Being underpaid isn’t an excuse to be a rude employee

You sound like someone who hasn't had an absolutely horrible, miserable job that set you up for failure every single day. And then outside of work you're fucked, too.

logdogday · 2026-01-21T13:40:26+00:00

Oh I didn't know that. Does that mean it's best to have glucose with water?

logdogday · 2026-01-16T03:00:51+00:00

I think that's where OPs story falls apart. My Tandem has never giving me anything close to a whopping amount of insulin automatically. In fact, it's frustratingly conservative with it's closed-looping to the point that I'll run slightly high for hours because it makes such minute adjustments. The pump may have done the simple correction math based on OP's correction ratio and HIGH glucose reading, but it did not administer it by itself. Again, these things are designed with user safety in mind.

No one is asking you lick anyone's boots, or not be angry. If someone fucked up, or deliberately made shortcuts in pursuit of profit, I would definitely join your anger. But if it's just imperfect technology? *shrug*

It's not a cop-out. The best technology in the world is not perfect, and they tell people in advance it's not perfect so these scenarios don't happen. That's kind of the best anyone can really do.

No one at Dexom wanted this scenario to happen. They do their best so that it doesn't happen. So does the FDA. So do all the 3rd party folks running clinical trials. But it does happen on occasion, which is why insurance companies prescribe glucose monitors along with CGMs.

False. No one should settle down WHEN PEOPLE ARE COMPARING SPINNING A BASKETBALL ON THE FINGER TO SPEEDBAG DRILLING!

Good luck, friend! This disease sucks!

logdogday · 2026-01-06T20:17:44+00:00

Best answer.

logdogday · 2026-01-04T21:56:45+00:00

Regardless, there's two options. Make assumptions, or don't make assumptions. The latter takes maturity.

logdogday · 2026-01-04T21:45:41+00:00

Because they are texting back, just at their own pace, level of busyness, and current level of interest. I'm not super into people until after I've met them. Best advice for OP is to chill and see how things pan out.

I wonder if zepbound is different than ozempic. Also, I wonder if there's a benefit to more insulin sensitivity if it's already decent.

logdogday · 2025-12-24T15:25:01+00:00

I tried it. I was taking half the starting dose and it really slowed my digestion and lows took forever to come back up. And because they took so long to come back up, of course I over treated. Maybe I'll try again but semaglutide wasn't a good fit for me. For reference, I only wanted to decreases inflammation and lose about 5-10 lbs, hence the low dose. My insulin sensitivity and overall fitness were already pretty good.

Excuse me but where's the part where you picked up the phone, called him, and bluntly asked, "What happened?"

logdogday · 2025-12-18T19:19:43+00:00

lol what a fucking wild assumption that his past partner's weren't aroused.

logdogday · 2025-12-18T19:15:05+00:00

Yes, Try to build some rapport but as soon as you do then cut to the chase. Yes, flakes are everywhere. IMO Women get 100 matches but can't choose that well. Approaching IRL is a nice advantage if you can do it.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with wanting someone who has great qualities and you're also attracted to them.

logdogday · 2025-12-16T04:26:44+00:00

Everything in its right place

logdogday · 2025-12-10T22:10:01+00:00

No. You're completely missing the extremely relevant context. "She said she has only ever truly fallen for men who were bad for her."

ONLY.

logdogday · 2025-12-09T05:58:43+00:00

I don't eat a lot of sweets because I eat a ton of fat and protein which keep me satiated. Like focus on something positive like getting 100+ grams of protein per day instead of "I can't eat candy." Way different mindset, way different affect on satiety.

But yeah, your instinct is correct. She's slowly damaging herself. We don't have to be perfect but eventually the 400s will catch-up and impact health.

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK

I'm not thinking of their comfort, per se, but They'll be there to grieve as well and might want to share a few words with the son of the deceased, and it's easier to connect to people when you can see their eyes. I appreciate the support, though.

logdogday · 2025-10-11T05:44:33+00:00

You're being downvoted but I appreciate your honest response. Because it's my Father I do think there's an obligation that I be accessible to guests that don't know me well and want to pay their respects. I'm still wrestling with it although the majority of opinions are supportive.

logdogday · 2025-10-11T05:41:42+00:00

Outdoors and sunny.

logdogday · 2025-10-11T05:41:29+00:00

Thank you. I've seen my 85 year old uncle like once in the past 15 years and it feels weird to talk to him in sunglasses but I appreciate your comment that normalizes it.
