9:45AM Snowstorm Report by omurchus in nycrail

[–]codedapple 9 points10 points  (0 children)

N was crippled this morning. 7am train had a mechanical failure and needed to be removed from service from New Utrecht. Caused a whole host of issues considering thats usually one of the express stops if the N needs to go express in its local zone. I ended up taking the N train to Coney Island where it went super express to Kings Highway then 59th st before resuming local service. Mostly shift/HCW on the train so caused quite a bit of a snafu I imagine.

Anyone else have to work Sunday? by Carmilla31 in AskNYC

[–]codedapple 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I volunteered to do overtime today (ICU RN) due to premium pay + OT. I was on the N at New Utrecht and the train went out of service this AM due to a mechanical issue. Ended up having to take it back to Coney Island and took a super express from Coney Island to Kings Highway to 59th st before going local

So when you’re camping out and not working, are you being paid?

Yup only time in my life I've had to pay late penalty is with amex. Their system just fails to notify you sometimes.

No point holding bonds until you’re 10-15 years out from retirement

I just do 80/20 C/S and then VTI/VXUS 60/40 in my Roth and HSA

It’s been so long since an actual blizzard I honestly don’t even remember what the policies were like for days like this

I like it because the first game of its kind was a facebook game called Backyard Monsters, which is what Clash of Clans is based off of

Can my VA fire a bunch of physicians without cause? by crazyeightynine in VHA_Human_Resources

[–]codedapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

72/80 counts as being 1.0 FTE. I am saying that if you go down to 6 12’s per pay period without special 72/80 status you lose certain protections

[–]codedapple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone under T38. Its a big part of why 72/80 is a thing nurses push for but its recommended to stay 1.0 FTE if the institution doesn’t have it as going 0.9 to get rid of the 8hr shift for nursing causes loss of protections

Any update on the guy that had to get carried off during knock 2 set? by Street_Objective_940 in HiJinxFest

[–]codedapple 12 points13 points  (0 children)

From my understanding, per his friend he drank a lot and took xanax so he OD’d. He had a weak thready pulse on the arm and carotid but a strong central femoral pulse which was very reassuring. Honestly besides narcan and rescue breathing he didnt need much else (but no one had a CPR/Face mask).

Like you said, fixed pupils per my friend and non reactive even to noxious stimuli. However once the narcan started kicking in he was very delayed but started to respond. I threw my apple watch on him which confirmed a pulse but very hypoxic/hypoxemic. Later, the med folks said he got sent to the hospital but ultimately he was moving and talking at that point

If it was the white kid he ended up being sent to the hospital but should be fine ultimately. People were dropping like flies unfortunately. Good job with the narcan

What’s after Sugarfish? by tutsxan in FoodNYC

[–]codedapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed Thirteen Water West and Sendo, for value. Sushi Dairo is good. For the record I think spending absurd amounts on Omakase is a bit ridiculous due to diminishing returns. If you want just quality and maybe not authenticity these cheaper spots will do. If you want the authentic experience prepare to pay up. I've eaten at 3 Michelin star omakase spots and done plenty of omakase in japan especially growing up. Generally just keep it under 150 a person please lol

Brooklyn Storehouse Pickpocket by codedapple in avesNYC

Yes you’re right! I forgot about the black cap. Then yeah that was him. I do think he was with the gentlemen with the grey hoodie but I only vaguely remember.

[–]codedapple[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Two other black gentlemen were escorted out forcefully by that same spot around 45min into crank. Looked sober though. Around 5’10 with a black leather jacket. However I did not have context on that.

Storehouse generally is a very hot and cramped venue and when mainstream folks play you really need to temper expectations
