I have a standing every 2 years on each of my 2 10k gallon tanks. Each year, one gets pumped. That means they both get checked regularly.

Even if it costs $200 for the appointment, it's worth it to know. They can also likely tell you the size and what they suggest for your situation. They should be able to schedule it for you so you don't need to remember.

FWIW, ask around to find a reliable, honest septic service provider. Ask your neighbors. Ask your plumber. Ask at the hardware store (if you have an independent or franchise, not a big box. Ask at the plumbing supply store.

Can you still do some prn work if you take the desk job? In my opinion, you should work while you can now to earn what you can now, and take the experience while there are opportunities. Later, you can get the desk job, but for more money, since you're more experienced. Also, there are opportunities in research/real world evidence/device manufacturers/ software companies outside the healthcare systems for experienced clinicians like yourself (even fully remote ones).

Maybe this current role isn't perfect for you, but it started you wondering, and that's good.

This happened in the US. The quality dropped, the prices skyrocketed, and the staff stopped caring. They hid fees in prescriptions- $17 for 30 pills and $15 for 4 more because there's a $12 dispensing fee hidden in every prescription. It took them a year to finally explain it to me. They fired me as a client (after 20+ years) when I questioned them. Find an independent clinic and support them!

I'd suggest replacing the wheels on your existing cart. Look at either Amazon or a skate shop. I did this and added 5 years to our suitcases. Bonus- they roll better now than they ever did.

My Leki poles are nearly 30 years old and the parts, should they wear out, are replaceable. I highly recommend them. I suggest you try out the different grip choices. Mine are cork and don't get cold, but aren't as grippy as other choices. I have YakTrax, but haven't used them (or needed them) in Iceland or Norway. In the US they were fine, but I've used them fewer than 10x in 15 years.

I came here to say this. Fwiw, mine are at least 5 yrs old. I do farm work, yard work, a lot of chainsaw/tree cutting work with them.

The flex version is better than the non flex. Pay attention to the style so you get the pocket/loop configuration you want.
