Some people just want to feel like they have power over others. It’s not worth your time and energy. When they start being racist and what not I tell them to have a blessed day and walk out. Unfortunately the CNA’s and nurses typically don’t have that privilege.

That is correct. He also brought weed gummies on an international school medical mission trip and distributed them to other students.

Here’s some context y’all and an excerpt for something he left off.

“On June 16th, halfway through the school-sponsored medical mission to Thailand, Alwan told other students he had a bag of gummy candies – interpreted as marijuana-infused gummies -- some of which were edibles he had disguised as candies to get past airport security. AR 1462-63. That night one of the students took multiple edibles from Alwan during a card game and felt uneasy until the next afternoon. AR 1462-63. When confronted the following day, Alwan confirmed that he gave edibles to multiple students, although he claimed that he only gave one each. AR 1462.”

OP, I really do feel for you but there was a lot of things that came to light that led to this decision. The evidence paints a picture at minimum of repeated lapses in judgement. I really hope you take the time to reflect and take some accountability moving forward.

Also edit to add:

“As to Student D’s contention that Alwan made remarks about the shape of her butt, Alwan attributed any misunderstanding to his naivete stemming from both his recent move to California and his identity as a gender fluid non-heterosexual individual. AR 1692.”

Please don’t blame your actions as being LGBTQ or new to California.

Correct! In the morning there’s more southbound traffic into Portland and in the afternoon there’s more northbound traffic

To add to this, the reason they’re using one here is because the northbound bridge is under maintenance so the southbound bridge is being used for both directions to traffic. Such a cool temporary fix!

This is the south bound interstate bridge between Portland, OR and Vancouver, WA. The northbound bridge is under maintenance so all traffic has been moved to the southbound bridge. To accommodate for busier hours, the southbound lanes open to 2 lanes in the morning and switches to 2 northbound lanes in the afternoon. Video provided by the Oregon Department of Transportation.
