| MrPeppers 09/02/17 4:56:47 AM #13 | USANumber1 posted... Can you answer a question about my baginer? Unless it's bleeding I don't wanna hear it. Steelix500 posted... Damn, aren't you making bank though? Or is that where the fixed salary screws you over? Like you get paid the same as everyone else even though you have an important position. Naw, as a resident you're the low man on the totem pole. It's a low 5 figure salary that requires you to put often 100+ hours per week in. You don't really make any money until you finish residency. --- |

That sucks man, just push through and know you'll have a bigger paycheck. Assuming you're paid based off hours. I'm on a very fixed salary lol. We make dick as residents for the hours we put in --- |

| Topic | Cops arrest nurse because she refused to draw blood from an unconscious patient |
| MrPeppers 09/01/17 2:34:47 PM #74 | So @Coffeebeanz it looks like blood was already drawn by the hospital and the charge nurse was stating that the officer, who was a licensed phlebotomist, was not allowed to draw himself since he had no probable cause & is not employed by the hospital, and it would be malpractice by the hospital and a HIPAA violation on her end. --- |

| MrPeppers 08/31/17 11:16:52 AM #66 | Antifar posted... I'd say our center of gravity is basically liberal, but the most vocal posters are either left of that or right of that. Probably this. For every Admiral or Mal_Fet you have RebelElite and averagejoel. I will say that it is much easier for me to express liberal ideas without having insults thrown my way by more people. Sometimes I hold my tongue if I have a right leaning opinion because it feels like more people would jump on me unnecessarily than if it were reversed. --- |

| Topic | Basic Economy on United |
| MrPeppers 08/29/17 9:23:30 PM #15 | IdiotMachine posted... Bro it's like $177 roundtrip: Yeah it ends up being like $225 after bags are checked, but that's United and their lowest tier class who are booted off first if it's overbooked. Southwest economy is almost $800 before taxes. Trying to figure out if it's worth the risk, lol. The "Wanna get away" fare is $275 roundtrip, which is more affordable; but I have no idea if that means my ass gets booted or if Southwest even overbooks. --- |

I don't think I'm gonna be able to. That's an $800 flight. Holy shit that's way more expensive. --- |
| Topic | Basic Economy on United |
| MrPeppers 08/29/17 9:02:16 PM #4 | Johnny_Nutcase posted... Don't fly United. I keep hearing about how much better Southwest is, but United is a lot cheaper. I've flown both recently and it's about the same level of service. I haven't checked a bag with United, so I don't really know if it makes that much of a difference. We're talking the difference between a $200 round trip flight and a $600 roundtrip. SGT_Conti posted... If they overbook, you'll be first kicked off the flight. If I do get kicked off, they will accommodate for the next available flight, right? It's not like I get completely screwed and they just take my money with no alternative? --- |
| Topic | Basic Economy on United |
| MrPeppers 08/29/17 8:56:50 PM #1 | Hey guys, looking at booking some flights and the Basic Economy vs. Economy prices are much, much cheaper. Looks like the only additional fee is $25 for a checked bag each way, but it's still cheaper than standard Economy. Is that really the big drawback? I don't care if I have assigned seating and I don't need a carry-on. I just don't want to essentially pay for a standby ticket on accident. I'm flying by myself so this seems like the right choice. Anyone a little more experienced with airline tickets and all of this semi-confusing terminology? --- |

If it doesn't matter, why even waste the energy to come up with a new name and even a potential mascot revamp? --- |

| Topic | Ancient Egyptian themed frat party cancelled because it offended racist SJW |
| MrPeppers 08/22/17 3:47:52 PM #30 | eston posted... She's the president of the school's Egyptian Student Association, so it's her job to take a hard stance on something like this. I don't fully agree with her, but I can see where she's coming from. Near as I can tell, nobody forced the frat to take action, so maybe they understood too. I think it's silly to give her any air of legitimacy by saying you don't fully agree with her. Why entertain such impotent cries for racism like this? I feel like you don't really agree with her but you don't want some internet nutjob to get on your case. I am probably off base though lol --- |
| Topic | I think I had my greatest moment in medicine so far today... |
| MrPeppers 08/22/17 3:02:36 PM #1 | So I was talking to a patient in preop today before she rolled back for her c section and her husband was in the room with her. Introduced myself and went through what to expect and got a brief h&p. Then dad said he was super excited to see his baby girl and the nurse gave him a hairnet and his gown so he could watch. I asked him if he was ready because there would be a lot of blood and it may be a little different than what he's expecting... He told me that he's okay with seeing blood, him and his wife (the patient) are both EMTs, and he said that he hunts too so he sees his fair share of blood. So I replied "well sir, I know you hunt but you can't have guns in the hospital". "EXCEPT THOSE 2 GUNS RIGHT THERE!!" *points to dads arms*. Dad instantly gets excited. lololololol --- |
