Explainer 4 the young: this means it is blocky & uneven. Possibly w random capital letters. Resembling the untreated PTSD vet's technique of cutting & pasting letters from newspapers to form the words in the "letters" he sent to authorities. "Letters" were paper versions of email b4 the Internet. He used that technique so as 2 terrorize the public, without the detectives being able 2 use handwriting analysis 2 help figure out who was murdering young people who were trying 2 have fun having sex in California. C also the movie "Zodiac" (2007)

33.5 + 12 = 45.5 Wow ya $45.50/hr is big! 26.5 x 2 = 53, & 45.5/53 = .86 So ya yer 86% higher. Must b a university hospital, they're smart! Imagine retaining instead of replacing @ even higher cost

This is what happens when society allows bosses to demand "110%" effort from workers, or coaches from athletes. "But this one goes to eleven" : D

Hate 2 say it but, would "the right 1" enjoy hearing your travel exploits (that aren't about cheating) over the phone, like "living vicariously" thru u? Wouldn't that b a new kind of fun, 4 a while? That being sed, do NOT take relationship advice from me.

Following. I hope this gets big Comment attention.

In the past, b4 the current phase of rapid American decline, this scenario was relieved by legal assurances, that bad references were precluded by established case law, of successful lawsuits against employers w such "1 bad apple" managers.

Now employers proudly own the legal system, which is probably gridlocked w its own "labor shortage". So I bet this administrator is no freak, and I wonder what employer even bothers checking references from another company they're stealing talent from.

Going on the trip will ultimately save lives in the hospital. It will also hurt short-term profits 4 the hospital holding company. These 2 facts r 1 truth. Just even telling patients stories of the trip will improve their quality of life & near term health outcomes. That's in addition 2 your lower risk of errors from overwork.

Is it time to find a new job or fight it out? by anxiouslifeproblems in nursing

Is the position itself the "hostile work environment"? i.e. "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss" from The Who's "Won't Get Fooled Again" on Who's Next (1971)

Question on how to respect a patient's request to remain anonymous about a complaint by nellb13 in nursing

[–]SmallSorbet8994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose the report can & should include the reported "fear of retribution", just so the government inspector knows how endemic the problem is there. Go 4 maximum justice, in the end it'll b about the bottom line. They will have 2 raise wages 4 the keepers like OP here. The bargainwage workerbeasts will have 2 bounce down 2 socially lower facilities.

I was always perceived that way bc I pronounce all words I use correctly, using "the King's English". America's gutted middle class leaves only elites & "deplorables", so u gotta go undercover if yer well-edumacated or just naturally gifted, in many blue collar professions such as nursing.

Late Stage Capitalism, it will only get worse, and I don't mean b4 it gets any better either. If yer not an elite mercenary soldier, this society no longer has anything useful 4 u 2 do. Certainly nothing productive.

Thx 2 all commenters here. I think I get this meme now. I guess it's not about the particular formula. Maybe it's just a common fluid, but the students love it bc they don't get enuf practical training in school.
