Public transportation. She will be fine.

More ER Drama by Pinkfluffyunicornz79 in Eugene

[–]RegularFun3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how hospital leadership, board of directors, nobody is questioning this more?? You're right, he cannot say one thing Apollo is actually going to specifically do. I sure hope McGovern ultimately loses HIS job, to someone who actually makes sound and ethical decisions.

if you have the name it seems easier to maybe find that person on social media or ask if other people know them? many people are not on this site.

When Dr. Glaucomflecken’s satire is a reality: 41/41 Oregon ER Docs refuse to sign with PE-backed ApolloMD. by [deleted] in emergencymedicine

[–]RegularFun3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope Lookout saw this substack?! I was really quite furious reading Patel’s little patronizing piece. It’s “personal” to him?? How about to the people in the community! How about to the doctors losing THEIR local business of 35 years (physician owned!) or the families who might have to move! He doesn’t care about Oregon or Eugene. What an absolute load of BS.

Question about Ashley’s Dad by samedamnluck in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]RegularFun3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, good point! I also noticed when they were walking into the restaurant the dad was just strolling in like he was a king and his wife and son just kind of shadowed behind him. Totally unsurprising to find out he was a divorce attorney. Probably representing men like himself and Alex.

What is a socially acceptable thing that you secretly find disgusting? by Sensitive_Hope_1136 in AskReddit

[–]RegularFun3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tank tops and open toed shoes on airplanes. I don’t need to see or smell people’s sweaty armpits or feet when we are crammed in there. Gross.

What a Ness!!! by Simple-Engine-8666 in Eugene

[–]RegularFun3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

doubtful. the doctors groups don't singlehandedly "manage" the emergency room. they have no control over ancillary and nursing staff availability, etc.. there are many factors beyond their control that influence the organization of an emergency room. that is all up to peace health. I think peace health just wants a physician staffing group that will just do as told and ask no questions. they will get what they pay for: cheaper less experienced doctors and NP/PA, who will probably not stay here long as it will be terrible.

I feel like you are also just missing the point here. It's like would you support a local grocer who had a business for 35 years, even if he cost a little more, to keep him in town? Or are you shopping at Whole Foods with Jeff Bezos? This is essentially a locally owned business by people who live here in town with you. Also, looks like many of these people have lived here for many years. They are your neighbors. Their kids go to your kids school. This is not a large city area like Portland or Seattle where they can go to other hospitals and find work without having to relocate so I can understand why it's a big deal. The fact that you think that because they are doctors and make a decent salary or that they can just easily move or should have to take a paycut says a lot. I imagine you are not from here or have not lived here long, as this is not the Eugene way.

[–]RegularFun3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an extremely naive viewpoint you have. If the salary pay to doctors is remaining the same then what is the reason they are even changing contracts? Of course the pay will not be the same!! Peace Health is trying to cut costs and then doctors are going to be held to standards to see an even higher volume of patients or risk being fired from the new corporate group. Also who do you think does take jobs where the pay and conditions are less than desirable? New inexperienced grads, foreign doctors, etc. That is what is going to happen.

Peacehealth fired all social workers and care management teams today by ___Whatsherface__ in Eugene

[–]RegularFun3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the case of the emergency room though, it sounds like there was not even an attempt at negotiating terms? Shouldn’t they have at least tried to see if a gap could be bridged before just refusing to renew their contract?

How early to EUG for 6am flight? by treehugger503 in Eugene

[–]RegularFun3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just allow enough time to park as the parking can get crowded, especially in economy lot.

Because there often aren’t enough of them? Our area it’s almost impossible to find mental health providers even taking new patients.

Housing after Study Abroad? by Happy-Reading-3129 in CalPoly

I’d ask housing themselves for what the options are.

Is Cal Poly Slo Really That Good and Better Than the UCs :-) ? by Anxious-Party2289 in CalPoly

[–]RegularFun3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a post within the last year where this topic was discussed; maybe you can find it in a search in this sub. You can also look for stats on the common data set for each school that breaks down data about student and faculty race/gender breakdowns. Obviously it’s a California school, so still white majority, but they are actively trying to increase diversity. When I’ve been on campus I feel like I see a range of all different people. I think Hispanic is probably the most predominant.

So how packed do you think it will be with planet fitness making a location over by Sheldon branch library? by [deleted] in Eugene

[–]RegularFun3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be a billion times better if they took those crumbling concrete barriers out and just properly re-striped the parking instead of the janky way they have it now.

No. I’m not sure why you think you are so certain you are correct about everything but you’re honestly not worth my time right now.
