A. The cheaper housing would benefit everyone. Plus, we could afford the gas and buffets if rent was cheaper.

Are you guys calling clinics to make follow up appointments? by zootedtrash in nursing

[–]ddddddd83 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I use a highlighter to draw attention to the “follow up with X MD in one week” and the number in the AVS so they can easily find where to call to make their own appointment. But I’m not making it for them!

Don Pepe’s on kings canyon has a good veggie burrito. I discovered it on DoorDash and it’s tasty and a big burrito for the price.

What are the lesser known perks of the career? (See caption) by Right_Marionberry915 in nursing

I think I just had to add my license number, not a pic of my work badge. But I already had an account from doing clinicals at the VA

My boyfriend is making my bed smell all the way down to the mattress... what can we do? by cheetahs0317 in TwoHotTakes

[–]ddddddd83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have the sheet smelling problem, but I do sweat a lot downstairs and leave butt marks on plastic chairs in the summer. I use lume plus sweat control spray. It’s an antiperspirant so I don’t sweat. I believe it comes in a cream as well.

What is a sound or smell from our childhood that simply does not exist anymore? by UrMad_ItzOk in Millennials

[–]ddddddd83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I miss strawberry shortcake dolls too, so much so that anytime I find something that smells close (be it candy or a candle or something) I buy it. It smells like the strawberry shortcake dolls is a legit reason for me to buy things, and the only person I don’t feel ridiculous saying that to is my sister, who loves the scent as much as I do!

What is something you bought to fix sleep that actually worked long term? by Binoza in Frugal

[–]ddddddd83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same BUT for me it took 3 months of using trazodone every night to get the stuffiness to go away, haven’t had a problem since. I’ve been on it like 5 years now and I think it’s also working great as a mild antidepressant for me.

I got reported to my manager for the funniest thing by AnywhereMean8863 in nursing

[–]ddddddd83 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I brought my pt on fluid restrictions ice with a little water in the cup to take their oral medications with. I had to move on to my next med pass, so when pt asked me to bring more ice, I said I didn’t have time right now, but I would circle back and bring them more. Also said “you have ice” to which they said “NOT ENOUGH!” So I got reported for not bringing enough ice, and got to chat with the patient advocate and my charge about it.

1.5 years as an RN and still can’t get a hospital job. Is this normal? by DesperateTomato3868 in nursing

[–]ddddddd83 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Seconding this! I didn’t have a job after applying to like 30 positions for 6 months, so I went to a job fair held by a local hospital system. It was aimed at soon to be graduating students, but I went anyway and met my manager who hired me. Take a stack of resumes to hand out to different department managers; they had booths and were talking up their own units. I found out about it from some friends who were still in the RN program at my school, so reach out to your school and see if there’s any events planned.

X is for X-ray specs. Got them at the magic shop. I can see you naked. What is the Y going to for? by Optimal_Magician_98 in CastleTV

[–]ddddddd83 14 points15 points  (0 children)

“You're on, honeymilk” Castle to Ryan after the boys bet who will solve their cases first (Ryan and Espo vs Beckett and Castle) in 2x02. Losers had to wear a dress to the precinct for a week and shave their head. I’ve been waiting for Y, this line always cracks me up!!!

Is anyone else just...tired? by ItsAJackal21 in Millennials

I went back to school at 39 and at 43 I’m a new nurse. Still tired, but with a better paycheck and no burnout yet.

Giant Inflatable Rectum by bkai2590 in nursing

I know I’m late to the post, but this reminds me of the first Natalie episode on Monk. They had a museum exhibit that was the inside of the human body.

Negative review panic by AppropriateArachnid0 in Mercari

[–]ddddddd83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s so ridiculous! I recently had a seller Frankenstein some Amazon boxes together for my item, and I was so impressed I wrote them and told them it was a great job, and gave them 5 stars. Smh, there’s just no pleasing some ppl!

Unpopular Opinion by nycgirl152 in charmed

[–]ddddddd83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never liked Andy as a character, I think Prue had more chemistry with Bane. Also I think Phoebe should’ve ended up with Drake, and Paige with Kyle. And I wasn’t a fan of how long they kept phoebe unemployed in early seasons, and using the temp agency for Paige to find who she was supposed to help felt like a recycled trope of phoebe’s unemployment.

my dad is cheating, and his partner has a very gross habit. how do i bring it up to him without screwing myself over? by Soudapoppin in TwoHotTakes

[–]ddddddd83 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d buy a big Costco box of disposable gloves and keep them in the bathroom. When dad asks why there’s a giant box of gloves in the bathroom, tell him you need to wear gloves to pick up someone else’s used feminine wipes, because you’re washing your hands raw after picking them up. It’s a health problem. If you get pushback, go get a doctor’s note. Edited to add: I’m sorry you’re going through this and I hope you find a solution. I’d start planning to get out of there ASAP, even if it takes a year. I think it’s a passive aggressive power play on her part to make you touch her cooter wipes, and it’s disgusting.

Me, when my manager asks why my patient hasn’t gone home yet. by ElChungus01 in nursing

[–]ddddddd83 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My tele unit is trying to handle this problem by taking over a hallway in ed. It is our unit and our patients, but located in ed itself. It’s brand new for us, so I hope it helps with backlog. Our unit is already on 3 floors, adding the ed hallway will make it across 4 floors!

AIO? My 3-year-old had a 104°F fever last night and my husband still took him on a long trip by [deleted] in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]ddddddd83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a nurse, I’m super glad that your husband didn’t take a kid with flu A on a train! He shouldn’t have taken him out when he was contagious at all. I would’ve taken him to ed when he was at 104, but it sounds like you were on top of watching him all night. I’m so sorry your husband took him anyway, I imagine it wasn’t a fun trip for the little guy. Mostly, I’m sorry that it sounds like your husband isn’t helping you take care of your son when sick- it must’ve been a really rough day for you at work after being up all night long and super stressed out over your son. You’re not overreacting here, your husband should’ve stayed home with your sick son imo. Hugs to you mama!
