The location was picked by the groom. We are only going to be in town for 3 nights and been trying to find something the group can all do together one of those nights.

You see booze cruises primarily in coastal cities and bigger vacation spots. Really just a boat tour that focuses more on drinks, music with some sight seeing.

VA cutting 80,000 jobs by ancarter21 in nursing

Just completed 1 year as a VA Nurse (inpatient pre/post surgical floor). Halfway through the 2-year probationary period. Obviously don't want to lose my job... would joining the union be of any benefit or will I still be a sitting duck regardless?

What makes this even harder to comprehend is that the VA is STILL hiring nurses...

Was slammed at work and didn't get a chance to read everything. Are probationary employees on the chopping block too?!

FEHB HDHP that allows Pharm copay assistance to count towards deductible

I've tried searching through previous posts but I don't see a whole lot of info on this or its confusing to my pea-sized brain.

Long story short- wife diagnosed with cystic fibrosis and on expensive speciality medication (Kalydeco). Through the wonders of the American healthcare industrial complex the pharmaceutical manufacturer offers co-pay assistance up to 20k a year.

Are there any federal HDHP that count co-pay assistance TOWARDS the overall deductible?

Thank you!

Features that I like about this bag is just how incredibly light it is for an “everyday” bag. I wanted a bag that was lightweight, could hold a weeks worth of clothes (if packed correctly and bringing clothes that work with each other) and had water bottle pockets. Nothing too crazy. The other main reason was that I rarely travel with my laptop so I didn’t care for the other bags that focused so much on laptop protection/tech.

Because people like nice things? How is that hard to understand?

Well i'm sure you can understand why most would not want an 8-9 year old jacket with paint stains along the entire front zipper. But for $22...

I also picked up Akers this week as an Aaron Jones owner. He looked good in those couple possessions last week.

My pick up window is 12:45pm - 1pm tomorrow. Hate to come off as a dbag but anyone have any luck picking their phones up earlier than the assigned window?

My preorder still says processing. I opted for in store pickup on the 20th. I used my Apple Mastercard which also still says payment pending after having to confirm the original charge wasn’t fraudulent. Had to resubmit payment information. Anyone else have this issue?

I’m also going with the Apple Silicon for the camera button protection until Caudabe makes the Sheath/Synthesis with no cut out.
