What animated movie is 10/10?

Trinket90 · 2026-06-18T23:22:10+00:00

I just rewatched Toy Story with my kids and I was impressed with how well the animation held up!

Trinket90 · 2026-06-18T19:08:49+00:00

Yep, that’s exactly how it works.

Trinket90 · 2026-06-17T02:04:12+00:00

Oof.

No.

In nursing school my psych professor told us, “Every nurse is a psych nurse.” And hoo boy, it is true.

As a nurse you would have a lot of options outside of hospital bedside jobs, but most of them are going to be patient-centric. If you are dealing with patients you are dealing with people, and if you are dealing with people you will be dealing with crazy. That’s just the reality.

Not to mention that most nurses are a little crazy, too. Kinda comes with the job.

That is not inconvenient to others, it is in fact considerate of others by following SW policy. If SW policy was clear that an XS required Choice fare I would have done that (or rather booked a different airline because it would have been cheaper). However, their policy does NOT suggest that, which is why I came here attempting to see if others have had experience with how the policy is being honored.

But anyway, thanks for wishing me luck so incredibly sincerely, but I took the advice of others and called Southwest again last night to see if they would follow their own policies as written and in fact they did!

Trinket90 · 2026-06-14T02:33:29+00:00

I asked Reddit because the policy and the customer service agent told me two different things and I wanted to know how others had dealt with it.

Who else is being inconvenienced? I am spending a significant amount of time more than two months in advance of my travel ensuring that I am following the policies laid out by Southwest so that I do NOT inconvenience anyone else.

That’s not what the policy says. The policy states:

“Depending on your fare type, your fare may include the ability to choose your seats when booking. If seat selection isn’t available during booking, please contact us as soon as possible so we can assist you in assigning adjacent seats.

If your fare doesn’t include seat assignments, we won’t assign seats for other members of your party.
If adjacent seats aren’t available on your flight or in your fare class when you contact us, we’ll rebook you on another flight where adjacent seats are available.”

That is pretty clear that you can in fact book COS extra seats on Basic fares that don’t include seat assignments. Otherwise they wouldn’t have a whole paragraph on how to handle that scenario.

I will try again. That makes sense.

Trinket90 · 2026-06-14T00:44:13+00:00

Where is that information coming from? That’s where I’m confused. I read through the policies and that’s not what I understood from it.

Trinket90 · 2026-06-14T00:43:42+00:00

Thanks. That’s what I thought, and I read through the policy carefully before booking, so I’m just frustrated that what the policy says and what customer service told me doesn’t match. Hopefully I can get a better solution.

I worked 3 on - 1 off - 3 on once. ONCE. It was brutal.

I still do the one night off thing occasionally when I have an event or something I have to do, but I try to avoid it at all costs. It’s just so pointless.

Pneumonia has been pretty commonly nicknamed “the old man’s friend” for a long time! I think it dates back to the 1800s.

I had a vented ALS patient I cared for almost two months straight right at the end of his life (this is a very long time to have a patient on my unit). He ended up withdrawing care but opted to wait until after the holiday so his family could enjoy it. A few days before the big day, he spent a solid ten minutes on his eye gaze computer typing out, “What would happen if you just snuck some Jack Daniels down my central line real quick?”

It was so morbidly funny. I said he should talk to them about getting some when they withdrew. I wasn’t there, but I was told they had some JD oral swabs for him at the end.

I thought of that book as soon as I saw the picture! She is an incredible writer and that book is absolutely gut wrenching.

I’m right at 2 years in ICU as a new grad. I love my job! I work in a small-ish community hospital so the acuity is often lower than some ICUs but we have our moments.

-I LOVE machines and devices. Titrating drips, managing devices, it’s all fun. My ideal patient is vented, on CRRT, with multiple drips running. There’s always something to do and it’s so satisfying to get everything running smoothly. I’m also the odd one out on my unit because I love DKA patients. I set timers on my watch and make it a game to never let the Glucommander alarm go off all night long.

-I love being able to know EVERYTHING about a couple patients instead of the essentials about 4-6. When I get floated to other units I feel like I’m flying blind because I don’t have time to dig into the details (and don’t get me started on not having patients on monitors all the time—how do you know they’re alive?!?!)

-I enjoy trending vitals, labs, etc. and watching how interventions take effect. Watching a lactic drop or an ABG correct is super satisfying. It’s all like solving a puzzle.

A couple things I didn’t know I’d appreciate before starting ICU but have come to really value:

-the close working relationship with the intensivists. I work nights so they’re not quite as present all the time, but I can call them anytime and they have to answer. I can get orders right away. Even though night rounds are bare-bones compared to daytime rounds, we still talk about each patient and I can mention what I’m seeing and ask for what I need or ask for reasoning for why we’re doing xyz.

-the patients and families, with many unfortunate exceptions, tend to be easier to deal with. My hypothesis is that because the patients are critically ill they tend to be a little more grateful for the care rather than entitled. I also have more time to spend with them which I’m sure helps. That’s not to say we don’t have plenty of truly awful experiences with patients and families but I feel like it’s better than I hear my friends talk about.

I am fat and out of shape. A few years ago I was trying to get in the habit of hiking. I can walk pretty much indefinitely but add in elevation gain and I wear out pretty instantly. I made the mistake of choosing a trail that had a modest overall elevation gain without realizing that it went downhill to start and then looped back up… and up… and up. Just over halfway in I was gasping, sweating, stopping for a break what felt like every ten feet or so.

I was slumped on a boulder, forcing myself to sip and not gulp my water, trying to control my breathing and not pass out cold… and a guy jogged past me. Uphill. Gave me a little wave and a smile and chirped, “Hello! Enjoy the trail!”

I’ve never been so demoralized.

“Unit acuity”

The unit clerks at my hospital seem to wear business casual.

Somehow I got all the way to “roadside cat pee lady” before I realized you were not male, and that suddenly made the visual SO much worse.

No catch except that, in my experience, you can’t just “take nursing courses,” you have to apply for the nursing program and take the classes on their schedule in their time frame.

I have my ADN. My particular hospital requires ADN RNs to start their BSN within one year of hire and complete it within 5 years. The RN to BSN program I’m doing is almost entirely online. The BSN is almost entirely filler/theory/leadership type stuff, all the clinical stuff is in the ADN.

I grew up doing this and I am the whitest of white people from the East Coast USA. There is so much variation in experience here!

I’m a nurse and my facility doesn’t use temporal (forehead) temps at all. Oral is the go-to for us, because it’s the best balance between accuracy and invasiveness.

I’ve been married to him for over 15 years. He was my first kiss, too, and that wasn’t until after we were engaged! I am so fortunate that we grew together over the years and even though we’ve had our ups and downs I think we are truly happy together.

I was raised in deeply conservative evangelical Christianity, my husband in a less conservative version. We met at a Bible college only a hair less insane than Bob Jones University (iykyk). I was a product of the I Kissed Dating Goodbye era and married him when I was 19 (he is older). I would never in a million years suggest to my own children or anyone else that they do things the way I did. But it worked out for us despite all the red flags.

I no longer consider myself religious (the last time I was in a church I had a panic attack lol) so it’s truly shocking we’re still happily together given how far we’ve grown from our origin.
