Oh. Yeah… Coworker issues can be universal no matter what industry lol. But yes! Continue to be there to listen to her and support her. Youre a great partner for asking the question! Therapy wouldn’t hurt but its a very personal decision.

Well, I would ask her first how she is feeling. Assess, dont assume. I manage ED staff and honestly they’re all okay unless there is a super super depressing case or a very difficult patient.

Otherwise, they’re fine and their work day is very normal for them. There’s even a few that thrive in it.

So unless her rant is about stress, maybe I wouldn’t worry. Lots of people in the hospital just like talking about their day or venting. If it is about stress or something more, there’s a lot of resources and interventions she can try/tap into: EAP, therapy, trying a different area in the hospital, etc.

I don’t subscribe to this. I am happily married to my husband but understand love is very dynamic and monogamy isn’t for everyone. There’s also polyamory, asexuals, etc.

On a more personal level, I don’t desire anyone else and neither does my husband but we have a very healthy relationship with no jealousy. We are both secure and discuss attractability of others we sometimes find in passing (I.e. we witnessed a guy full sprint laps around us while on vacation walking around botanical gardens. He was a beast). If someone good looking, charismatic, or intelligent, that is just our perception of them.

TIL for me

Seconded. Polytopia is free and was extremely addicting when I first began. Kept me busy whole flight to Japan because you can play it offline too.

Vietnamese. “Hoa” is only one I know.

I have a balance board at work, and if weather permitting take my dog on a 10 min jog every day… I hate jogging but 10 mins is less than 1% of your day (15 mins is 1% of your day)!

I also do daily stretches.

I have an app called Finch that keeps me accountable by gamifying habits.

There’s so many I can think of because there are just too many books that have such a great story or good characters.

I recently finished Some Desperate Glory and can imagine it as a TV series.

Admittedly, some of the works I have enjoyed I selfishly do not want another version of it: Project Hail Mary (movie coming out with Ryan Gosling), dungeon crawler carl they’re trying to make live action. I could go for animated but unsure about live action.

Apple has picked up a bunch of book based TV shows. I read but haven’t seen Pachinko.

Same here. I also like to use it to save time on things. My work has all my info and their policies anyways so i use it to make meeting minutes, make emails summarizing policies or announcements, finding mutual scheduling times, etc. I can do all these myself but its so much faster.

I only really use AI at work and keep my work off my personal devices.

Yes to AITA. You’ve made several posts like this, dont follow any suggestions presented, decline to change (does not matter if youre neurotypical or not), I think even took another position in nursing and still miserable. If you are this miserable, as hard as it may be, likely would be worth a career change.

Not me but my now husband at 27. I laid my head on his chest going to sleep and heard wheezing. I asked him if he always wheezed lol. He thought he was just out of shape and combined with really bad allergies. Respiratory conditions suck.

Reading the other thread you cross-posted from and being a nurse myself, I agree with the other comments and answers found in the original thread.

You don’t have to like the answer but people generally are asking not to be prying but to be social with you and involving you to be inclusive, whether or not you are neurotypical. That is nice of your peers and honestly, practicing these behaviors for your patients too would help with your job. You are encountering individuals at their lowest: when they are most vulnerable, in pain, in discomfort, stressed, anxious, alone, etc. Part of the patient healing process is support and connection with their healthcare team, which would include you. Patients may do the same thing, ask you questions similar to those of your peers to get to know you or form a connection.

For your peers, you can disclose you are not neurotypical to increase understanding and let them know you are having issues with socialization but there should be some efforts to work with your team as well as with your patients. Healthcare especially in an acute setting as your answers so far has implied is a super social job and if not being social is your thing, there are other positions in healthcare that are not as social in nursing: utilization review, MDS RN, transfer center nurse, picc line vs wound care nurse just for specific tasks, etc.

More Batman Beyond… And just DC in general. I have always found DC makes better animated series than Marvel.

I wish there was more Arcane. Its the most amazing animated show I have ever seen and honestly the money spent in production for music, animation, writing and everything was insane. It definitely showed.

My eggroll Asian cookies were the most obvious. They were like $6 or $7 a box (damn inflation). Now they are $16. Damn those tariffs

Hello there!

I am a manager and I have staff that have different medical conditions. If you are in need of any accommodations at your work, check with HR or your boss for any options of alternative work schedules, protected time off, etc. There should be a department within HR if you have enough medical justification to have granted intermittent days off, shortened work hours (all this is “alternative work schedules or accommodations”).

You should have options to ensure your health is a priority and that your time to care for that is protected!!

I think its like $10k for in or out of the US and items of value

TUL pens. Super durable as I click my pens from anxiety and I havent had one break on me. Write very smoothly too

Our friend had his phone opened on IG. A random picture of an Asian girl with literal “airbag” boobs popped up, rather naked. Those boobs were so artificially inflated though that it reminds me of an AI image.

We now clown him constantly

No cut off. AI may have some books out there but not all. There will always be authors out there like Martha Wells, Sanderson, john Scalzi and even new debut authors all the time trying to write. Agree with other poster, you’re only going to miss out by limiting yourself
