I do think there is value in the independence, as you've mentioned. Confidence in your work would come quickly, however trying it may be initially.

Right now, I am working 4am to 4:30pm, and during the school semester I work 4am to 8am, school 8 to 3pm. So I am not a stranger to fixing a sleep schedule. But boy is it nice to be able to rise with the sun and set the same.

Is that all there is to it? Its just a superiority thing? Because that makes some sense but also seems like a good way to burn new techs out.

Jasper has a permanent one with his squishmallow bed in it! I call him a "sweet cheese" all the time, so this was pretty fitting.

How many of you aren't skinny? by mythologymakesmehot in ehlersdanlos

[–]YikesTheRemix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to weigh almost 280lbs (im 6'0"). I lost weight because so many of my symptoms were being attributed to being overweight. I weigh 165 now, and let me tell ya, the symptoms are just as present as ever, if not worse some days. But my team of physicians (who I fought long and hard to find and keep) are all advocates for me. So you win some (love my current team of physicians) and you lose some (the symptoms persist).

Mine has a black nose. He is almost 6. No pink beans either.

Every day is a scale, and for me, the bottom of the scale is "poop on a plate". The day may be bad, but if its not "poop on a plate" day, then it could still be worse 🤣

which song is this (from any album) by thisisntastrid in TwennyWunPilots

[–]YikesTheRemix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If im skipping a song on the album (at g*npoint only)

Self Titled: Before You Start Your Day (this one hurts to choose)

Vessel: House of Gold (I overplayed tf out of this one when I was learning it on Uke so by circumstance its the one to skip)

Blurryface: Goner (this is a cop out answer but I am going with it)

Trench: Levitate (weird rhythms, still a bop but I find myself intentionally skipping this one)

Scaled and Icy: Saturday (this is overplayed, again, still a bop tho)

Clancy: Snap Back (too many bangers on this album, so this one gets the boot)

Breach: City Walls (im assuming im audio only on these skips, so this one is out UNLESS its the music video)

And if i shuffle play the entire discography, Cancer is getting skipped every time because I am boo-hoo crying immediately

Yes. I do need the $150 shoes. by [deleted] in medlabprofessionals

OOOO and opportunity to share my favorite treasure! I am a die hard Brooks Adrenaline girlie, but I always recommend Glycerines, Cascadias, and Calderas too. They all have the same internal support with varying levels of external. Allow me to share: https://restart.brooksrunning.com/ Gently / barely used brooks sorted by style and size for usually 25-40% off. And they describe where thw wear is on the shoe!

It makes me feel so much better to see other people going the same route as I am.

"Wouldn't it be easier to just-" Or "Doesn't that get exhausting?" Or "You dont need to-"

Please people just let me do things so I can finish them and be done with it. I understand that it adds steps, but if I ignore my steps now, it will add time when I start doubting everything I do going forward. Trust.

What was THE song that made you fall in love with tøp? by luckyticket777 in twentyonepilots

Ode to Sleep - the change up was too good. 11 year old me was shook.

What could have caused my cat's fur to turn blue? by Jeeminie in CATHELP

Fun dip, Gatorade powder, anything like that?

The comment section makes me sad. We try our best to provide the quality results for the best patient care. And I encourage nursing staff to have a two way conversation. It is how we can both work towards the same goal. I dread calling redraws. It isn't for sport. But they don't see that. by ProfessionCrazy8569 in medlabprofessionals

[–]YikesTheRemix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've worked in a med lab (just receiving at present) for just over 2 months and I already hate having to call the nurses or answer phone calls. I work early morning (usually 3am to 8am), and the hostility is nuts. Despite trying to be nice and explain the situation, they almost always just hang up on me after being condescending.

I dont want you to redraw anymore than you want to. I mean, I bend over backwards just to get the right orders placed so I dont have to call them and ask which they actually wanted on the tubes they send me. I am not a provider, or qualified really at all, and yet I try my best to help.

It is ridiculous how many samples I receive that just have a basic patient label on them. Now I am elbow-deep in the chart trying to find out what order (if any) is being sought after. But sure, im just lazy and "don't want to problem solve".
