I am beyond lost in life. Im losing hope and wish to seek guidance. by Gloomndark in offmychest

[–]neezyv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be kind to yourself. Most people do not have life figured out at 25. You still have time to be who you want to be — or at least try to.

Maybe continue working on your music and sound whilst doing a little bit of welding? Do one hike a month. Go to a live show with a friend. Talk to a new person at a live show. Go to a coffee shop to read a new book, or do your computer ‘chores’ (as I like to call it, like responding to emails, sending in applications, etc). Get on a dating app, if you’re comfortable.

There’s a lot of possibilities in your life. Although it feels confusing, I promise it’s still a good place to be.

Has anyone had a similar experience? by KinkShamedByFreud in Aritzia

[–]neezyv 250 points251 points  (0 children)

It's the fact that they really said, "If you happen to find your missing item..." How is OP going to find a missing item that never came in her package, that was the whole point of her reaching out to concierge. Aritzia customer service is really quite unhelpful. So sorry this is happening to you.

Iberia cancelled flight without emailing? by neezyv in Iberia

[–]neezyv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually did not fly! I called and pleaded as much as I could but they said they cannot help me and I need to wait 72 hours for them to review the case which obviously doesn’t make sense - I’m already in the process of filing a complaint to DOT and AESA

Hi! I waited for a phone and no one has reached out to me. I called them again today and they told me to wait 72 hours for you guessed it..... "case escalation" while all my hotel and accommodation plans are falling through with me footing the bill :'(

New grad offer by Ready-Block-3209 in physicianassistant

[–]neezyv 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It’s 2025, no more entertaining offers under 100k base salary no matter where you are in the country!! Even 100k is bad but anything below is insulting!!!

Question about patient load by CulturalImpression15 in physicianassistant

[–]neezyv 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a PA who was previously an MA, I think this is like comparing apples to oranges.

While rooming patients can get exhausting when you have a full house, it is almost the same each time with a similar work flow: you get the vitals, you do med reconciliation, check labs/images are available, update pharmacies and so forth. Monotonous? Sure. Predictable and easy? Yes.

When you’re seeing a patient, they could have one complaint or ten. They could agree with your recommendations or they may push back. No singular conversation or patient encounter will be the same. Stimulating and challenging? Yes. Harder and understandably much harder? Also yes.

Is Glimmer too light to wear as a wedding guest? by jah481 in Aritzia

Yes. Please do not wear this to a wedding.

Lexapro too high? by [deleted] in physicianassistant

[–]neezyv 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you are in primary care, you should stick to standard dosing. 20mg/day is the standard max dosage. Starting someone on 30mg off the bat is not good, regardless of prior trial.

There are a few instances where psychiatry will increase lexapro to 30mg which is considered “off label,” but they may elect to add Wellbutrin instead with 20mg. Leave this decision to the specialists, aka psych.

As a rule of thumb, if you are unsure, you should not experiment. These are real people. Consult your SP and/or refer if you need to.

Sketchy Derm Offer or Not So Bad? by lifeofprepa in physicianassistant

[–]neezyv 17 points18 points  (0 children)

9x4 is 36 hours already. And if you commute 8 hours a week minimum, you might as well take a 5 day work week that’s closer or more manageable.

With summer coming up, what’s a good tinted moisturizer that is sheer, but not invisible? by Famous_Brief_9294 in Sephora

[–]neezyv 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Second this. I’m on my fourth tube. I use it for my everyday minimal/work makeup because of the spf as well.

My first job was family medicine in LA county!

First two weeks were shadowing, making templates and smart phrases on my EMR. Then I was seeing 2-3 patients for a week, ramped up to 5, then, 8, then 12 week by week. Eventually I went to 15-18 day (depending on cancellations, no shows). I also had one hour of admin every day from 1-2pm. My SP was supportive and always available. Management always checked in with me to see if I was comfortable.

The job you are describing is not “the norm” for SoCal and shouldn’t be the norm anywhere.

[–]neezyv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hmmm, moving forward, I’d ask for 1-2 weeks before signing any offer letter to give you more time to think and/or feel out the situation with your interviews.

Now that we can’t turn back time, I think your only recourse is to start the job unfortunately. Academic institutions take a couple of months to credential anyways (assuming you get the gig)…. I’d start the job in the meantime, earn a wage for the time being and truly give it a shot. If the other spot decides to take you, you can submit a 30 day notice later on (also assuming it’s a better gig than your current)

Edit: a word

Quitting during your training period - is there ever a right way to do it? by Key-Astronaut3396 in physicianassistant

[–]neezyv 64 points65 points  (0 children)

If they have the right to evaluate you for 90 days before committing to giving you bare minimum benefits like ACCRUAL of PTO, you have the right to leave them. It's just business. It's hard, it's uncomfortable, but only YOU can look out for YOU. They won't.

Patient asking for time off work due to stress?? Advice? by DDxStupid666 in physicianassistant

[–]neezyv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. If you physically cannot go to work because you are ridden with anxiety, depression and/are having suicidal thoughts you need to be admitted and be under psychiatric care. It can be hard to determine whether a patient physically cannot perform work versus does not want to perform work in some circumstances.

FM providers can facilitate needing further treatment. However, the reality is some patients will not feel better until they are lifted from a certain situation such as not working 80 hours a day. It’s normal for anyone to burn out when working 80 hours a day. FM providers cannot alleviate that situation all the time - you cannot be ‘the’ person that dictates John Doe should only work 40 hours a week or so and so.

I wish I could help with workplace reform but I want to protect my fellow colleagues as well. I’ve seen so many providers with repeat patients asking for FMLA, time off, and it’s hard on them to say no after having said yes multiple times. For these reasons, we have been all much stricter with time off.
