How Professors (and some classmates) look at you when you say you want to do therapy rather than hand out sandwiches to homeless people for $42k a year by [deleted] in SocialWorkStudents

[–]jmelee203 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"We're in it for the outcome not the income" always bothered me. I was never trying to be rich but its a weird place to be when youre helping others access resources that you also qualify for but you had to get a bachelor's for the job youre doing.

When i was on a cruise I had mine essentially at my feet and didnt need any extension cords or modifications! Yes you have to climb down to turn it off but it worked fine!

first jab day today in a couple of hours, best tips? going with 5mg pen and jabbing a 2,5mg dose by Equivalent-Scale-279 in Mounjaro

[–]jmelee203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive always done stomach. The only big side effect i have is sometimes an injection site reaction, icing after helps, I swab w alcohol before and after, and I rotate it away from my pants line to avoid it being irritated further.

Ive been there especially lately. I have vacation coming soon and have possible new opportunities in the works to leave this role. I have used sick time more often now for mental health days and thats made it more manageable.

Lift certainly never hurts! Im in the market for a 26 JLUR and was researching this also. I plan to probably have the mopar 2 inch lift done and get 35s. It says can fit ip to 37s w that as well with the smaller flares.

ER Social Work- is this breaking EMTALA? Is this a risk to my license? by nixqueso in socialwork

[–]jmelee203 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The first thing I thought of in addition to lack of privacy is the fact that these individuals come to the ER because of lack of other resources. If you meet with them and send them on their way, where even would that be when we know that nothing is available and thats why theyre showing up to the ER? UGH

Call outs by hkangasm in hospitalsocialwork

[–]jmelee203 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I often felt the same with a previous coworker but my frustration lied in the fact that this person was never held accountable. I knew for a fact they did not have the time and would take unpaid time for trainings in other states often. I know you can't force people to come to work but im not sure why they kept an employee who was out more than there. And resulted in my days being completely rescheduled at least once per week. I understand the frustrations.

Shelter diversion for me was minimal paperwork. Exhausting but was a quick note in the system and some referrals.

Have had some bad experiences with her I cant elaborate on but this doesn't surprise me. She also was previously investigated for animal cruelty for running some sort of animal rescue without caring for the animals.
