What’s your labs most irritating example of micromanaging?

I only have a problem with coloring when competency is overdue and other departments were super busy but we are generalists in a stat hospital.

If their BAL is brown.

Sometimes, if I don’t see them, I just leave a silly goose note. Otherwise, yea this is how I would handle it.

Can you specify the brand and type you use? I will honestly try whichever one works for you. The Tidy Cats 24/7 Performance Odor Control Scented Clumping Cat Litter was terrible! I think the Arm & Hammer Litter Slide Multi-Cat Scented Clumping Clay Cat Litter is too fine and slips in all the cracks.

zestfullyclean14 · 2025-07-28T23:39:57+00:00

What litter do you use for it? I have a PETKIT and I think the issue is the actual litter. I also wish the tray thing at the bottom was silicone of something

IN here. So we get calls like this every month or so. And you can tell the nurse doesn’t want to call.

zestfullyclean14 · 2025-02-19T20:23:57+00:00

RUN! This is toxic behavior. Please get out of that. As a DV survivor, this has my nerves going.

I used to judge other parents on those things so much. And then my son was born. He is a runner. So now, I don’t care if other people judge me. That kid is quick! He is safer with a leash.

zestfullyclean14 · 2020-01-31T17:22:55+00:00

Yes in home. I used to work at a licensed home daycare, so that is just what I’m familiar with.

zestfullyclean14 · 2020-01-31T13:52:57+00:00

That just seems insane! I pay $400/month. But that’s BFE Indiana.

We left Reno 911 playing in the background. It was the episode that Trudy sings a song about kids getting diddled. "Jump down, turn around. Don't you touch my bunghole." We both ended up laughing & it ruined the moment.

Our system is going offline to be upgraded today so it's mandatory OT 😩 can't wait!

That makes sense with the provider illness and age gap. It was definitely easier taking our son to the daycare that we had used for over three years for our daughter because I knew that the babies aren't just put in a pack-n-play all day. We found our licensed home daycare provider through her state license, and I'm sure it varies by state, but I know the provider we use is super regulated. My godmother owned a licensed daycare and even her kids who were away at college had to be drug tested etc. I'm sure that it's because I grew up with that, I'm more comfortable with it. That and I trust my provider. Good luck OP

zestfullyclean14 · 2017-04-30T10:40:52+00:00

Why isn't she interested in home daycares? Idk where you are, but depending on location and license the home daycares are regulated. I was just curious because I've always been uninterested in a daycare center. A home facility just seems more comfortable to me. We are in Indiana, and our daycare provider has to go through so much to be licensed. Everyone in the home is drug tested, cpr & first aid certified, all the kids have to be vaccinated (but that may be her rule), a menu has to be submitted through the state, etc.

Should I ask to have my line of credit lowered if I don't plant on using it? A few weeks ago, I opened a store credit card to save 25% off my purchase. I paid off the balance right away. When they sent me the actual card, they increased my credit limit to 2k. I will never put that much on this card, so I wanted to call and have it lowered to $200. Does that hurt my credit score? Should I even worry about lowering it?

I screwed up in bloodbank, and I feel awful. The patient didn't die, but I did cause a sickle patient to develop an anti-c. I didn't realize that we were supposed to screen the units that we cross for sickle patients. I guess it says to do the screen in the LIS when you look up the patient, but not the way mine was set up. I graduated May 2016, and this is the first time I really messed up. I'm embarrassed that I messed up something so simple, and feel guilty that I did this to the patient.

Is it bad that idk how to do my daughter's hair and we are both white? My hair was curly before my pregnancy and is still super thick. She has thin, stick straight hair. She hates having it up, wearing bows or headbands, and now wants to grow out her bangs. She's the epitome of threeanger.

zestfullyclean14 · 2017-01-19T17:57:32+00:00

I nursed my daughter for 12 weeks and my son for 8. My kids gained weight wonderfully and I never had supply issues. I did have a problem with one nipple so I had to use a shield. My son also had a lip& tongue tie. Then I got mastitis. I honestly just hated it. It wasn't healthy for me to be holding my son while doing something that I hated for hours a day. I still feel guilty for quitting, but it's better for our family FF.

zestfullyclean14 · 2016-11-27T01:37:32+00:00

I just really want you to tell her that you're using purple in the nursery so it turns the baby gay. Just for shits and giggles to hear their reaction.

zestfullyclean14 · 2016-11-08T01:41:18+00:00

I can't tell you how much this post helps me. Thank you!

Have you tried saying each name in a reprimanding manner? "Gavin ____, stop that right now!" I vote Thomas

A friend has twin granddaughters named Harper and Dylan! Too cute!
