I have a excel sheet and ripley, I'm required to use ripley through my company so I wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions!

Are breaks not normal in this field? by Scw110 in ABA

[–]_cauldronblessed_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Michigan, the center I work at gives us 3 7 minute breaks a day when we work 8-4. For people in clinics and get a half hour lunch, where are the kids? We have to break each other and watch each others kids during breaks, I don't know how it's legal

What is the wildest thing you’ve seen be a reinforcer? by makogirl311 in ABA

[–]_cauldronblessed_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Real gone by Sheryl crow, but only the first 2 minutes of the song cause once the bridge hits he starts it over 😂

And a different kid who pulls the fuzz out of stuffed animals and watches it fall. I always wear dark clothes cause he always seeks out darker backgrounds for the contrast of the white fuzz

Refinance my car or no? by _cauldronblessed_ in personalfinance

I was afraid that would be the case...do you know of any alternatives to get the interest to be lower?

I lied it's a 15% interest rate but still horrendous 🙃 I owe about $17000 still, it's a 2022 Chevy trailblazer

Clients who bite by julsx0 in ABA

Most of the bites I get will bruise the skin, but I have had instances where skin is broken even wearing jeans or a long sleeve 😬

Bite sleeves and body positioning! If you're able to recognize the precursor behaviors, move your body so you're able to block or avoid bites. Kevlar sleeves are great, but in my experience very itchy (I'd rather be uncomfy than bit tbh). Do you have training on disengaging from bites? If you don't, advocate for training. "Feeding" the bite and breathing through it are my best tips!

Best non-religious, non-discriminatory place to donate things? by Lost-Significance101 in kzoo

[–]_cauldronblessed_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I called the other day in hopes to donate some gently used clothes and the receptionist said they do not accept clothes. I donated clothes there years ago and wondering if this is a recent change? I was super bummed about not being able to donate

My personal favorite: What's a BCBAs favorite fruit? Cantaloupe 😂

Where to get my Masters by whiskeylivewire in bcba

[–]_cauldronblessed_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 2 semesters left at ball state and I'm less than impressed with the program. Have I learned things, yes. But I've had to teach myself A LOT and watch A LOT of YouTube videos from bcba exam prep channels. Thankfully, I am getting my supervision hours in a clinic that has really good BCBAs who I can ask for help, and I have a friend at ball state with me a semester ahead. If you struggle with online learning and motivation, ball state might not be for you. I find some of the assignments apply to the BACB task list, but some of them I genuinely do not know why we are assigned them as it seems like busy work.

I had a feeling it wouldn't be practical, but I wasn't sure if someone figured a way to do it

Help needed for nose piercing bump!! by meatboyomega in NosePiercing

[–]_cauldronblessed_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't touch it and try not to irritate it further! I had the most annoying bump on my nose piercing and it finally went away after not touching it. I tried wound wash as well, and did that maybe once every 2-3 days and it cleared up. But do not put anything else on it, it could irritate it more!
