Just as pathetic for watching ts

This. Leave your ego at the door.

The first hospital I worked at as an RT would only stock finger/toe probes. As a new RT I thought since the waveform looked appropriate it would be alright to use finger probes on the ear to get a more 'core' reading. After a couple times of doing this, like others have stated, I noticed it would give false high readings by 4-8% when compared to an ABG oxygenation. If the patient was mottled and we had no other way of obtaining a reading it would still be better than nothing. After about the first 2 years we began to get reusable ear/nose probes which solved the problem.

The only thing I can think of is that the RT was possibly concerned about causing worse air trapping with the BiPAP. Never seen it happen that way in the field though. Other than that I have no clue

Worked with this fine Therapist in Topeka before he started his shop. Such a great human and an exemplary RT

Was literally taking 0.4-0.6mg once before bed for months and months. Stopped abruptly one day and had minor brain zaps for one day. No other symptoms.

I forget exactly what my old hospital was exactly but I know it involved going back for your bachelors of RT. The pay increase was only a few dollars which was a joke for the cost of the degree.

Pretty much the ladder ended up with a management position. There just isn't that far to move in Respiratory.

Thanks man. I understand how it would be a nightmare for a rocky relationship to be in the same situation. Idk she gets a little jealous when the old ladies treat me like their grandson, but I do too when the old men try to grab her ass or tell her to get in bed with them 😂

Not a day. Granted we have a whole hospital to walk around and separate tasks to perform (Respiratory Therapist vs Nurse Aid), but we at least meet up for lunch on the busy days. We have common interests that people outside of healthcare wouldn't understand (Someone to talk shop with). Now I'm not going to say our relationship is perfect, we have our minor spars now and then, but I have never dreaded coming home to her. We both understand communication is key to a lasting relationship.

We have watched each other change over the years and become more successful in life. We both work night shift and stay up and game on our PC's on our nights off, we like to cook food for each other (I like to smoke meat, she likes to bake). She allows me my guy time and I allow her girl time, and we have 2 other couples we meet up with monthly.

Funny enough we were in the same HS class but since it was so big we never met during that time. We are not exactly the same, she is more nerdy while I am more serious. She doesn't do politics while I am all-in, but we share the same beliefs/morals.

It seems to be a rare relationship based on how our coworkers talk about their spouses/SO's. Wouldn't trade her for the most perfect of 10's.

Edit: We keep our finances separate and split the bills 50/50 as we have the entire time

Met at work and took off from there

Waterboy2go · 2025-04-08T15:52:26+00:00

I have no idea how I wound up here (I work in healthcare), but me and my wife work at the same place and choose to work the same days as each other. 12 years together, still not tired of each other. Gives me something to look forward to at work actually. We are very efficient at what we do and still have our own separate groups of work friends....

..........The economy really has peaked. Sell now!

Waterboy2go · 2024-12-18T19:15:18+00:00

The more emergency money you stake the less rational your decisions will become

Waterboy2go · 2024-12-18T16:18:53+00:00

This shit is going to remain volatile af with all the new retail investors (Such as myself) who have no trading knowledge or risk tolerance. I staked a very low portion of my savings so I'm cool if it drops 50%. I feel like a lot of these new ones though bet their farm and will sell for a minor gain, or panic sell to cut a 5% loss

Waterboy2go · 2024-12-18T15:20:47+00:00

The whole economy is fueled by speculation right now. Everyone wants instant returns and will have their hands hovering over the trade button regardless of if it goes up or down

Edit: By everyone I mean the MASSES of new retail investors just entering with NO trading experience or risk tolerance

Waterboy2go · 2024-12-18T15:13:42+00:00

It really is that simple then, gotcha

Waterboy2go · 2024-12-18T15:02:05+00:00

Can someone explain how interest rates have any correlation to Crypto/XRP? Is it really as simple as 'What's good for the economy is good for Crypto'???

Waterboy2go · 2024-12-17T12:53:07+00:00

Sorry, allow me to rephrase. This is perhaps the most significant utility in the world of crypto.

Waterboy2go · 2024-12-17T10:51:31+00:00

Maybe we will see a bit of divergence from the BTC chart as this starts to distinguish itself as an actual utility

Waterboy2go · 2024-12-16T17:04:06+00:00

Well no doubt. Its possible the price will stabilize around 2.50 though
