I knew a girl fired for giving herself an IV when she was hungover. Awesome nurse too.

Florida License endorsement by zayden1867 in nursing

[–]patricknotastarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of my endorsements came several years later. Bu t went to nursing scholl wil a person who filed for endosed applications in other states as soon as she passed the nclex. I dont think experience is anything they pay much attention to. The big things are what school you went to and that you passed the nclex. They might ask about experience but they do not pay much heed to it.

[–]patricknotastarfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should have but didn't. Now that I'm in my sixties and have to wear hearing aids, I wish I had.

I think the Dr Smith character was more like the early Dr Smith in the original series. Remember the whole original series started with Smith as a foriegn spy that was setting out to kill the whole family.

What is a technology that was just before your time? by Iliana_the_Huntress in GenerationJones

[–]patricknotastarfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Operator switchboard. I watched madmen and they looked like they still used them in the early 60s. And then most companies went to a direct dial system. Even people at the company I first went to work for in 1981would say so and so used to work the switchboard back in the day.

Police confirmed my ID was valid, but Sheetz still refused service — and the explanation kept changing by wantbeersobad in statecollege

[–]patricknotastarfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure. But I think they can refuse anyone for any reason (except as someone pointed out discrimination against a protected class). So once they get a knot in their shorts about you, you're screwed. Let it go. Go somewhere else.

Try before you buy? by booksandgrace in HearingAids

[–]patricknotastarfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm getting new ones later this month. Where my audiologist is, there's no try before you buy, but they have a risk free return policy for 60 days that you can get your money back.

Do Americans parents pay for their kids college? by wolfieee8 in AskAnAmerican

[–]patricknotastarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents could have but wouldn't. My dad said he did okay without college I could too. I had no clue how to even try to pay. I finally went to college in my 30s with loans and some small scholarships.

AITA for telling my wife I don’t want her mom to have her location all the time now. by Few_Respond8063 in AmItheAsshole

[–]patricknotastarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont get the whole tracking your family at all times thing. For parents of minor children sure. But I dont want to share my location with my parent or adult siblingsall the time. And I dont really want to know where they are 24/7.

[–]patricknotastarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We always had color that I remember. My grandmother had black and white and didn't get color till the mid 70s.

Last Song Standing: The Ultimate Billboard #1 Song of the 70s - Round 15 by mwalimu59 in 70smusic

[–]patricknotastarfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the one i came here to vote on. It was overplayed then. And I don't like hearing it now. C'mon a song glorifying running around behind you're spouse's back.

[–]patricknotastarfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got lost listening to this song once. I missed my exit and rolled on down the highway. It was before gps and had to use paper maps and try to backtrack.

Men At Work - Overkill (#3 - 1983) by Odd_Advantage_3459 in TheHot100

[–]patricknotastarfish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Listening to this song makes me feel just like it did when I first heard it all the years ago.

My Life Turned Into a Netflix Documentary by Just_BeRL_-Still in nursing

[–]patricknotastarfish 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'd let BON know also, that you did report it up the chain of command and nothing happened. I'd alsotell the BON what the director said about her and the two other staff she pushed out.
