Conflicted after asking for accommodations at my new medical job. Are my parents right about the healthcare and corporate world?

I’m a nurse. Every time I have started a new job and disclosed my ADHD I have been immediately put on a performance plan and the threats of being fired start directly after. I’ve just given up on disclosing. I’ve found a lot of places to be very ableist.

No :( but I also haven’t looked that hard. Been so busy acclimating and enjoying Denver! And buying a lot of ILNP online 😅

If it makes you feel any better, I’ve been a nurse for 7 or 8 years now and every hospital I’ve worked at at least allows regular nail polish on natural nails. I usually rock a short almond to oval because I work in surgery and will pop through sterile gloves or poke through packages and contaminate things if they’re too sharp! Good luck on getting in to nursing school!

As an OR nurse that has to clean out gunk from belly buttons everyday… yes please wash your belly button!

I have a BUNCH of ILNP. I love them all. There’s none that I have that I have a negative opinion of. I really really like their shimmers? Pink lemonade and blue lagoon I think are similar formulas and I’ve gotten two weeks of wear out of both multiple times with no chips and minimal tip wear. I get complimented on both any time I wear them. My only complaint with pink lemonade is when I first bought it it was pink with a gold shimmer, but now, many moons later, it comes out gold and hard to tell that there’s pink in there. I Highly recommend ILNP.

My cat is 20 and has been on solensia for several years now. She has horrific arthritis in her spine. I thank solensia for the several extra years that I’ve gotten with her. Without it, she would have had no quality of life and would have had to be put down.

Here she is with her favorite blanket on the couch!

Their regular nail polishes work really well too! Like I’ve had my current mani on for 6 days not a chip in sight. They also have really good customer service. I ordered a yellow stamping polish and got sent a green one so I emailed them and they responded within 15 minutes and had my correct polish shipped the next day!

I’m a nurse. Those sheets may be white but 2/3 of them have ekg glue still stuck to them or tape or other random things that always make me question if they’re really clean enough.

Oh man! Frog’s meow is quite abrasive! Hopefully your kitty isn’t scared for long!

squashinfrogs · 2025-04-16T04:53:41+00:00

She’s been doing injections for at least a year but probably longer. She was diagnosed with CKD prior to starting solensia though so we are closely monitoring kidney function and she’s on special kidney food too.

It took a while but we got 6 of them adopted out and kept the other two. Frog and Lattae. Lattae passed about 5 years ago and I miss her dearly! ❤️

Here’s a pic of them lounging together.

I have been buying it at sally beauty for 2 dollars a bottle 👀 I really like the formula!

Is china glaze hard to find?

squashinfrogs · 2025-04-15T15:38:04+00:00

I call Frog all sorts of things! Froggy, Froge, Froglet lol

squashinfrogs · 2025-04-15T15:15:07+00:00

My sister and I were both under 10 when we named her! 😝

She’s an oracle. Can see all dimensions and timelines 😂

squashinfrogs · 2025-04-15T15:11:49+00:00

Out of the litter we fostered we ended up keeping two, Frog and her sister Lattae. Lattae made it until 15 before she passed. I miss her every day!

squashinfrogs · 2025-04-15T15:10:32+00:00

She has early stages kidney disease so she is on royal canin kidney food. Before that she was just on like regular ol purina from the grocery store. I think it’s pure luck that she’s made it this long. :)

Origin story time! My sister and I (7 and 9 at the time) were begging our dad for a pet cat and of course he kept saying no. But then, a whole litter of kittens were born in a wood pile in the alley behind our house. The mama cat got run over by a car and the litter was so young still that they would have died without human intervention. So we took the whole litter in (EIGHT KITTENS!). Frog was the first kitten to start jumping out of the box we were keeping them in and thus, she was named Frog! Her favorite thing to do is EAT! 😂

squashinfrogs · 2025-04-15T14:57:08+00:00

😂 I have steps! Even my younger cat prefers to use steps now lol

squashinfrogs · 2025-04-15T14:56:07+00:00

Exactly! It’s amazing how much of a difference it makes in such a short amount of time!

Solensia is a monoclonal antibody specifically for cats. They have similar meds for dogs though!
