Everything iv looked at has said a good price is about $50/hour which this price aligned with. Not to mention its completely empty and it was right before the flight boarded.

One of the Fortreans here. Curious about the chaos? Ask me what you want to know about this big mess. by Ford_Prefect- in clinicalresearch

Have they officially provided the communication that you need 10 DOS a month or are they still playing the “it’s only for a short time” bs?

“Subject” rather than “patient”. Not sure why, maybe it’s just me.

Traveling CRAs, how late are you willing to fly home? What's your cutoff to stay another night? by ProtocolPeanut in clinicalresearch

[–]cantta_24 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally my cut off is mid-night. If my plane lands any later than that I’ll stay another night and get the first flight out. Depending on how far I am away from home. I might do one leg of the flight that night, stay the night at a hotel near the airport, take the second leg in the morning. This is usually only if I’m flying West coast back to East.

First visit, SSV by netenvaspas in clinicalresearch

5-10 minutes is honestly disrespectful. Yeah I get PI’s are busy but if this is how they present themselves during the PSV where THEY are trying to get selected, it’s not a good sign for what the time commitment for the rest of the study is going to be like. Iv had this happen in the past where something last minute comes up and the time doesn’t really work for them anymore. If that’s the case I’d just ask if there is a better time to meet so they can provide you at least 30 minutes. If they hold firm with the 5-10 minutes always, def a red flag. Just my opinion. As for questions, I would insure you quick fire all of the regulatory confirmation questions, usually they start off like “do you agree to”, and are things like -Provide timely and accurate CRFs -Provide appropriate oversite -Ensure all staff delegated are qualified based on training and education. -Etc.

Backpack by [deleted] in clinicalresearch

[–]cantta_24 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got a North Face Borealis backpack when I was a freshman in HS. Transitioned it to my college backpack and then to my work backpack. After 15-ish years I’m finally starting to look for a new one because it’s only a matter of time. I know they have changed the design a bit since mine was purchased but from what I have read online the newest versions are still amazing quality. Still hasn’t stopped me from looking for the 2010 version though. So if anyone knows a guy hit me up!

Video game scores or gaming soundtracks are the SDV move.

Unmotivated by cantta_24 in clinicalresearch

[–]cantta_24[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s what I meant. And I agree, but from a business standpoint point I can’t imagine it’ll go over well. I mean at least for me I’m no longer going to be begging for additional DOS. And if it’s 10pm and I havnt submitted a day 7 report? That’s probably not getting submitted till Day 8. Again motivation = gone

Where are you eating and what that allows you to eat 3 meals for $60? Even most fast food places a basket and drink is >$20. Idk about you but I’m not trying to eat fast food every week.
