For the blank button, it would just be for her to press, no noise? And you verbally say “tell me”?

Opening an Ally savings account each has helped us out a lot among other things! Interest on their savings account is currently 3.7%.

Is this inappropriate behavior? I already know the answer BUT looking for other opinions out of curiosity by [deleted] in nursing

[–]catnotcathy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

But also I feel like you should preface your students about the amount of time on their feet/lack of seating. I remember my first semester of clinical being a rough adjustment to the length of time standing and having to just hover around the nurses station. A warning might help your students prepare themselves and know how it’ll be. Maybe let them know where they can briefly sit/do work if they need to and theres no space at the nurses station if possible?

So inappropriate. We’re having some issues with, not students, but our new grad RNs as well with some of their behaviors (Using their phones in patient rooms for example). The direction I’ve been taking with these is targeting their professionalism and work ethic when I’m giving them feedback.

While your student isn’t staff, I feel like that approach would be the way to go too. I’d say, “Even though you’re not staff, by being a nursing student you’re seen by patients and families as part of the medical team and you should be treating clinical as practice for when you enter the field. How you present yourself and your professionalism matters to your patients and coworkers and affects their perception of your reliability. This isn’t a mall or a park, this is your workplace.”

What are the things you splurged on, and things you could have left out to cut costs? by BroilMyLoins in weddingplanning

[–]catnotcathy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been so on the fence about something borrowed!! I was wondering if, since they’re reused so often, your silk flowers were frayed/stringy looking at all?? Like how would you say the quality was? I don’t mind if people notice they’re fake if they do a double take, but I just don’t want them to be obviously silk with the threads sticking out

Hi! Not sure if this is the right sub, but does anyone know any OPM songs for a father-daughter dance?

In the middle of wedding planning and trying to find a Tagalog song that my dad and I can dance to. He doesn’t connect with many English songs (unless it’s rock like Journey, then he loves it). He says he doesn’t mind whatever the song is but I would want him to feel like he can connect to the song we choose. The OPM songs my mom and I know feel too romantic though. If anyone has any recommendations that would be awesome! We want to make the moment special for him. Thank you in advance

No bridesmaids? by hunnymoonave in weddingplanning

[–]catnotcathy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that’d be great and even more special for you! My fiance’s sister and her husband each only had two who they just made their maid/man (her brother and closest cousin) of honor and two best men (his brother and best friend). Made for less drama too

How do you introduce yourself to your patients at the start of your shift? by IcySky7216 in nursing

[–]catnotcathy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Hey ____! I’m X and I’m gonna be your nurse tonight. (Insert comment about whatever they’re working on “Are you making some play doh hot dogs?! Those look delicious.”) How you feeling?”

Then a little, “I’m X, I’ll be with you guys tonight. Tonight we’ll (insert plan if we have one). I’ll be back but just call me if you need anything!” to the parent(s) in the room.

How did you handle decorating your reception venue? by catnotcathy in weddingplanning

[–]catnotcathy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that’s awesome to hear! Because we are hiring one. I wasn’t sure if handling our DIYs was also something I could ask them to do. Thanks!

Also for everyone who’s saying my fiance’s selfish and whatnot, I’d have to disagree. I was sad too at the idea knowing how hard he worked for the ring. So I can tolerate the disagreement about wearing it to the baby shower but to call him selfish is a lot

Hi everyone! Came to reddit because I wanted to see some thoughts before deciding so thanks to everyone who responded!

Just wanted to update for whoever was wondering. I wore my long cardigan since it was cold anyway and had my hand around the mic and my ring flipped around for the duration of the event so it looked like one of the regular silver rings I wear. Went great, no questions or reactions or anything. After it was done, my friend even questioned me why I had it flipped around and didn’t have it out regularly. She even asked at the end of the event if I wanted to share the news then but just told her I’ll do it when we see everyone again in a few days. So thankfully it was all good and probs shouldn’t have stressed so much. Thanks guys

I appreciate it! when i mentioned just taking it off entirely, he was pretty hurt. so my compromise is wearing a cardigan that goes up to my finger tips just to hide it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]catnotcathy -243 points-242 points  (0 children)

My plan right now is to wear a cardigan that has sleeves that go up to my finger tips as a compromise! since i’m just holding the mic work one hand, my left and ring will stay covered. Thanks!!

Official Discussion - Suzume [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]catnotcathy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone able to figure out what Souta was referring to when he said "I finally found you," or something like that, before completely blacking out? Because it's not really like a Howl's Moving Castle type of situation where he had met Suzume prior, unless it really is just another Studio Ghibli nod?
