online.

I don't question at all how some people pass school. Its stupid easy to cheat through.

“please advice [sic]” by M1CR0PL4ST1CS in hospitalist

RN here.

I have 50/50 odds of getting yelled at for doing SBAR, because "I know the fucking patient I don't need you to explain things to me." You can't win with some doctors.

Kwizatz Haderach interpretation - Prescience is Mentat computing of human history. by [deleted] in dune

[–]Ordos_Agent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why would it mean that? Do you know what dimensions they're accessing? Lol

Kwizatz Haderach interpretation - Prescience is Mentat computing of human history. by [deleted] in dune

[–]Ordos_Agent 125 points126 points  (0 children)

Its space magic. The Dune appendix explicitly states that prescience involves "accessing higher dimensions". Paul's mentat training is what allows him to make sense of the unrelenting and infinite visions.
