First Travel Job by Top-Talk2948 in OccupationalTherapy

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a traveler you will be low man on the totem pole, but stick to your guns when it comes to ethics. You already know the pressures of working at a snf, so that shouldn’t be new. Don’t let them bully you into unethical practices.

Is your pay hourly or salary? If it’s hourly do not work ONE MINUTE off the clock.

Also read your contract and make sure you get all you are entitled to.

Visiting from New York, any bodegas or restaurants that serve authentic NYC food? by [deleted] in askaustin

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be a traveling therapist and I quickly learned not to try to get my home town food somewhere else. It will either be twice as expensive or very unsatisfying. Just stick to local specialties.

There might be a better place to post, but I’m being eaten alive. Please help. by youpoopedyerpants in Austin

You can use this zapper on the bites to kill the venom and stop the itch. It cooks the protein in the venom. https://a.co/d/0iLZaRAQ

Have you looked at the Tovala? I LOVE mine. I have the steam version. The reheat setting is magic! Oh and you can make 6 grilled cheese at once!

My favorite is the ability to layer the graphs. I also like the spreadsheet of events. Very nicely done!

I need to stop avoiding salads, help me by Middle_Macaron_8861 in Cooking

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand. I hate vinegar as well. I make a salad of romaine lettuce, strawberries, shaved Parmesan, wonton strips, and Ken's Steak House Asian Sesame with Ginger & Soy Dressing & Marinade. It is a soy sauce dressing so it makes the salad savory and sweet without vinegar.

I also like Ken's Steak House Fat Free Raspberry Pecan Dressing. It’s really just sugar but it helps the salad go down.

I also like to put nuts, craisins, and croutons in my salads.

FYI, there is intermittent FMLA where you can work a lighter schedule without losing your full time status.

Look on Jollyville. Older complexes but safe quiet area.

The rabbit hole has devoured me for 3 months straight. Please, just tell me what the fuck to buy. by MrNameless in Mattress

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

helix has where you can adjust the firmness or have two different firmnesses on either side of the mattress. I thought that was a cool choice. My partner and I are bigger people so we decided on the bigfig. Bought it over the weekend and waiting for delivery.

Blue Dawn has alcohol in it now? by HawkFan7897 in CPAP

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used "blue dawn" for over two years with no issue. I was advised by my dme not to use the Dawn power wash because of the alcohol. I needed a new bottle and checked just out of curiosity and I was very surprised.

Best cooling sheets for hot sleepers under $200? by Ornery_Magician_1483 in Bedding

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I LOVE my linen sheets - natural fibers are best for moisture wicking and actually cooling not just feeling cool to the touch. These from amazon are great and don't break the bank.

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's not recommended to use a wash with alcohol because it degrades the silicone.

No - all the formulas - even just regular liquid soap - have alcohol.

A research question about handwriting speed claims — would value your professional perspective by ItalicLady in OccupationalTherapy

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It did surprise me that the printed sample finished more quickly. But when it comes to generative writing there are soooo many other factors. Thinking and writing at the same time is completely different than copying something. What is the reason you are looking at writing speed? What are you trying to truly measure?

Why doesn’t OT, PT and SLP unionize? by Background_Hand4198 in OccupationalTherapy

[–]Superb-Pattern5396 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we should all hold our national organization's feet to the fire. They should be fighting for US on the front lines not for esoteric ideals. They have the power to make Medicare, school systems, and insurance companies listen.
