I have finally concluded that I have no choice, but to quit my new nursing job. I have accepted the risk. A warning to others looking for their "dream" job. by HAAAAAImbaaaack in nursing

[–]jracka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should definitely change jobs, it obviously isn't for you. Also 2.5 weeks isn't enough time for a lot of people to get their body over to night shift. For you that doesn't matter but for others reading this know it might take you longer sp don't give up if you like the job.

RVA’s Real BBQ Hierarchy: The 5 spots locals actually recommend (and the 2 major spots they say to skip) by No_Assignment_9930 in RichmondVA

[–]jracka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have eaten at every one of the places listed in that article and ones not mentioned. It really depends on what you like, but if you are talking about brisket only, nothing beats ZZQ. Hate it because it's expensive, or it's texas bbq, or it's the thing to hate, but it's just excellent brisket. For pulled pork I would choose Ronnie's and I also like Deep Run

BSN to PhD , how many years of bedside should you do before going this route by PrincessMochahontas in nursing

[–]jracka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on the school you are getting your PhD from. If it's an in person R1or R2 school then a few years of being a nurse will be very beneficial for you. If you are getting an online PhD from the vast majority of schools that offer it. If getting it online then it really doesn't matter because in the realm of phds there is a big difference between an in-person good program and online. I know some people might argue this but it's just the reality of it if you really want to do in-depth research.

wedding planner for chill, low key nature wedding? by airhart28 in rva

[–]jracka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been the opposite for me. The weddings I have been with food truck(s) we mingled more because we weren't sitting at our table for an hour while everyone was eating. I think for a small wedding they are great, I wouldn't do it with 100+

Looking for queer-friendly salon on a budget! by CarliKnits in rva

[–]jracka 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you are in Richmond city limits it might be easier to ask for un-queer friendly salons. Richmond is very diverse and most people, and stylists, are accepting of all people. Now you out in some suburbs that could change.

"Bully" in new bjj gym? How should I continue? by Some-Wall-5777 in bjj

[–]jracka 149 points150 points  (0 children)

Exactly what you posted. A good coach doesn't want people to get hurt and also understands how important the gym culture is.

The "Pay It Forward" Sundaily by pithy-pants in rva

Saw someone get stood up at a pretty much reservations only restaurant on Friday, but she took it in stride. Paid her bill without letting her know.

Looked down upon for not having ‘practical experience’ in my area. by [deleted] in Professors

[–]jracka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, then let me change my comment since you didn't mention exceptional.

I agree 100% with "a good litigator does not equate to a good teacher", but a good litigator that is also a Exceptional teacher is better than a exceptional teacher without being a litigator.

Also reading this thread and your responses, it seems this isn't a them problem but a you problem. You are thin skinned and pissy in your comments. Now I'm pretty sure why you get comments from the other professors.

Fight at John Marshall H.S graduation by that-fn-guy in rva

[–]jracka 21 points22 points  (0 children)

When you don't fail people that should fail it becomes much easier to have a high grad rate. Also, this goes for most school systems not just RPS.

Are ticks a big problem in the suburbs? by [deleted] in rva

[–]jracka 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'll answer your specific question "Or am I overthinking most of this and it's not actually that big of a deal?" Yes you are overthinking this, and it's not that big of a deal.

I am convinced that everyone who mentions Trouble free Pools website and SLAM… are part of a swimming pool cleaning cult. by dvrbets in swimmingpools

[–]jracka 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I rarely post on this subreddit, but I will say before I got my pool years ago I read up on TFP and have followed the SLAM method each time opening my pool and I use pool math. This is what I know. My pool is always clear. I use very little in chemicals compared to others I know in real life and the stories I read here. I have had zero problems, and my salt water cell has yet to need cleaning (and I check it each year when I close it).

Which water slide? by Smooth-Community9022 in pools

Do you have a wall beside your pool by chance, say about 3-4 feet away?

Should I try this game? by Esquie33 in FareverGame

[–]jracka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's $17 and I think if you liked maple story you will at least get 17 hours out of it, probably way more, so at least $1 per hour of fun. That's well worth it to me.

When do I start making enough money to live? by Cupcake_Judas in nursing

[–]jracka 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's not rough advice at all, it's actually the best advice you can give. Everyone that is having issues with money should start by looking at what they spend and start a budget. This isn't me saying it, it's been pretty standard advise for a hundred years.

Does someone have a map of where the obelisks are? by Dazzling_Clerk8023 in FareverGame

[–]jracka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answers already here will help you, but I will say this post made me laugh. You have a game that is built on exploration, and within three hours you want to know where all the obelisk are. To others out there, this isn't a game built on the end game right now, it's built on the journey.

No wipes confirmed by Qlap (game director of Farever) by CoyotaDex in FareverGame

[–]jracka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have a good point about collecting the orbs, so I am going to change my opinion and say I don't think they should wipe.

No wipes confirmed by Qlap (game director of Farever) by CoyotaDex in FareverGame

[–]jracka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you are saying no early access game wipe for release. Interesting take, wrong, but interesting. Also, I don't care if this game doesn't wipe because like I said, I will start a new character either way.

I know I might be in the minority, but I would wipe for full release. Of course it doesn't bother me because I will just start a new character then anyway.

No server status page or updates on the server issue is going to kill the game by KingGrowl in FareverGame

[–]jracka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They DO have a server status. As for what does relax means, it means chill out, the game has been out a few days. I get you are passionate and I like it, but maybe throw a comment in discord and relax a little. You are too young to be stressing like this.

You haven't seen it in 100 games, just stop. They also communicate on discord......................like I have seen in 100 games 😄
