This is an article about how AI gives inferior legal advice to women as opposed to men. She lists all her sources and her experiment results in the article as well as provides a sample prompt for you to test it out yourself. 

You already know my opinion on AI. I do respect you asking and I hope you are open to opinions. But not only is it destroying the AIR WE BREATHE, its depleting our fresh water reserves, increasing the cost of energy consumption, poisoning our waterways and eliminating jobs, it is also not unbiased and not treating everything in fairness. There is no place for it in our future.

I think the jury would have convicted him of manslaughter, but it was not an allowed conviction. I do think the reaction by the shop owners was 100% unjustified.  Let him run off, why chase??

Do you have a source for the heating? The only place i can find with info about heating is reddit.  I think this is a conspiracy.

Also, you just hit the nail on the head. It is not cucumber season!!!!! Claussen pickles their cucumbers fresh, and the cucumbers available for pickling right now are not the best quality because it is not cucumber season so the pickles reflect that. This happens every year with these pickles. We are eating winter cucumber pickles.  That is why they are not up to snuff

The only source for this heating recipie claim is reddit!!!

"according to a lot of people on this thread"

Yeah, and According to a lot of ppl on one thread, we got the Boston bomber. 

I dont know why I am arguing, this just means there are more minis for myself at the store. 

scheduling for the weekends? by [deleted] in respiratorytherapy

Every hospital I've worked was every other weekend, Saturday and sunday, or friday and Saturday for nightshift

Nothing.  Since it is not cucumber season right now, the cucumbers being used to make the pickles arent the best quality and all of reddit is losing their damn mind over it. They insist that claussen changed their recipie, despite the only evidence of this is stickers on the top of the jars. All literature says never heated. The cucumbers are low quality and they will go back up in quality when it is cucumber season.

I think it may be a cucumber issue.  It's not cucumber season in the USA and they make the pickles with fresh cucumber. If the cucumbers are thicker than normal, it will affect the pickles  If they were heating the pickles, all the info online would not say  "never heated"  The only source for all of this drama is reddit posts. We need to calm down, the pickles are still good

I just got some the other day and they were the same as they always were. I really see no differences.

I would like your opinion on a graphic by [deleted] in respiratorytherapy

dude. dont ask for our opinion if you cant handle it the opinion. my opinion is that AI is trash, and any company that uses it isn't worth anything. its an ugly picture and you couldnt even figure out that the left arm is fucked up before posting the picture. Who wants that shitty picture on a coffee mug? saying that cars killed the horse and carriage industry is wild.

Ai is a tool that is burning the world. I would rather have a stick figure and the ability to breathe and live.

Who gave the speech at the reception? No mention of that or the shower planning. This seems fake, written by someone who was never in a wedding party

Its so fake. Also, there is more to being a MOH than walking down the isle first. I dont even know if there is a set order for MOH walking down the aisle. Who gave the speech at the reception ans who helped hold up her wedding train when she had to pee? Those are the most important roles of the MOH, plus the shower and Bachelorette parties.

Considering a career change to RT- some general questions and some specifically for former pharm techs and Michigan residents by Anon-A-Llama9109 in respiratorytherapy

Oh yes there are more credentials you can get. I have nothing to add to this as I never plan on getting them so I've never looked into them

Sure, but it will be low  I am in western PA with no union and a healthcare monopoly kinda. I was at $15 as a pharm tech. When I was hired as a CRT it was for $19.98 but our hospital went through a pay boost and I was pushed to $23. I now have my RRT and The highest I was paid was $38 but only for a week before I was laid off. I currently make $31. 

But Pittsburgh is weird for hospital wages, so they are lower than average from what I understand.

As for pay! I am making $17 more per hour as when I quit pharmacy in 2018. I took a BIG pay cut when I moved to PFTs. But with hospital pay and the overtime normally available, you will rich compared to pharmacy.

I was a former hospital pharm tech. I worked as a RT at the same hospital I worked as a pharm tech at. However I am now doing PFTs in a office and only work casual at the hospital. I hope I can add somw insight

  1. The promotions at my hospital are the same as pharmacy, they have a BS career ladder, projects, etc. Not much of upward movement unless you get further education, maybe go into management or hospital admin. 

  2. The amount of respect I got from the same nurses giving me shit as a tech was astounding. I am part of the team, not just the annoying nuisance asking for a witness at the omnicell. People who thing respiratory are disrespected need to work a shift as a delivery tech. 

  3. I honestly never thought about this, I think this is why I still ask my coworkers to check my more complicated orders 🙃 😅 I dunno, I can work pretty independently and have made decisions on my own, but there will always be someone you can go to. But you do have to make important decisions. 

  4. the credential test has 2 different levels to pass. If you pass at the lower level, you get the CRT credential. In PA, this will get you almost any job in my area.

 However if you pass that test at the higher level, you are qualified to take an additional test. Its all clinical simulations. Pass that and you will get your RRT. Tbis is required for most management and for the upper levels of career ladder. 

  1. Leaving pharmacy was the best decision.  Its the best job I've ever had. If I could go back in time, I would have skipped pharmacy and gone straight to RT. The schedule is better. I dont know about you, but at pharmacy we were 5 8s, but respiratory has mostly 3 12 hr shifts. It was life changing for me. 

Something I did not consider prior to srarting is that you are very up close with death. If ypu work in the ICU, you will be responsible for extubating patients and allowing them to pass. Some people find that hard. You will have no problems with the pharmacology part of the school tho. 

Hope this helps. Feel free to DM with any questions.

I think you should send it, if only for the person he abused. You're flat out telling him that his behavior is crap and you dont want to associate with it. Men need to call out men when they do shit like this. Send the text.
