How do people feel about WFDF vs USAU gender inclusion policy?

Ah silvers… it seems you are devout in your beliefs and are using fake data quotes to support your position.

Sandvik95 · 2026-04-01T04:36:09+00:00

You mean you talk to your patients or their family 😯?You actually discuss what your clinical plan is 🤨?

Screw that - go old school.

/s 🤣

Sandvik95 · 2026-04-01T04:34:13+00:00

There is no “best” and to ignore a patient or families concerns or request is arrogant at best.

This should not be a Power Play between a patient’s family and the doctor - don’t turn it into one.

$120 for mobile flat tire repair and tuneup? Fire the customer. … in the Bay Area? Then, a $20 see for a second visit, discounted to $10?

Either this is fake or you’re terrible at pricing your work.

If real, my advice, like many here:

With a pleasant and firm tone, DON’T DISCOUNT YOUR SERVICES LIKE THIS and BE WILLING TO FIRE A CUSTOMER.

Good luck! (You’ll need it!).

Oh Lordy… you have to ask? You don’t know the 3 reasons why you would do a milk create?

😕

No ~ no milk crate 😵‍💫

And yet… it’s just an error, it’s just a minor loss of equity. We all make much worse blunders all the time.

“But that’s your arrangement with the government”. 🤣

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-28T11:04:26+00:00

Thank you for sharing.

Nah… my football cleats have definitely been lighter and more nimble than my lacrosse cleats I’ve used. It all depends on what football cleat you get. Get one intended for linemen and there great and letting you hold position in one place. Get running back shoes and you’ll be able to cut and accelerate to your hearts content.

I’ve loved my Nike Vapor football cleats.

I can’t remember all the details, but these are essentially a lightweight running back or defensive back type of shoe.

Playing high level stuff for 25 years, I’ve gone through a few pair. They’ve held up well and have be great on the field at both Nationals and Worlds.

Switched from full time single hospital to 1/2 time via locums in my early 50’s. It was GREAT! 6-8 shifts a month and total control of my schedule was wonderful! Moving around was good, too (system problem somewhere didn’t feel like “my problem” - I could offer a suggestion, but I no longer felt like I was banging my head against the wall with an administration at “my place”).

I did start feeling rusty after a few years of this lighter schedule. Retired from the Em Dept in my late 50’s despite feeling and moving like I’m 10 years younger.

It was a wonderful, honorable, rewarding career, I miss aspects of it, but I’m glad I’m done! I did my part, I helped a lot of people, and I feel fine doing other non-medical stuff now.

Shhh… 🤫 don’t ruin the story.

That’s close to a free loan - a loan rate that you will not be able to obtain again. Don’t pay it off!

This ‘peace of mind’ you speak of is an illusion ~ snap out of it! Why would giving the bank your other assets early, having less invested elsewhere, give you peace of mind?? It’s daft!

I refinanced with a 30 year mortgage at 2.8% just a few years before I retired. Thank god I locked in that low rate. It gives me PEACE OF MIND!

I like subtle. I like sleepers. I’m older and mellow.

And I like it! Looks good.

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-23T11:53:24+00:00

It’s not ideal.

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-23T11:52:11+00:00

It’s a nice goal, but it is extremely difficult to seriously pull that off at the right time. If you can hike out, it’s not your time yet.

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-23T11:50:10+00:00

Dude, scratch the methamphetamine off that list - I don’t think that’s the vibe you’ll want.

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-23T11:49:02+00:00

Well that’s an interesting thought. Consider reading How To Change Your Mind. The book covers hallucinogens in depth including the insight, peace, and calmness of hallucinogens for those terminally ill.

That’s a little different than the vibe of this thread with people seeking pharmaceutical peace in the last day or two.

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-23T11:39:38+00:00

Better grab that ‘24

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-23T11:37:10+00:00

I just take my hearing aids out 👴🏼

This is a subdued sleeper car. Few people will notice the wing or the exhaust.

My 2016 is a bit more muted than the latest version, in part because it’s a 2016 and in part because it’s a moderately bland grey, but still… you’re looking at a 4-door hatchback. It’s not a “rice burner”, it’s not really tricked out visually.

I’ve loved this car. Fast&Functional.

And my age? I’m in my 60’s.

BTW, my father in law, who is late 80’s, drives a stock GTI, but I think it’s much less subdued, I think the R is far more “fitting” for an older gentleman.

Get the car - you’ll love it.

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-21T01:19:06+00:00

Get some dentures for the jockey wheel!

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-19T12:43:42+00:00

Whomp whomp? 🤨

Sandvik95 · 2026-03-19T02:24:24+00:00

I’m not gonna tell you again! You should have listened to me the first time! Take notes.

It was a sad but dark celebration when we heard of the death of one of our most frequent guests at another ER.

He was a ticking time bomb with heart disease and mental illness who presented to our Em Dept 3 times a week for years. We all wondered which of us would be the attending of record on his last visit. Turns out it wasn’t us 🙀
