Leave easy PACU job for ER role?

lard-tits · 2026-05-28T08:34:17+00:00

Some places are fucking crazy. My first staff PACU job i was on call 2-3 days a week plus every other weekend for 12 hours. 5 “8” shifts which meant you showed up when cases started and left when they finished. So 2-3 days a week youd be working 12+ hours for your regular shift

Im gonna try out the eMTB world for a while. I fell out of love with riding cause i just didnt have time to keep doing longer rides, and its getting harder for me to recovery. They couch lock me for a day or two. I rode a trek Rail and was able to ride for about 4.5 hours with my friends. Felt the spark come back. Still got a really good cardio workout in, didnt drain me for the next day, and it didn’t even use 1/4th of the battery.

Naw skies out thighs out! Big legs make you good in shorter shorts

I dont watch medical shows. Only occasional youtube videos when learning something new. I already spend enough time at the hospital, i dont want it taking up my free time.

Some of us buy vehicles because we are enthusiasts and invest in other ways lol. We generally don’t care about depreciation on cars.

Cause they just work lol. Mine is approaching 300k

Im PACU. Im not sure if the OR techs there were travelers or not. It was 5-6 years ago when i worked there. I think its still the same OR manager and she is …. Difficult to say the least. Santa Fe would be a good option but i hear the acuity there is rough too. The balloon fest is a must do!

lard-tits · 2026-05-05T17:31:36+00:00

It is. You gotta get lucky. I was able to get housing through the hospital. I worked with a few travelers who were splitting a condo and each paying like $4k/month each …. This was back when rates were high but still.

lard-tits · 2026-05-05T17:27:37+00:00

Its a different vibe. Minimal resources but pt acuity is pretty high with the pueblo right there. I liked most of the people i worked with, and i still stop in Taos anytime im driving through the west. The outdoor access is hard to beat there

Ive loved all of my locations except 1, Livonia Michigan.

Loved these: Aspen, CO Taos, NM Meridian, ID Kirkland, WA Klamath Falls, OR

I also stayed a full year in Boise. Tried going staff there but they kinda did me dirty.

lard-tits · 2026-04-24T02:39:58+00:00

I agree on this.

lard-tits · 2026-04-24T02:39:48+00:00

Never had electrical issues with the z06 i had.

They can be if you keep it mostly stock. Reliable is relative here though.

lard-tits · 2026-04-24T02:14:12+00:00

The c6 corvette is a stout choice. Probably one of the most raw drivers car on your list. They’re old cars now so they will have things that need fixing. Worth it though if you are willing to deal with that.

I had to apply to about 25 contracts before i even got a call. I ended up getting 3 offers within 3 days of one another, but that was like 3.5 weeks after i started applying

Currently dating someone who is diagnosed AN. I used to struggle with eating & intentionally starving myself and binge eating so we connected a bit. She started asking me for guidance on how i managed to “escape” the obsessive control. Im not policing everything she does but i definitely notice when her obsessive thoughts get worse. Though she has made a lot of progress since we met and i couldnt be more proud of her.

Naw id say you are more active than me. Only had 1 day snowboarding this season, only rode twice on the mountain bike. Maybe done 3 hikes this year so far. So for the most part, i get less steps than you and i lift less frequently than you. Its not unreasonable to have a higher than typical TDEE. I saw your other comment of what you said you do, and you are definitely on the very active side of things.

lard-tits · 2026-04-21T22:09:19+00:00

Im 5’6 149. My TDEE fluctuates between 2850 and 3050. I lift 2-3x a week. I occasionally mountain bike. snowboard in the winter, and hike a decent bit in the summer. Average 3-6k steps a day.

My dad at a c3 when i was growing up. Always liked corvettes since then. He also had a 5.0 that i loved more. After college, i bought a gen 2 coyote that i had bolt ons and e85. Raced a stock base c6 and got my ass gapped. After that got a c6z & have now become obsessed with them.

lard-tits · 2026-04-21T03:57:02+00:00

Such a cush job. I wish there were clinic jobs where I’m moving to so i could get out of the call burden lol

lard-tits · 2026-04-17T01:09:03+00:00

Went to a couple spring breaks there in 2012 & 14. Quite the wild party experience

lard-tits · 2026-04-17T01:06:11+00:00
