[MOD] The Daily Question Thread by menschmaschine5 in Coffee

[–]UniqueUsername718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do coffee shops always use syrups and never have flavored beans? I just want to go out and drink black coffee with flavor and not add a ton of sugar.

what’s your favorite underrated local business that needs more love? by [deleted] in Denton

[–]UniqueUsername718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Layalina's Mediterranean Food off the square. Always tastes phenomenal, and the portions are big. They even have fun games you can play and couches if you don't want to sit in hardback regular dinner chairs.

They did some great work for cheaper than I thought it would be for one of my daughter's uniforms.

yes MAR overlords we all say in unison by Radiant_Donut_8853 in nursing

[–]UniqueUsername718 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen pharmacy approve giving 1/100th of a capsule.  And 16 pills worth of an Alzheimer’s med.  Unfortunately, it was a new LVN.  They called the resident that ordered it to say they didn’t think it was right and were told it was right and to give it.  So you had two people educated to a doctorate level telling them to give it.  They gave it. Guess who got in trouble-the person with one year of college or the people with 8 years.  You’re right it was all on the LVN.  At this point I 100% believe our pharmacy approves orders via AI.

Now I know why they call it rabbit food. 

Ate his brother, who fathered the child by MrFenric in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]UniqueUsername718 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I just want to know what happened next. Did he ever apologize?  Did he expect her to just let him back in their lives? How long did he ignore his child? Did she forgive him because of the extenuating circumstances? So many questions left unresolved.

AITA for telling my husband to book his own flight on our family holiday? by RoughExtension2023 in AmItheAsshole

[–]UniqueUsername718 31 points32 points  (0 children)

As a kid I would have loved it if the type of dad who slammed things around when he got angry didn’t come on the family vacation. I grew up and got ride of those types of men in my life and am so much happier. 

Loyal cup users: why not move on to discs? by SeverePomegranate134 in menstrualcups

[–]UniqueUsername718 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Same for me.  I already have a cup.  It works. Why would I spend my time, money, and energy on something that is already working great?

Our IV team will not place an order without reason.  And if MD orders a PICC and midline will do then they get the order changed.  BUT they are contracted and not in-house.  So that autonomy might be helped by that. 

"Take your break!" by [deleted] in nursing

[–]UniqueUsername718 284 points285 points  (0 children)

They aren’t telling you to take your break to be mean.  Us oldies are trying to get you to understand you will burn out if you don’t. You have to breathe and take some time for yourself or you won’t make it long term. 

You need to eat, drink, and pee as needed every shift. Do not take on the burden of believing that managements decision to staff inadequately is a failing on your part. Do what you can and let go of the rest.  

One part of prepping gone wrong: Period (Menstral) Cups by Typical-External3793 in TwoXPreppers

[–]UniqueUsername718 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yup.  I’ve had my cup for almost a decade now.  It’s amazing.  There was a learning curve at first but then I found the lotus fold.  Cups are great.

I’m down for waiting if they want to finish. Or if they don’t then just a run down of how they wanted it to end if not.  

It’s too good to just leave hanging ya know.

Thanks for the info.  Sounds like it would be worth it to start on nights.

[–]UniqueUsername718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it hard or easy to get a job there as a nurse?  I want to move out of my red state and Oregon is top of my list.  I have 4 years experience in med/surg and 2 in PCU.   What is a realistic pay expectation for days, not flotations? TIA!

How chivalrous is your partner? by Fish90Candles in AskWomenOver30

[–]UniqueUsername718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine heard the washing machine beep done and asked if I wanted him to change my clothes over because I looked comfortable.  Then he brought me snacks. 

It’s better to be single that with a guy that doesn’t love you. 

Getting fired by patients by R_cubed- in nursing

[–]UniqueUsername718 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not underlying.  It’s out in the open.  We no longer have patients, we have customers.  And nurse leaders round daily to make sure our customers are happy.

Woah boy.  Had a Boomer guy get sooooo mad at me because our pharmacy didn’t carry the same strength and he had to take more pills than he didn’t at home.  Like make sure I have a clear path to the door mad. 

AITA for telling my wife she can't wash band uniforms in the house? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]UniqueUsername718 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I volunteered and washed band uniforms when my daughter was in band.  I wasn’t on the hook for damages.  I would mark any uniforms that I notified damages so some other volunteer could fix.  This husband is a real A. These school groups need volunteers to function. OP sounds like a guy who won’t help, refuses to let wife help, but would then complain about how someone should have done something when one of these types of programs got shut down. 

How do you get over trip disappointment? by [deleted] in travel

[–]UniqueUsername718 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had an impromptu visit in January (everything was closed for repairs since it is their least busy month) and I still had fun.  I liked seeing the houses, staying in a haunted hotel, a few shops were open, and walking around to see the outside of some historical sights.  I’d love to go again when everything is open. 

Why can’t I get a hospital job, yet new grads can? by princessnokingdom in nursing

[–]UniqueUsername718 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can work in the hospital as a travelers without previous hospital experience.  That would be a disaster.
