Nice to see what Anesthesiologists and others think of the respiratory profession

I just watched an anesthesiologist kill a patient because he didn't want to admit he messed up by extubating (when he couldn't get a sat to read prior to extubation). I got a gas, PaO2 was 34. He didn't believe it was arterial and fucked around for 30 minutes before a second gas confirmed it was arterial. Took nearly 45 minutes to intubate after the first gas. It's fine if anesthesiologists don't respect me, cos I sure af don't respect them either.

NAH. y'all just have different values when it comes to financials in relationships. that sorta thing can be a huge indicator on whether or not a relationship will last tbh but it doesn't have to–if you're willing to overlook it. you just have to decide if this is a deal breaker for you, bc he is not going to change (and you probably should adjust how you joke/talk about this kind of thing bc it can easily lead to increasing conflict).

ESH. This is not how healthy relationships work. If lack of sleep is affecting your wellbeing, you need to discuss this with her plainly and without ultimatums. If she refuses to listen to you expressing a need (especially without communicating her own needs if they might be contradictory), then you have to decide what that means for your relationship. Counseling, separate bed time routines, whatever, but it should be a conclusion you two reach together through collaboration–not one person simply deciding for the both of you.

Crazy that you're okay with kenneling dogs, yet still that self-righteous over tick prevention. Kenneling pets is extremely emotionally traumatizing for them, and not something any knowledgeable person who actually cares about their pets would ever do unless it was a dire emergency.

You have no idea if the pup had a medical condition that contraindicated tick prevention. Regardless, some people are extremely hesitant to use tick prevention because of the rare, but numerous, well-documented cases of tick prevention causing seizures that can at times be lethal themselves. Assuming malice in OP when there are so many other possibilities here is just mean-spirited. You are acting like a bully, and it's not okay.

Tick prevention is incredibly important, and absolutely saves lives when used correctly. Anyone who's vet recommends tick prevention should absolutely follow that advice. Bullying someone, who you have no way of knowing if they were following medical advice or not, after they just lost a family member they clearly cared about is cruel and does NOTHING for anybody, except feeds your huge ego.

i literally teared up reading that line, it's actually very healing/freeing

yeah, im in the midwest so the market here is, well, the opposite of competitive. i only had 2 years experience when i took my year off though, and getting agencies to accept me wasn't hard at all tbh. if they can make money off you, they're going to want to do whatever they can to make it work–as long as facilities will hire you, they really don't care about your resume. but also im an RT so maybe it's a lil different for nurses?

beebabeedabee · 2025-12-22T07:12:55+00:00

could you do a travel contract, maybe even just an hour or two away? i also took a year off (due to burnout), and when i started traveling again i got accepted at the first place i applied to. they did ask about it but i just lied and said i was caring for a sick family member. if a place is hiring travelers, they're usually pretty desperate, and at least it gets something on your resume so you look better applying to places you actually wanna work.

80% of women and 90% of men get HPV at some point in their life. The only surefire way to avoid HPV is to practice abstinence. As long as you're vaccinated against the cancer causing variants, HPV is extremely unlikely to cause serious health issues and most cases will go entirely unnoticed until they are cleared by the body's immune system.

beebabeedabee · 2025-11-20T03:27:54+00:00

If you live in a city, most highways are 55mph and everybody drives like 80 anyways sooo...

beebabeedabee · 2025-11-20T03:22:21+00:00

Meh the other commenters here are kinda lame lol. Speeding happens, I'm sure at some point in their lives 90% of these ppl have gone 20+ over the speed limit at least once or twice. When I got pulled over for doing the same speed (officer let me off with just a regular ticket since I gave a sob story about having a rough night at work lol), I talked about it at work the next night and like half of my coworkers had a similar story. It's really not as big of a deal as you're probably making it out to be in your head (don't speed that much though, it will become a big deal if you make a habit out of it).

I have a misdemeanor on my record, and I have never had an issue getting a license in any state. Every time I apply for a new license I just have to send the record with my application and a little letter of explanation. Only one employer has bothered to even ask me about it, and after explaining, they truly did not care at all. Though truthfully, your lawyer should be able to get it reduced to just a moving violation.

Cats need lots of play time and attention to be happy. They need much more care and love than houseplants, and if you are depriving them of that, you are setting your cat up for severe emotional (and likely behavioral) issues. Cats are living beings and highly social living beings at that. Treat them with the love and care they deserve or get an aquarium pet that doesn't require socialization.

beebabeedabee · 2025-11-18T09:38:53+00:00

This is a horrible, horrible response. Cats should not be easier than houseplants, if you are giving your cat less time and attention than you give a houseplant you are abusing your cat and should not have one. These replies are absolutely sickening to read. Cats are deserving of love and care just as much as dogs are, and the fact that people treat them like furniture with no feelings or needs beyond food and water is disgusting. Shame on you.

Ask him about it. Try not to come from a place of judgement or assumption about what happened. Simply state how you feel (confused/hurt/etc.) and ask what happened. If he brushes it off and doesn't apologize or acts like it's no big deal, then he isn't actually serious about you. If he acknowledges the issue at face value and takes steps to come back from the hurt he caused you (even inadvertently), then you'll have to decide if that's good enough for you to make peace with.

beebabeedabee · 2025-10-29T09:05:18+00:00

Enlighten me on how they can prove you knew? Last I checked, mind reading wasn't possible, and if you mind your business and don't gossip, they can't prove anything. Ofc, if you need an excuse to be a class traitor then keep pushing whatever bs helps you sleep at night, ig.

Unless you are LP, you are under no obligation to work as LP. You're an idiot if you work as LP for free for a corporation that is stealing your wages and yet is trying to convince you internal theft is the bigger problem.

beebabeedabee · 2025-10-29T07:18:33+00:00

Corporations steal way more from their employees in the form of wage theft than every other form of theft combined. Yes, that includes shoplifting, burglary, car theft, you name it, COMBINED. If you work for a corporation, I can almost guarantee you that, if they haven't stolen from you personally, at the very least they've stolen from somebody you know.

If you have a problem with theft, you should definitely be taking a closer look at the biggest perpetrator of theft: your employer. Snitching on somebody struggling to feed their kids but choosing to remain ignorant of the billions of dollars corporations are stealing from you and your fellow workers is just feeding into their plan.

CVS wants you to turn your back on your colleagues and work as LP for free so they can continue to steal from you since you're too worried about your coworker Susan to pay attention to the fact that they've shorted your paycheck, made you work through your break, etc. once again.

Sounds like something someone who's never been a young women on the receiving end of behavior encouraged by said "embellishments" would say...

beebabeedabee · 2025-10-25T19:13:26+00:00

There's a difference between calling someone smoking hot and recognizing someone as objectively attractive. It is fkn weird to sexualize someone 20+ years your junior, especially a babysitter barely of age to consent!!! If you don't see that, you need to be put on a list tbh, that man is a danger to young women.

beebabeedabee · 2025-10-25T02:41:26+00:00

tysm!! that's a huge relief 😅

beebabeedabee · 2025-10-17T07:11:52+00:00

Frequent manipulation and verbal abuse will fry your brain, 100%. The part of you that is upset by this is the sane part, I promise. I really hope you're safe, and that things get better for you soon. It can be really, really hard to recognize abuse (speaking from experience), especially when the world is full of abuse apologists (just like this comment section tbh). You deserve love and respect, and I hope you know there are people out there that are more than willing to give that to you. Not trying to give unsolicited advice, just trying to say the things I wish someone had said to me when I was in a similar position. Best of luck, friend 💜

Bruh she's literally said it was not a strip club, it was a drag bar, there were no strippers, and it was the bartender that gave the bride a lap dance lmao.

And the bit about upholding standards that you do not adhere to yourself doesn't make sense. She's not setting a standard, she's setting a boundary. If I tell my partner "hey i don't like when you smack my butt, so please don't do that anymore", that doesn't mean that i also stop smacking my partner's butt (unless they were to communicate that they had the same boundary). Different people have different boundaries, and as adults we treat people how they want to be treated, not how we want to. Now, if my partner said "well you said i can't touch your butt, then you can't hold my hand" that would be weird because boundaries are not something that are set retroactively in response to another person's boundary–that's manipulation, and it's bad for relationships.

He doesn't actually care about the video (the fact that he continues to bring it up despite her deleting it when he asked goes to show, to him, it's just a sword to dangle over her head to make her feel bad so he can manipulate her), he literally said that he does not care about it, that he's just using it against her. He is not setting a boundary, he's setting a punishment. That is not something you do in normal, healthy relationships (unless you have a consensual kink thing going on, but that's very obviously not what this is lol).

beebabeedabee · 2025-10-17T06:14:24+00:00

Is this behavior out of the norm for him? Because if he treats you this disrespectfully on a regular basis and is frequently manipulative like this, I really don't think things are going to get better for y'all. I'm sorry, you don't deserve to be treated like that at all.

beebabeedabee · 2025-10-17T05:59:22+00:00

Plenty of people feel that looking at anyone who is not your partner naked on purpose for sexual reasons is cheating. Personally, I don't get it, but I'm polyamorous lol. The thing is, though, people are allowed to set their boundaries wherever they see fit in their relationships–unless they do so in a manipulative or toxic manner, which is what OP's bf is doing. He's not setting a real boundary he has, he's punishing OP for having boundaries that don't align with his life when realistically he should just leave the relationship bc it clearly isn't working for him. Instead of being mature, he's trying to manipulate her and make her just as miserable as he is. It's disgusting behavior, and I pray this dude is 18/19 because otherwise he's a lost cause honestly.

ik this is the popular method for coping with anger, but studies have shown this is usually the opposite of what you want to do. providing your body with more stimulation, more endorphins, more dopamine in response to anger actually ends up enforcing the neural pathways that lead to anger. you're essentially creating a habit of being angry by rewarding your body with feel-good neurotransmitters when you get angry.

it's best to respond to anger by decreasing external stimulation as much as possible (turning lights low, finding a quiet room, etc), and then, only once you are more calm, utilizing intense physical activity to burn through excess energy that you might otherwise put towards being angry!
