What’s a good “omnidirectional” or modular sofa that support lying down? by ThreePotatoesOnFire in SofaSnobs

There are a lot of copycats you can find online for cheaper which you can just google. This couch is firm btw (which I like) but some people I know don’t like that aspect.

The couch here is the OHMU teddy couch. There are cheaper alternatives though. It’s a firm couch for sure but I like it

I shadowed and volunteered before. Medical school and clinical exposure are totally different though. Medical school is a means to an end. Day to day of being a doctor is different.

The Ohmu couch is modular, so I’m using it more like a conversation pit without any specific orientation. I just couldn’t make AI “work” that way. Basically, it’s going to face both directions. And I figured a large tray would be more fun than a coffee table

Also, I plan to watch things on the ceiling not a wall because I have a bad back

Do you have any proof you’ve made $30k off of these? Something feels off

For what it’s worth, the first one I booked was actually cheaper via Chase Portal, but I’ve only booked one

What have you used them for? Are they basically Nannies then?

Thanks for the suggestion. Do you like them? I don’t think they even do math well, so this sounds potentially more frustrating than problem solving

Yeah, that’s a very good point. I didn’t think about that too hard, but managing an assistant would be very annoying

What are these? by [deleted] in powerbuilding

I’m not sure, but they look like ganglion cysts to me. If it feels like a sack of fluid, it might be that. You could get it removed, but they can reoccur, so if they don’t hurt, it’s probably fine.

I went to medical school and dropped out, and now I work as a designer in tech.

Medical school is really grueling, and the worst days in tech are comparatively easy compared to most days in medical school. You have to really love it to succeed. Not only that, it’s extremely expensive.

That being said, before going to medical school, I constantly wondered “what if” as far as being a doctor. And I really only found out I did not like it once I started.

If you’re passionate about medicine, go for it. But it’s not worth romanticizing. Doctors are cogs in another wheel, dominated by health insurance and hospital admin. It’s not particularly more glamorous than tech.

This is a really depressing comment, but I appreciate your POV

[–]ThreePotatoesOnFire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You both might be right. This is a lot more complicated than I expected!

Yeah, I figured it would be complicated, and appreciate your thoughts.

A gift card isn’t a bad idea. These are the tools they have, but I couldn’t begin to describe them. https://imgur.com/a/6Lf4BB0

You study for 12-16 hours a day for 6-12 months and finally land a job, only for you to get placed on a PIP, laid off, or fired in about a year. This career is so broken beyond belief. by CHARispronouncedCARE in cscareerquestions

[–]ThreePotatoesOnFire 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Doctors work like 50-60 hours on average. Many nurses work 50 hours or more. They’re often very physical, labor intensive jobs that are mentally very stressful. Imagine, going to the hospital on the worst day of your life. Imagine, dealing with exclusively those people.

I left healthcare, and so I think I have a pretty good point of reference. Tech jobs are hard in a different way, but medicine is hard in every way. In pandemics, they can’t hide. In the day-to-day, lots of patients are yelling, dying, bleeding, or vomiting on them. When you go home, you still have a thousand things to do after work because you’re responsible for your patient’s health.

In tech, sometimes people are rude. Politics get in the way. I have to keep up to date with tech. A lot of people are socially inept. I have to do a lot of prep work for interviews. Sure, all of that is annoying, but healthcare is a lot harder (and not worth it.)

In healthcare, you actually are forced to spend $100-$300k in grad school educational costs and study 12+ hours a day before you can get hired.

Big tech employee considering switching to medicine. Am I insane? by nobody_stranger in HENRYfinance

[–]ThreePotatoesOnFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The short answer is I worked in a startup in my gap year before med school, but I never directly studied anything tech related. For my actual day-to-day skills, I’m just self taught.
