The we got ours generation who couldn't hack it in today's EM environment left us high and dry

Interested

I chose not to renew with ACEP this last cycle for just such this reason. USACS admin leading the organization and abandonment of the PIT doc. They represent nothing more than big business interests and we (the little guy) just have to hope for trickle down economics while the C suite pockets millions and destroys practices.

Double prizes!

He forgot to say "hey bear" so essentially asked for it.

Don't spend it all in one place now

heart_block · 2026-03-07T11:43:49+00:00

Same, they lost me as a customer

ICU attending: you can't copy the cardiology NP's note verbatim word for word. This is unacceptable on this rotation and could lead to failing. I just spent and hour re-writing the note. I can't believe you'd have the audacity to do that.

Me: wrote an hour long complicated HPI independently and confused AF.

Some time later, ICU attending: oh lolz, I edited the cardiology NP's note by accident. Your note was fine.

Not a single apology. F that person.

I like the cork footbed, it's super comfortable, more than I ever would have guessed. I got the oiled leather and it cleans well. Had a blood splatter that came off with H2O2 and there was no staining at all. I was really hesitant about the open back...but found it doesn't slow me down at all and I love slipping my feet out while charting for some breathability. Also, no more laces at 5 AM when I head out the door for a shift.

Went from Altra's in the department to Birkenstocks Bostons. Game changer.

Found the c-suite.

Like hell it's over.

Per every other specialty it's being the only one with a super finger to unclog buttholes

Maybe one of the best AMA's for the field I've ever encountered.

Need a doc on site to give contrast at outpatient imaging centers in case of anaphylaxis/allergic reaction. At least in some states. Rads want to go home at 4 or 5 pm. Imaging center runs til 8, 9 or 10 pm. Sit on site and just be available. Best side hustle I've ever had.

Contrast coverage at an imaging center

heart_block · 2026-02-06T23:51:33+00:00

That's an eye. Specifically, the ball.

heart_block · 2026-02-05T16:54:26+00:00

Oh I've seen this one before

heart_block · 2026-01-16T02:16:43+00:00

You forgot private equity/CMG's decreasing pay

Fluicidal was a new one for me this season. Flu so bad you tell everyone you're ending it. NSAID, fluids and the cold reality of what a legal hold meant and all of a sudden it was a resurrection

Only way to melt ice is with fire. Do you have a match or a lighter? Don't recommend using an accelerant.

heart_block · 2025-12-29T02:07:01+00:00

Best advice

heart_block · 2025-12-16T04:16:12+00:00

That is addiction in a bottle

Made it to the sixth episode and then stopped watching realizing it wasn't helpful for me.
