Random Fail: First World Problems

OK dude. But that's what my training has told me, and I've taken it 4 times now. And I'll take the CPR trainer's word over yours.

Oh I can play this game too

OK dude. But that's what my training has told me, and I've taken it 6 times now. And I'll take the CPR trainer's word over yours

Edit: Oh no puppy headbutted a closing door and was crying for a few minutes. Much heartbreak

The insurance agency I worked for three years ago never cancelled two of my previous appointments. Been waiting almost three weeks to get them cancelled. All I can do is take payments and answer the phone, but not talk about product or actually sell anything until those are cancelled. I'm so bored right now.

Go for it. You are the one that jumped on my statement saying it was extreme.

[dasva]

I did because the way you phrased is idiotic and something that neither your link nor any instructor I've had have used outside of maybe being hyperbolic. I'll just assume you actually were being hyperbolic but can't admit it

[Yuri-G]

friend of mine is notoriously flaky, but last night went the extra mile of totally blowing me off and also not responding to my text this AM asking if he's ok


I'm not too worried because while this is pretty bad even for him, it's not completely unexpected... but I am slightly concerned that this could be something serious and for once he's not just being a flake. his roommate hasn't seen him in over 24 hours either. probably just a lost phone, and even if it is something more serious there's nothing I can do about it. I guess we'll see, I'm sure I'll hear from him eventually




edit: oh good, he's ok. no idea what happened. I told him I'm not mad but for obvious/pragmatic reasons, won't be making plans with him anymore, but we can still hang out when it happens.

I remember taking my CPR class and our instructor said to give the person all the internal injuries as it's better then dying.

So you're saying Melena was lying, too, or...

I’ve been a paramedic for almost 20 years and if you don’t break ribs while doing CPR, then you aren’t doing it right.

If you Don't Break Ribs you Aren't Doing it Right...
At least that is what I was told when taking BLS and ACLS.

https://pistol-forum.com/archive/index.php/t-15266.html

I've had new paramedics who were told the "if you don't break ribs you aren't doing it right",

But clearly I must be lying I was told that.

Today has been a bit of a clusterfuck.
After I took a written test for a county job position, I had to find some clothes for a new part time job I'm working for while I seek out better employment.

Who knew finding a fucking white button down shirt would be so hard if you have boobs above a fucking a/b cup. I had to size up TWO SIZES IN MEN'S just to wear something that isn't splitting at my bra line.

Then had to find new shoes since they require non skid black shoes- ok no big deal SafeTStep usually are my go to. Didn't realize how expensive they've gotten since I last bought them so that was another $40 bucks.
I had issues at one store because the idiot cashier demanded I give her my card - I refused since it was a gift/point card from my old job. Basically voided my transaction then called a manager over and the manager is like wtf why would you ask for my card - what if I have to return something for example. Cashier was obviously not very experienced dealing with people and terrified of being "in trouble" and older than me. I ended up leaving and going somewhere else because it was clear this was going bad.

The only win was by going to 3 different stores in the mall I still spent far less than they wanted at one store.
I haven't eaten since 9am too lol.

Ribs don't have to break. They can break. They will break. They don't always break. If you're breaking ribs with every compression you are pushing to too great of a depth, not allowing enough recoil most likely, and are going to fatigue faster resulting in poorer quality cpr. They break. They don't always. Some patients they won't break, doesn't mean you aren't doing it right. Some patients that are old and frail a few break, but not all, doesn't mean shit.

What does mean shit is performing poor quality compressions which are not at a depth of at least 2inches and not allowing the chest to fully recoil and not at a rate of 100-120 per minute for at least two minutes.

Moana is on Netflix so gf and I watched it, now ive got the songs stuck in my head. always was a fan of the Polynesian music/cultural elements in Civ, now Disney built a squad of brain worms from the same source material AND used Dwayne Johnson as their delivery! fuck.

my favorite is We Know The Way, the song the ancestors sing, but they're all great.

[Zetanio]

There is no fail in that. Moana was amazing.

[BaneTheBrawler]

of course but the fail is that I cant stop. it's been 2 days now.

[Melena]

I didn't think it was possible, but Lyft's support for drivers may be just as bad if not worse then Uber's.

More termination woes and uncertainty. After researching and narrowing down the violations to two separate Ohio Revisions (1335.11 and 4113.15), I was all set to send a demand letter to begin the process to file for unpaid wages and benefits in small claims court in the neighborhood of $2200. Today, my evidence gathering kind of came to a head and I was able to get a lawyer to schedule a consultation with what I had to share; other's had previously declined and recommended small claims court.

Unpaid wages include vacation, uniform deposit, unpaid commissions, and what seemed to peak the lawyer's attention, an unapplied raise. I was given a substantial raise on 6/9 and told it would take effect the following week. I signed a document saying this. Conveniently, former employer is claiming no such document exists, but they did acknowledge that I was given a wage increase. The HR lady was pretty antagonistic over the phone, but she said she didn't understand my angle in all of these questions. I explained my angle was the pay raise wasn't applied to my last check. She appeared to be unaware and said she'd follow up with me after getting with management. Management claimed that I was terminated before the pay increase went in, which doesn't add up with the timeline. 6/9 review + pay increase - 6/12 accused of threatening an employee by pushing my rolling chair out from my desk - 6/16 terminated. I recorded the conversation (yay law requiring only one party of a conversation needing to give consent; me) so I have proof.

Demand letter is now on hold until I speak with the lawyer next week at a sit down. He seemed to be under the impression there's more here than just unpaid wages. I'm not really in this to get all I can or anything, I just want what I'm owed. But I'll see what he has to say before I do anything to write myself out of options.

[Melena]

Nah fuck that. They did you dirty, take em to the cleaners. In the end as far as references are concerned, they can only say you worked there.

I agree you shouldn't be shooting for a 1 trillion dollar suit, but fuck that company. They deserve to get roasted and the money is what's always most important. Hope things go good for you.

.

You're cranky say no more. But my mistake you are right apparently way too many people take that statement way too literally I just hadn't encountered many. All the more reason to state that the statement is supposed to be an exaggeration of how common injuries are but to not worry because it's better than dying.

I don't have the time or inclination to find a bunch of forums but counter point. Studies about successful CPR. Also goes into what makes breaks more or less likely.

Uggg this puppy is starting to bug me. Now it sleeps right under my chair which is adorable except cant move chair and it farts something awful in it's sleep

[Melena]

Be thankful it doesn't fart in self defense. Jager when we first got him would fart if we picked him up.
