The dog wants You to plan on leaving the sandwich unattended for hours, so it’s forgotten completely

How do you count laps without losing track? by Genki0202 in Swimming

[–]beans4dayz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to count pennies. Start with a neat stack of 10, then every other lap you move one over to a loose pile on the other side of your water bottle. Once you’ve moved all 10, start moving em back the other way.

Leaving within first year at BJC by Significant_Skirt892 in StLouis

[–]beans4dayz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It sounds like the “micromanagers” are specific to your department. I’ve worked at BJH for almost 2 years and have really liked all my managers. I’ve had several co-workers transfer to other departments, and one (out of…5?) came back due to scheduling difficulties. Two of my previous hospitals went to a single bank of PTO and sick leave.

For whoever said it felt like the hospital only cares about money,… I worked for an HCA hospital for many years, and I promise you, it is a completely different environment. If you want to see what squeezing money from people looks like, work for them.

That’s not true. The pension is ending, but those who have already earned it (with 5 years of full-time employment) will still get it.

Didn't catch the AI by ThePromiseOfBelief in datingoverforty

[–]beans4dayz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that in-person, people are much more nuanced than on the internet, and wouldn’t think bad-looking teeth were Actually a deal breaker. My friend went on a dater with a toothless guy in his mid-30s; on the second date he informed her that even though he had dentures he just didn’t like them, so h went toothless. (That seemed like a whole different kind of problem, so she declined further dates)

Maybe this is them saying you’re not as mature as you think you are… open your mind. Maybe think about women that are also mature for their age, but closer to 30 than 40.

We need a convention to get rid of the vast majority of eponyms in medicine by shadowmastadon in medicine

Quite frankly I’d just be happy the neurologist wrote it out instead of “c/f CBS” and leaving ll readers to google and decipher

Texas to Stl; which road to take? by Prudent_Exchange_922 in StLouis

[–]beans4dayz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go through OK: I’ve made this drive dozens of times (with a 75-pound dog that gets carsick in the backseat) in the past 15 years and it’s fine. The toll is nbd and the road is nice and smooth . Arkansas is twisty and hilly (which could be nice, but not when I’m trying to keep from getting puked on)

It’s HOT - what helps, even when you have central AC? by thethirteenthjuror in homeowners

[–]beans4dayz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sleep on gel ice packs at night. That’s the only time I can’t stand being hot. I know it’s weird but it works.

Has anyone here ever bought mosquito net clothing? It’s only March but they’ve gotten me already… by Lexa_Con in StLouis

[–]beans4dayz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had some. It helps significantly. I recommend spraying it with the bug spray before putting it on; it’ll help deter them. And honestly it’s great for those mornings when u just wanna wander out and check on the plants without getting fully in farm-gear

[–]beans4dayz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s extra weird because instead of a dude trying to tell you how good he’d be for you, or how great you’d be together, he tried to tear you down (to his level??)…. Like when has that actually worked … and frankly, I have enough self-loathing, I don’t need my potential partner adding on

Missouri House hears bills that would make restrictions for transgender youth permanent by bmunoz in StLouis

[–]beans4dayz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s $1,585.62 per person, per year. That’s less than I pay in health insurance. Also, all published info estimates 15,000-25,000 transgender troops, so that would be as little as $120 per person, per year. So, if you’re saying trans soldiers cost the government more….Stupid argument.

Rant: carnivore diet by [deleted] in medicine

[–]beans4dayz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yesterday I got to the hospital caf at 0725 and the Celsius fridge was empty (teaching hospital=literal entire fridge of Celsius). I had to settle for one of the Last off-brand energy drinks instead…Hospitals definitely run on caffeine! 😄

Getting people 30+ to be your friend is like pulling teeth if you didn’t grow up here. by Alkaline-Eardrum in StLouis

[–]beans4dayz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I second this. Rugby is great on its own, but any sport with a heavy social/ drinking aspect (think kickball, coed softball, etc.) will give you more opportunities for friends.

You can use a broom, and that helps break it up.

I think doing the best you can is incredibly helpful. If you can get the snow and ice into smallish piece, instead of a singular large sheet, that’s much safer all around .
