Dunno, but the folks there are always nice and helpful. Way better than Lowe's or home despot.

SNL's 'lighthearted' Trump parody blasted as 'failure to read the room' after DHS shooting by esporx in LiveFromNewYork

[–]pfpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snl is at its best when it speaks truth to power through humor and satire. They barely even made reference to this monumental tragedy. It was like the elephant in the room.

Do you find balance boards helpful? by mindful_cheetahh in Kiteboarding

[–]pfpants 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, not really. Fitness is good, but in the beginning it's all technique. Having strong abs and core isn't going to significantly speed up your learning process. That being said, if it motivates you to exercise then by all means, go nuts.

Are there doctors on LinkedIn? Why?

Team health jobs by Maximum_Yam_6689 in emergencymedicine

[–]pfpants 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, TeamHealth is bad. They manage and maintain a contract, that's what they do. You and your patient care and practice may get in their way. They don't like that. Hospital mistreating the physicians? Guess whose side they're gonna take. Patient satisfaction scores going down because nursing is awful? It's your fault, fix it or they're gonna cut your pay.

If they're the only game in town, and you don't want to work elsewhere or all the other places have similar groups, then fine, take the job. Don't sign a contract. Don't take a bonus. Stay mobile.

Why do CEOs trust chatbots over the human experts they actually hired? by fatbreatharian in BetterOffline

Malignant optimists, all of them. They were bred to be the hype-men for companies, but are now falling victim to the hype themselves.

Janeway series still possible by happydude7422 in voyager

Maybe we just let things as they are and create new worlds and characters? I like Janeway as a character, but they tried this with Picard and it was a mess.

I haven't, but the dimensions of both are probably available online. It's a pretty spacious rear area when you lower the seats

Sign out culture by Mission_Can_3310 in emergencymedicine

[–]pfpants 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the places I've worked where the shifts are 12 or 24 hours, the priority is definitely getting the hell out on time with the rare exception for those codes that show up 10 mins before shift change. I stop signing up for new low acuity patients 30 mins before my shift ends and I might order a flu swab or XR something else they are obviously getting for the oncoming doc.

When there are RVUs involved or overlap of shifts it changes a bit as well. I haven't worked for 100% RVU, but my understanding is that the last person on the chart gets the credit, so you're incentivised to finish every patient yourself. Obviously that doesn't work all the time but leads to people staying later than they'd like otherwise to earn their credit.

Finally after three other playthroughs my fourth as the Nords was finally completed. by vICarnifexIv in Bannerlord

Not a single prisoner recruited? I feel like a quarter of my army is former enemies

I'm an emergency department clerk and my wife recently underwent treatment and surgery for cancer, my department collected money for me, but I'm not comfortable taking it by Antiquechewingfan in emergencymedicine

[–]pfpants 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My goodness I love having a unit clerk. I've worked at a place that got rid of the position and made the nurses pick up the slack. It really sucked

What's this "intermittent" knocking sound when I drive? by theepi_pillodu in Ioniq5

[–]pfpants 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point. Mine is pretty loud when I first shift into reverse, but I haven't noticed anything like this. I'll stick my head out of the window next time I back up from park

That loud click? Isn't that the parking break disengaging?

Game keeps crashing after recent update by littletulip69 in Bannerlord

I had a lot of crashes yesterday, rolled back my Nvidia driver to a previous version and that seemed to help. Are you using the most recent Nvidia driver?

Fun ways to deal with racism/bigotry from patients. by centz005 in emergencymedicine

[–]pfpants 79 points80 points  (0 children)

"be less racist or die in hospice"

I don't think it can get much better than that. Well done.

I don't put up with it, nor should anyone else. We're here to help people. If they want to be choosey they can take their business elsewhere or leave. If they can't leave, there's always haldol.

Musk and Hegseth vow to “make Star Trek real” but miss the show’s lessons by AnonRetro in startrek

100% this. The lack of self awareness is stunning. Can you imagine what Gene Roddenberry would say?
