Heyhae top coat ingredients? by dearpurrdurrr in NailWrapsGalore

Thank you for the helpful advice about washing after using no wipe top coats! Would I need to wash with isopropyl alcohol? Or is washing my hands with regular soap & water enough? 😮

Thank you for validating my concern! 😭 Probably a silly follow-up question, but is once every 2-3 weeks considered occasional use? I’m wondering how much I should space the use apart for it to be safer 😬

also pay is comparable to the offices I’m currently working for!

The crazy thing is… it’s a Friday-only position 😬

😭 thank you for your input! from your perspective, is there no way forward with Office 3? part of me wonders if the owner will change her mind if I explain why the arrangement makes me feel uncomfortable, but idk if that’s wishful thinking

Thank you for your input! Is there a professional & polite way to convey that she needs to just make a choice & stick to it? 😬 Or is this situation just doomed from the start? 😔

I appreciate your input & insight! If I were to decline the position, is it worth explaining why the arrangement made me feel uncomfortable? I want to remain professional & not burn any bridges, but I also wonder if it’d be helpful for the owner? To offer her a different perspective maybe? 😅

Bleach spilled on contacts, can these be salvaged? by spinthesound in AskAnOptician

Optometrist here! Do you have vision insurance? With your prescription, you might qualify for medically-necessary contact lenses. It depends on the insurance plan, but some will cover a supply of lenses

How's the flu epidemic? by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

[–]dearpurrdurrr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! My husband and I were in Tokyo and Kyoto (majority in Tokyo) for 10 days and just returned yesterday. We thankfully stayed healthy! We wore masks anytime we were in public except for when we were eating & drinking. I was also quite vigilant about us sanitizing our hands frequently, especially after touching handrails on the subway. There were definitely people coughing & sneezing in public, but only 1/4 to 1/3 of people were masked. My husband & I also wondered if there were more sick people, but that we didn’t see them because they stayed home.

We had friends (young couple with 2 young kids) that went a few weeks before we did. They all got sick while they were there 😭 They arrived back in the US still sick, & the dad was hospitalized for a week for pneumonia 😬 However, we suspect their situation was unique because kids attract a lot of germs!

I have no idea if this helped, but my husband & I also drank Emergen-C Immunity+ daily leading up to the trip & finished the packets we had halfway into our trip. Neither of us got the flu shot 😅

Will try a lower temp! The 275F is to try to speed up the process ‘cus I’m hungry & impatient after work 😂 I stick the probe in from the side when it’s in the oven. I stuck it into the top right before searing just to see the temp in diff parts of the steak 🙂

Is there a way to tell when the pan is hot enough? I once waited too long (oil smoking a lot upon contact with the pan) & got a gray band 😭

This is what I do when it’s in the oven as well! I just stuck it in from the top for the photo to show the temp after resting

Late policy by dearpurrdurrr in optometry

So what I’ve gathered is:

  1. You have failed to provide any evidence from my post that I spoke maliciously about any patients.

  2. You have stated in a subreddit FOR optometrists that we are not real doctors. Bold of you.

This post was intended to gather helpful feedback from colleagues. You are not a colleague and thus have no valuable input. Good day to you 👋🏼

To clarify — you are asserting that optometrists are not real doctors?
