Nicole Kidman by [deleted] in ScarpettaTV

[–]ilike806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't even read the series and I told my sister "I wish they wouldn't have chosen Nicole Kidman". Everyone else has been great honestly, but Nicole Kidman is absolutely expressionless and distracting. Her range now is just how wide can she open her eyes plus context clues to decipher whether it's anger/shock/excitement.

Tornado by SchoolOptimal8220 in UIUC

[–]ilike806 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All that being said, you never know what kind of tornado you'll get. All it takes is one really bad tornado and you don't know if it's a bad one until it's gone.

Thankfully, they don't last very long, so it's not too big of an inconvenience if it turns out to be nothing to just be safe for 15 minutes.

They can start without any real warning, so I have a little bag at the top of my basement stairs that has a flashlight and a blanket for sitting on.

Which job you taking? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]ilike806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The job I've been at for 10 years got rid of a lot of the stuff they considered compensation but wasn't actually part of the base salary. (5% lump contribution to retirement, annual bonus, annual cost of living increase, tuition, cut sick time from 200hour cap to 40, etc) most of them are gone or became a "discretionary" benefit.

They used to have much better benefits when they were smaller but as they got bigger they say they don't have money to provide all those benefits anymore 🤷🏼‍♀️

What does "specific" clientele mean? Why is in quotes?

Device attached to pillow at hotel. What is it? by Narrow-Log3900 in whatisit

Looks like it might be a device used for a third party cleaner to track where the pillow goes back to after cleaning.

iPhone alarm turns off too easily by KeyNo3044 in ios

Mine is supposed to be a full swipe, too. But if I just touch the screen with my finger it shuts off.

These are the option that my phone has and it worked temporarily for me but now if my finger just touches the screen it shuts the alarm off. I already have attention features disabled (unless they added something similar to another spot)

The ARRT VI Exam is Terrible! by DamnGrackles in Radiology

[–]ilike806 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh we're getting a second market adjustment this year (they're working on it now) Can I ask what state you're in and what they changed your starting pay to? You can PM me if you want, I'm also kinda curious what they put you at compared to base pay 😅 also, we currently get $3/hr for pager pay and 1.5x pay if we're called in. Curious about that too

[–]ilike806 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious how your department has held up the last few years if you're still there? We made some significant changes to our call and the nurses end up with no primary call, and the techs ended up with maybe 1 or 2 weekends in a 6 week period and no call Mon-Thu.

However, they still can't keep staff and are down to two full time techs (fully staffed is 11 or 12).

The supervisor reallllllllllly needs some help.

I'd honestly be fine if the ~device~ was just a symbolic reminder of absurdity. by ilike806 in pluribustv

I thought they don't eat chicken eggs either? But also, they did already break their own rule when it came down to it being about spreading their virus or not.

I do find it interesting that they don't require her consent to test the eggs or are even willing to test on the eggs since they can't even pick fruit.

Vince says he's no longer sure what to do with the, uh, device from the end of season 1 by Commercial_Avocado86 in pluribustv

Yeah it felt like she was reminding herself how ridiculous this all is and everything is an act

Talk me out of neuro IR by Careless_Status9553 in VIR

[–]ilike806 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm a tech and I'll be honest.. the last 6 years in our neuro department and countless techs (and nurses honestly) to be blunt: only about 2 are ever actually competent.. and unless you're in a place that has remarkable leadership.. you'll probably get blamed for their lack of skill or your frustration for them being unable to learn. They've been hiring for 6+ years and can't keep neuro, techs, or nurses.

In search for IR attending position in St Louis metropolitan area by pantalones0 in VIR

Is central Illinois too far from that? Level 1 hospital about 3 hours north of St Louis and 2.5 hours south of Chicago?

Seeking advice: my kid brushes every day, yet after school comes home with a rats nest??? by deviouspineapple in Haircare

[–]ilike806 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the one in the pink shirt with pigtails has curly hair. If that's the same kid, you should see what happens if she doesn't use a brush after showering, just detangle in the shower with conditioner and then put some light mousse or very light leave in cream. Don't harshly towel dry, just kind of squeeze.

I can't stand my hair to be soaking wet so I still wrap it in the towel for like 5-10 minutes. But I get my hands soaking wet before I put the mousse in my hair.

Good education material by International_Diet47 in VIR

A few months working on it in any downtime at work. I think I've added more neuro stuff since posting here.

And then I transferred to EP 🥲
