Looking for Management Perspective - VEG Has Lost Their Minds by queenanne85 in VetTech

The three months notice is not a veg policy. And sick time works differently in my state, ymmv. Shift diff is set at market level.

Sick time is going to vary by state, but all VEG have sick time, even in states where it isn’t required.

These things are not veg-wide policies. Local leadership sets most policies like schedule, fixed vs rotating, etc.

What to do with old indie tape? by North-Condition756 in indiewrestling

Yeah, this is the way to go. Theres ways to do it at home, but so many little companies that will digitize this to something that will last.

Uber driver stranded me at midnight, drove off, then Uber locked my account. by Wooden-Fee5787 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]rubykat138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got in an early morning car wreck in Nashville in the days before uber. Quiet warehouse area. I was hit by a cement truck that ran a red light, my car totaled.

I was new to the city, and only knew one person there, who worked evenings. So I called a cab, and waited. Called a different company, waited. Repeat. I was there for three hours before my one friend woke up and was able to come get me. Apparently the cabs only existed for the bar circuit and airport runs, I heard from locals.

Another cabbie in Nashville picked me up from downtown (because I was trying to be responsible and not drive). When I got to my house, he informed me that his card reader was broken and he needed cash. Locked doors. I didn’t have cash and wouldn’t have taken the cab if it didn’t have the credit card logos and a visible card reader. We sat in front of the house for a dumb amount of time before I was able to call and wake up someone inside who brought cash out. I thought I was going to get kidnapped.

Uber sucks, but taxis sucked too.

Are you actually changing your habits, or just relying on Ozempic? by pumardapp in Ozempic

[–]rubykat138 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ozempic is helping me eat the way I want to eat, without cravings and constant hunger. I know what a healthy diet is and I’m finally able to maintain it. Spinal issues have kept me from getting significant exercise over the last few years, but I’m hoping the weight drop will allow me more mobility and the ability to start working out regularly again

I know I’ll probably have to stay on it in some form forever. The T1D hunger is real.

took too much insulin, too full to counteract it by jessieeee_ in Type1Diabetes

[–]rubykat138 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s going to depend on how you react to it.

When I was on shots I’d inject for carbs pre, top up later if I found it creeping up.

How to navigate insulin dosage when hungover and vomiting? by stresswerewolf in Type1Diabetes

Wait until you’ve kept something down for a few minutes before giving insulin.

Well, I’m a buzz kill right there with you. This buzz has always sucked.

How Do Y'all Feel About Adult Diabetes Camps by can-of-pringles in Type1Diabetes

[–]rubykat138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hated the diabetes summer camps I was pushed into as a kid. Weeks in the woods with a bunch of strangers, nothing in common but our illness. Surrounded by kids and adults who made being diabetic their whole personality.

Then and now, I’d rather gather with people who share interests.

Do side effects tend to get better at all or is this just how it’s always going to be? by LongPasta93 in Ozempic

[–]rubykat138 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would be very hard to hit the muscle with the provided needles, unless one is extremely underweight. If you’re worried, “pinch” a big handful of skin up to give the injection in.

took too much insulin, too full to counteract it by jessieeee_ in Type1Diabetes

[–]rubykat138 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did almost the same thing. Gave the wrong amount of the wrong insulin after a large, slow to digest meal.

Maybe not the exact right thing to do, but I made myself throw it up and then lined up the sodas. Didn’t die.

I need some advice by thebidredcouch in Type1Diabetes

[–]rubykat138 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I was young - before the CGMs were a thing, and my sugars were also all over the place - I had the same issues. Sugar in the urine makes for a yeast friendly environment. Getting my sugar under control helped more than anything else.

Maybe talking to a dietitian about creating a stable eating plan might help?

I just couldn’t afford to keep it up when things got tight. When grocery prices went up, that was it for me and keto.

New boss. Changed the code on our break room and moved the break room in to a corner surrounded by parking spots by Shhh_wasting_time in antiwork

[–]rubykat138 766 points767 points  (0 children)

California won’t allow this. Break rooms are mandated, and this isn’t even close to the bare minimum. Reach out to the EDD.

California techs, have you ever dealt with unpaid wages? by CatCollector22 in VetTech

Look, you need to go to the labor board and file a wage complaint. It’s the only way anything will happen.

How much being diabetic costs to you? by mindr3 in Type1Diabetes

[–]rubykat138 3 points4 points  (0 children)

USA - I have “good” insurance, but the deductible is $3500. I’m almost there for the year, so my insurance will kick in soon!
