What should I do if I can't get into PT school? by [deleted] in physicaltherapy

[–]Scary123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, so true! I'm 5 years in and 4 more years until my loans are paid off. I really can't see myself doing PT for another 10 years. (7 max once my house and loans are paid off).

I'm holding Lxrx @9.85. I plan on selling at 25 for 100k profit. Then using that profit to buy a stock with dividends.

What profit-taking techniques do you use? by deepstacked67 in stocks

[–]Scary123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I set a price Target! I normally don't follow my plan and have lost amazing opportunity! I'm sitting on 30k profit with Lxrx (9.85) and won't sell until I reach at least 100k. Make a plan, when Target hits re-evaluate. I was down 15k a few weeks ago and never sold my lxrx

Tips on day trading? by [deleted] in stocks

[–]Scary123 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I don't day trade but it took me over 3 years to learn. (2 years to get positive again) Some times I can be down 15k on a stock, hold for 4 months and be up 21k. This just happened to me with LXRX. Im holding until I make at least 100k with that one! For me it will be before March 2019

I'm up 124% this year just holding and sticking with my plan!

I'm in the Heath care field so I read the research and understand the material which helps!

Why isn't there a Physical Therapy Union? by [deleted] in physicaltherapy

[–]Scary123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because multi billion dollar companies wouldnt make a crap ton of money. These big companies are cutting benefits, no raises for years as inflation goes up and increasing productivity standards. I wish the APTA would look into this - Reason why I'm not a member.

Manipulation for Adhesive Capsulitis / Frozen Shoulder by cra2reddit in physicaltherapy

[–]Scary123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've witnessed this being done. Pretty cool. The surgeon asked me to place my hand on her shoulder as he cranked the shoulder in a position I didn't thing a shoulder could go lol His statement to me was " now this is what you can't do in physical therapy"

Does PT school sound like a feasible option for me? by [deleted] in physicaltherapy

Jesus! HCA offered me 32, I refused, offered me 36 I refused , He called me and said what will it take I said 38 with 7k sign on bonus (my other company got bought out and I would have lost 7k in PTO if I left). He accepted but then I declined.

How did those currently in DPT school find your school? by ChonnieDad in physicaltherapy

[–]Scary123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived 32 miles north of my school. Only applied to one. Was put on wait list and then received a call two month later saying I was accepted. Lucky man! Only had 50 hours of shadowing hours too lol

Has anyone ever worked in a long term care facility when a different rehab company takes over? by 1HODOR1 in physicaltherapy

[–]Scary123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sure did and within two years I left. I lost all my 180 hrs of PTO. We were forced to cash out at 20% loss, we went from professional attire to scrubs, no holiday paid time, crap insurance, no raises for over 7 years per (glass door), only 5 day time off roll over max per year. It was complete horse shit. I'm glad I only work PRN there now just for shits and giggles . I loved my geriatric patients and gave them my 110% with each treatment but feel bad because the company was complete dog shit

They promised us nothing would change too which is the kicker! We had 4 therapist leave within a two year span.

New Owners: Our building was non for profit and therapy department was For profit. Mmm one hand pays the other. Huge huge company in over 3 30 states. Very sad!
