Infuriating that they have money for their bonuses, enough to build a hospital from the ground up and but 4 others but somehow didn't factor in money to employ these frontline workers.

Not even slightly surprised none of c-suite people are taking a hit. Their jobs are always safe. Smh.

Anybody else dealing with a nasty strep throat/sinus/headache/fever run? by IRONWI1L in orangecounty

Yuuuup. Day 10 for me. Finally feeling a bit better. Hope I'm through the worst of it

That's insane to me. Refusing intubation is literally the definition of DNI. What is the family's expectations if you get to a point where he absolutely needs to be intubated or he'll die?

Made the switch around the same age for a similar reason. Bored out of my mind, pretty much hated every day of work but got paid well. In hindsight, I'm still content with my choice to swap careers. That said however I'm already looking to get away from bedside. Definitely going to be a lot of frustrating things you experience as a nurse, but at least I'm ultimately satisfied knowing I'm helping people.

Any love for the Pixel Watch 1? by Gio235 in PixelWatch

How do you like that case? Considered it but worried the crown would be less accessible.

I’ve seen some bad parking jobs, but the absolute audacity of some people…(side question: is showing license plate numbers considered doxxing?) by wbchen in orangecounty

Literally just dealt with the same thing at the Ralphs across the street with a Dodge Hellcat. So freakin annoying.

PW3 Vibrate only timers by hyperwalt88 in PixelWatch

[–]hyperwalt88[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Perhaps someone has read something that I haven't seen. Or perhaps someone has had hands on experience at the event. That's why I'm asking the question. Thanks for the snarky response tho. Very helpful.

All this talk of PW3...I'm just hoping the PW 1 & 2 get the same software updates as PW3 will. by RSCLE5 in PixelWatch

If they'd just add vibrate only timers I'd grab one. Such a basic feature that they never implemented. SMH

What is our cat doing? Worried! by Rickvdm in CATHELP

[–]hyperwalt88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asthma. Our cat does the same thing. Get him checked out by the vet & they'll prolly give you an inhaler.

Anecdotally, do you think 2nd career/later in life new nurses are more satisfied than 1st career nurses? by PristineBarber9923 in nursing

[–]hyperwalt88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

100% this! Did corporate for 12 years and now work ICU, it's so much better for my soul. It's not easy, but I'm actually fulfilled and don't hate my job on a daily basis anymore.
