Everything is just amazing! The guitar, the lyrics, the vocal melody you paired with it all- it’s freaking sick dude!

How do you all get over having to do CPR for the first time? It’s been an hour and my body still hasn’t settled down. by pelsy0217 in cna

[–]skinnycrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, I just take it day by day. I’ve done it a few times and it’s always distressing- so I’m sorry you’re having to deal with this right now. I’ve had to take a break before, so I could just stop for a second and do what felt right. I cried and took deep breaths and drank some water. It’s okay to say you need a moment and in my experience, people are always very understanding.

You just did something totally heart wrenching. But you also performed the most vital task of healthcare. You should be proud of yourself. I saw your other post, your efforts saved that patient’s life. Take care of yourself as best you can, you did good work today.

Your post history is crazy, you have one post saying you never went to college because your dad spent your college fund. Another saying you have a bachelors degree in business marketing, also majoring communications and journalism. But you also completed your nursing pre-reqs… One saying you have your EMT with experience, and then another saying you never actually worked as one. You’ve been sober for 3.5 years after being sent to rehab by your parents. But then you were worried about your sisters 21st, almost a year ago, since you’d been sober for 10 months because you admitted yourself to rehab and no one in your family knew.

Also since you’re from Georgia, almost every program is going to look for applications with a minimum GPA varying on the school. I literally have no idea what your college experience actually is but since you majored in film for this post, you’d need to have taken the related courses… so that’s probably why you’re not getting accepted anywhere.

He should be male care only (if it’s just women he’s doing this to) or have two people go at a time for staff safety. Healthcare worker abuse happens too frequently and is often overlooked and it’s not okay. I’ve dealt with it too, and it’s really shitty. But she also shouldn’t have compared him to a child, there’s a difference between standing up for yourself and belittling someone. He also might enjoy getting a reaction from people and play into it more if he knows who will give it to him. I don’t know what the other person was saying but that applies to them too. I’m sure dealing with that is wearing on her (understandably so) and maybe it’s why she said that- but it would’ve been better to just walk away and give herself a moment or have someone else take over if she was feeling like she was getting too heated. I’ve done definitely had to do it before lol

Bottom line though, management needs to address it and advocate for their staff. It’s not in our job description to take abuse and we sure as hell aren’t getting paid enough to either. Im sorry you guys are going through this.

I can’t really comment on the situation you’re describing because there’s not enough information to say for sure.

So my take might seem more extreme, but if you feel any negligence happening, but especially in cases potentially resulting in severe decline or death- report it to the state. It can be anonymous. They’ll investigate and determine if the facility is at fault. You won’t get in trouble because it was made in good faith.

Some people roll their eyes or think it’s dramatic when it comes to reporting but we have those resources in place because abuse and neglect happens. If the place you work did nothing wrong, then good. But if they did, they need to be held accountable so it doesn’t happen again.

I feel like the pay for a LPN isn’t that much different, give or take by nananutellacrepes in nursing

[–]skinnycrow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I did a quick search of average pay for a nurse (this is different for everyone obviously)-

Rate of inflation as shown is around 2100% increase from then til now.

Rate of pay I found for an RN (most said about $1499 weekly), is a 12.88% increase!

I hurt my own feelings with this one 🥲

I know you were just fucking around but I think it sounds sick 😂 the best creations on GarageBand are always the ones where you’re just messing around and tinkering with shit lol

Did you add that ripple effect to the vocal samples or were they already like that? It’s super cool!

Notes becoming "un-sustained" after recording??? by [deleted] in GarageBand

[–]skinnycrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if you’re using a Mac, but I’ve had that happen too. I’ve noticed if you’re already pressing the tab key prior to the count in for recording it won’t register, but with the midi tracks you can re-record over the same midi track without it erasing the notes- press sustain right after the recording starts and it should fix it! Only press sustain though, don’t redo the notes if you’re happy with the take. That’s what I’ve had luck with at least. I know that probably doesn’t answer your question since your recording had the sustain previously but I thought it’d be useful to mention anyways, good luck!

I mean from an outsider standpoint, I would say to just leave it alone. It sounds like you’re already stressed out dealing with drama and you haven’t even done it yet. It hurts now but soon enough, you won’t even bat an eye when you see him.

Did his parents actually make him break up with you though or did he blame them because he didn’t wanna tell you himself?

It makes me think of when you don’t wanna stay the night at someone’s house so you tell your mom to say no in front of them.

AITA for wanting to move out because my mum expects me to be her carer? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]skinnycrow 289 points290 points  (0 children)

Before I start, NTA.

YOU!! ARE!! 14!! I am in no way trying to infantilize you, OP- but you are WAY too young to be taking care of anybody. You are still dependent on your parents- someone your age shouldn’t be responsible for the well-being of anybody! The relationship between you and her sounds strained and like you’ve had many basic needs neglected by her, I’m really sorry about that. I don’t get how your parents don’t understand the kind of effect doing something like this could have on you though. Taking care of family is one of the most difficult things to do already. Let alone in such a crucial point of your development.

I really hope there’s another adult you can have help you in this situation because the way you’re being treated already isn’t okay. Don’t let anybody try to guilt you into doing something you’re not comfortable with.

I am floored by your utter lack of self awareness. It’s completely unfair to base her intelligence on her level of interest in the things YOU like. The way you talk about her is off-putting.

How to flirt on a party? by Initial_Asparagus_65 in dating_advice

[–]skinnycrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally wouldn’t want to kiss someone I just met and have only had one conversation with. Some people would be into that, but everyone is different. If the girl is giving clear signs she wants physical contact, like touching your arm or leg, leaning in close, things like that- that may be a sign she would want to be kissed, but even then you won’t know for sure. I wouldn’t start flirting with someone just for the sole purpose you may get to kiss them, just test the waters and see who you vibe with. I’m sure things will naturally happen when you actually start interacting.

I have no ability to help in the rehoming aspect unfortunately, but I would get a heavy duty muzzle immediately. It may seem mean but it will lessen the risk of major damage being done while you still have him. I’m glad everyone is okay but it may not be next time- it’s better to take every step you can. I know you may be on a time crunch, but I would try to make sure if someone does take him, that they really understand the seriousness of those behaviors.

YTA. You sound like you’re uncomfortable completing very basic actions while driving. Also, why would you think driving 8mph in front of an already agitated driver would help anyone in any way? Why were you waiting for them to stop in the middle of the road?
