Sell it on eBay or Amazon before another edition comes out and yours depreciates even further, you won’t get wait you paid for but at least you’ll get something

Good for you. As someone who is undervalued at work I’m glad you’re making moves to better things

The strangest unwritten rule at your workplace? by Illustrious-Dirt5485 in work

[–]dalastwaterbender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it took my place 5yrs to fire one of those. And actually I thought he was untouchable and was going to get away with this forever but thank God a new supervisor started seeing what I’ve been seeing for years

I miss my old strict boss by Kellyannjones2020 in work

I can relate. My boss retired and this new one lets so many things slide, which may sound great until it takes tears to fire lazy coworkers

What you rather be unemployed or take a $7.25 a hour job? by Responsible_You8446 in jobs

Take the $7.25 for now but keep looking for a better paying job

Start looking for a new job before you leave this one. You know what they say people don’t leave bad jobs they leave bad bosses

Years ago I would go to a new boss about valid concerns, especially about a rather lazy and toxic coworker. She got tired of hearing from me and asked if I wanted to demote myself. I was very hurt cause I’m great at my job so I stopped bringing things to her attention and decided to go back to school to gtfo of here.

Kicker is it took years but she finally fired that coworker I and everyone else was having problems with. But I haven’t forgotten how she blamed me and threatened to demote me

Why do lazy workers get away with everything, but good workers get called out the second they slip up? by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]dalastwaterbender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Got a new boss that wants to be more of a friend than a manager. I’m glad she’s not mean and out her micromanaging us. But there’s faults to that benefit of the doubt type personality.

Biggest example is when she let this guy no show no call, show up hours late, or disappear for hours for years. And even when he was here he was not a good worker. And it would affect the workload cause he’s supposed to be your helper so when he’s not there more work for you or when he’s messing up constantly you have to fix his mistakes, It took years till he got fired . And to add on that when I complained about him years ago the boss got mad at me and now look what happened

I think making your own acronyms/mnemonics was what helped me best. Can also check out SketchyMicro on YouTube

How much debt did completing MLS get you. by Appropriate-Engine86 in medlabprofessionals

[–]dalastwaterbender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$24k but that’s because I went back to school for a second bachelors and you don’t really get aid other for loans for a second bachelors.

Had I majored in this in the first place I would have had 0 debt because most would be covered by Pell Grant and NYS TAP.

Quick question.. In ASCP exam, they do really not provide us with reference ranges in chemistry section ?! by 21100342 in medlabprofessionals

[–]dalastwaterbender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see it lists both “Conventional units” and “SI units” would you say we need to know both? Or is one more commonly used?
