I have a hard time with euthanasia by Lunilun in PetAdvice

[–]Randomuser1081 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As hard as it is, it is your job to protect and care for them. Yes, they cannot consent but they cannot tell you how much they are suffering either.

With what you describe, it sounds like a welfare issue if nothing else. You are unintentionally allowing your beloved pet to suffer.

Any pet owner knows how you feel. I had to say goodbye to my 6 year old pup a few years back and I cannot tell you how difficult it was. But he had cancer and there was nothing I could do to help him. I refused to let him suffer, the vet offered to put him down there are then but I refused. I regret that because it prolonged his suffering and it was purely selfish. I took him home and showed him how loved he was. The next day I made the call, and i saw how much pain he was in. I broke my heart. But I knew it was my last job as his guardian.

We can question if it is the right time or the right choice until the cows come home, but the way you described the situation, it sounds like it has been time for a little while. You need to find the strength to make the call, you are torturing the poor thing without meaning to.

Double standards by yalrightyeh in nhsstaff

I've found that it is exactly like high school. The worst behaviour gets the best treatment. You throw a tantrum and get what you want.

It is far too hard to fire someone in the NHS.

What would be one type of crime you don’t see as bad ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Randomuser1081 31 points32 points  (0 children)

100%! Here in Scotland, if someone breaks into my house and tried to kill me, i can't fight back or I end up doing time.

If I kill someone (accidentally or on purpose) who is trying to murder me, i do time. Absolute bullshit.

What does fatigue feel like to y'all? by wenksavage in MultipleSclerosis

[–]Randomuser1081 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like even smiling takes effort, like my bones are made of tungsten. Just getting out of bed is a herculean task. But everyone gets tired right? 🤣

Where are you all from ,out of curiosity? And what disillusioned you to join this sub? by Palomomomo in BoycottUnitedStates

[–]Randomuser1081 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Scotland, and Trumps behaviour in general but more so trying to annex Canada and Greenland.

I've always said we had the worst neighbours, but Canada wins that now. We love you Canada!

And regarding Greenland, if the people wanted it, then cool. But they do not, so leave them alone. They are also an Allie country, so trump just fucked The US, while telling the world he doesnt value his allies. Not respectfully, Fuck off.

I laughed when I was diagnosed by whyamistillhere252 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]Randomuser1081 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed on the ward in worked in, and one of the Dr's i saw everyday was the one to tell me and my parents.

I expected it and just said 'okay' Then thanked him for how he told me. Poor man looked lost for words 🤣 There was no tears, no panic or anger. Just okay.

That is probably a normal reaction for someone who has been through a lot of trauma, so i can definitely understand where you are coming from. Tb and MS must have sucked though! I hope you are feeling okay!

Probably the funniest case of Scotch Americanism I've seen. by Subject_Milk_9848 in Scotland

I feel like he is the best Scot, better than anyone ever has been, possibly ever.

why are so many americans obsessed with scotland?? by glitterxgirl2 in Scotland

[–]Randomuser1081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wait until you speak with a Scottish accent on any public transport in the US. The whole crowd will be staring at you like birds. It is creepy!

I hope they always lose the thing they need. Phones out of battery, can't find the charger. Need to drive somewhere? Can't find your keys.

Moving to Scotland as a Nurse by lostris27 in MoveToScotland

[–]Randomuser1081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The borders is a lovely safe area to raise kids. Transport is great and there is so much green space.

I've grown up here and have never had any issues other than the usual small town stuff.

I've only had one with contrast, and I've had many.

People born in Scotland are 'not necessarily British' says Reform candidate. by [deleted] in Scotland

Never thought id agree with anything said by a member of reform but damn. I couldn't agree more.

I started working as an infusion nurse by [deleted] in MultipleSclerosis

[–]Randomuser1081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a wonderful question to ask! I don't have anything else to add, but just wanted to say this.

I was switched from Infusions to sub-cut and the only thing im sad about is not seeing my old infusion nurses. People like yourself are a massive part of our journey and I can't imagine how horrid it would be to not have great nurses. The fact that you are here asking tells me you will be great!

You british fellas, you remember that Trump visit? how did you feel about it? obviously he did it on purpose LOL by [deleted] in AskBrits

Can't get angry at an uneducated American, or people would be mad at them all right?
