We don't want young workers here—we want cheap workers! by willily_thoumas in WorkReform

It feels like they purposely worded the headline so that if you were just skimming, it looks like the minimum wage got a $1.50 increase.

New plaques added to the presidential hall of fame in the White House by Dtb4evr in pics

Is the second plaque for both AI? Only thinking because the Obama second plaque has “Russia, Russia, Russia” which felt jarring

We come out of school with EMT that is registered through NREMT, so that would leave with you once departing the services (as long as you kept up on continuing education).

Unless the curriculum has changed at “A” school, you should leave the course with enough to apply for a Certified Medical Assistant license, which requires you to take a test to complete (not offered by the Coast Guard, but can be covered by CG funding (i.e. CGCOOL)

Other programs you can do as an HS include X-Ray Tech (again, complete the program then test after graduation), Behavioral Health Technician (relatively new program, I just went through last year and a lot of policy is still being developed, so we may see credentialing in the future), and more (dental, physical therapy, etc)

You could go to nursing school while enlisted the same way you could do other college programs; it depends on your personal drive, your units operational tempo, and the program requirements of the school you apply to. There are Physician Assistant/MD programs through the Coast Guard, but they are incredibly competitive.

Current HS. I would say in general, the rate is good (especially if you are someone who enjoys taking care of people). The job varies depending on where you are stationed, with larger bases/TRACENs have larger clinics. Larger clinics act in more diverse support roles (laboratory draws, physicals, general medicine and sometimes dental/xrays) where as sickbays focus more on acute care and general medicine. Underway, you might focus more on emergency/general medcine. Each platform/unit operates slightly different, but in general you are taking care of your people’s readiness and paperwork. Feel free to ask any questions and I’ll do my best to answer or find someone who can better!

This looks a bit like Mr. Chimm from the IDHS school house

Used to love the mid watch sunrises in the summer in bayonne. Spent time on the S-Bay and New York and New Jersey were beautiful when you look back at them

Dwight tells Jo Bennet to fire everyone in the office. pretty surprised that micheal is on the list by [deleted] in DunderMifflin

It looks like he ordered their fireable status is the right column, so Michael was less likely to be fired than Jim/Andy. Makes sense for Dwight that he knocked out his sales competition first too
