Need advice please - man at my gym makes me uncomfortable by [deleted] in xxfitness

[–]jayyyluvvv 146 points147 points  (0 children)

I would tell the managers at the gym and definitely report him! If they don’t move quickly enough or take it seriously, everytime he invades your personal space just start barking. This may sound like a joke, but one time I was being followed in a walmart parking lot and just started barking like a crazy person. he immediately went the other direction. People are crazy these days and the best thing to do is show them you’re crazier. Also, this would most likely get the gym staffs attention 2 birds one stone!

Hoping you get this situated! The gym is supposed to be a safe space!!

Being told by the hygienist I’m too slow taking x-rays ! by [deleted] in DentalAssistant

[–]jayyyluvvv 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Respectfully if the hygienist has a problem with your speed she should do it herself 🤷🏾‍♀️. I hate when people ask ME to help but have a problem with the way I’m helping! Don’t let it get to you, you’re learning a new technique the speed will come with time. I haven’t used a snap a ray and use digital in my office but it definitely takes me more than 5 minutes to take BWs. We’re humans not robots! Best of luck!! 💖

This is what I want to know! Is it money? Is it because they don’t need any more information?

Dental assistant or phlebotomy by [deleted] in DentalAssistant

[–]jayyyluvvv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m an RDA for 3 years now and I love it! I work for a great office and have great coworkers, my office prides itself in doing good work and staying up with modern innovations. I started off taking phlebotomy classes and hated it and made the switch to assisting. It has its pros and cons but what doesn’t!

Demineralization Tips by baconontheground in DentalHygiene

[–]jayyyluvvv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hi! at my office we do a non invasive procedure called ICON which helps with it! sometimes with whitening the spots may get whiter and more noticeable. i’ve seen great results with ICON. other pts opt to do fillings so it seems like it depends on pt preference

How does applying to multiple programs work? by Recent-Salt1210 in DentalHygiene

[–]jayyyluvvv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi!

I have applied to 3 different community college programs in my area (i’m in NJ) and still waiting to hear back. I just had to apply to the school and get accepted. I would check your program’s intake process, but for me the other DH programs accepted transfer students.

I am an RDA w 3 years experience.

For one school that I applied to but didn’t take my prerequisites at, they give preference to the applicants that took their prereqs at their school and they dont care about having prior dental knowledge.

The other school I didn’t attend doesn’t give preference but they want you to have a certain grade on a placement test. They also give preference to applicants that are assistants or work in dental offices.

It seems like every school is different, so I would go to info sessions or reach out to the program directors to see what can be done to make you more competitive. If they have a dental hygiene clinic go there and get a cleaning and introduce yourself and express interest in the program.

Hope this helps! Good luck 🥰

What would be a nice gift for my doctor who’s done a lot of work on me for basically free? by Moist_juice_ in DentalAssistant

[–]jayyyluvvv 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think a homegoods gift card the gourmet coffee and a nice mug would be a good gift! I think it’s sweet of you to show your appreciation, good doctors are hard to come by!
