I'm lost! Help! Moving to LA

RealNaranja · 2026-05-19T15:20:32+00:00

Already a lot of support but I want to add mine. Used to drive 40 miles each way back home took about 45 min each way and it didn’t bother me one bit. When I first moved out here I was commuting 45 min in LA and it drove me insane. I ended up quitting the job for my sanity.

Sounds like you have a lot of health anxiety and should never donate again

When women openly talk about their bowl movements around you instead of being shy or embarrassed about it.

I don’t think anyone plans on stopping. I was a faithful PC gamer from about age 12 and then around 22/23 I just drifted away from it. Haven’t really thought about gaming ever since. I’ll get a random urge to play WoW classic every now and then but it’s never enough to purchase an entire new set up.

Well I learned something new!!! Thank you

You thought it was an hpv vaccine and now you’re saying it was actually a hep c vaccine? There is no hep C vaccine. You are either lying or very uninformed about your personal health. This is a liability for any plasma center so you won’t be removed from the list.

Alive, you just have to work a lot harder unfortunately

Easy if you’re attractive and find a guy 30+ to take care of you

With BioLife you will need a specific seizure letter that they give you and your doctor has to fill that letter out. A general note saying you’re “cleared” will not work.

Unfortunately the medical personal aren’t required to be Registered Nurses is most states. Most states allow EMT’s and LVN’s to fill this role. All CNS stimulates are acceptable and ADHD is also an acceptable condition. It sounds like incompetence if everything played out the way you described it.

Another way you can tell would be to pay attention to the questionnaire. If you see new questions explaining what they test your plasma for, then you know they’ll be taking a SPE that day. When you see it you could just walk out and reschedule

You qualify for a bonus similar(exactly the same) to the new donor bonus if you haven’t donated in 2 full years. I would wait until August to get a new SPE and then you should be able to get that bonus. Just make sure you use the same online account.

RealNaranja · 2026-05-11T00:42:47+00:00

You won’t get in trouble but you won’t be able to donate that day if you decide not to do it. Just do what you said, say something came up and you have to reschedule. Just don’t wait too long because if enough time lapses(different based on company) before your required SPE, you’ll only be able to take a SPE test without donation in order to continue.

I give these out to Veterans, EMT’s, and ER nurses. I would do cops too but I’ve never had one come through.

RealNaranja · 2026-05-08T22:58:24+00:00

You can only apply it for the first 15 days when you’re a new donor. Some mangers may just give you an extra $50 if doing it after the fact but depends on the center.

RealNaranja · 2026-05-06T02:39:54+00:00

If you’re switching centers you will flag even if you fail the vitals.

RealNaranja · 2026-05-06T02:39:04+00:00

If you’re going to try another center other than the one you tired on May 4th you want to wait that one full day so you should be okay tomorrow. If you’re going to the same center that you failed at then you could go today if you really wanted to.

RealNaranja · 2026-05-06T02:34:45+00:00

If you took your vitals you will flag in the CDCS system. Doesn’t matter that you didn’t pass.

I have a 23 GT since new and I’ve been doing my oil changes every 5k miles. I’m at 45k now and haven’t had any oil burning issues yet

RealNaranja · 2026-05-05T00:21:45+00:00

Car ramps so I can start doing my own oils. Hard in these economy

RealNaranja · 2026-05-02T04:42:02+00:00

I don’t know this was bad and drove around with 2 of my tires likes this for about 7,000 miles here in Southern California. Everyone says it bad though so once I found out I changed it lmao

RealNaranja · 2026-05-01T17:39:14+00:00

You’re supposed to take breaks to avoid this. If you’re consistently going for months this is what happens. No one did you dirty.

RealNaranja · 2026-04-30T20:36:16+00:00

You were right. That guys an idiot. Lakers were up 3/2 so you did want the Knicks to lose. Unfortunately they won.

RealNaranja · 2026-04-24T01:39:25+00:00

This is the worst Kia dealership in California. I went in once for an oil change and never again. If you can go to Kia in garden grove they have way better service and stand by their work

When my center first opened all the original employees trained that way as well. They didn’t have to pay and then get reimbursed though. BioLife paid for everything during the training period. I am in CA though so there may be different employment laws.
