I'm getting an error when trying to respond to your message. I'm gonna try and resolve it in the afternoon (well, my afternoon. It's 5:40 in the morning here and I'm on the last half hour of night shift)

If you're interested in a nursing job in Germany, hit me up. I get a bonus if I bring in a new nurse ;-)

I had to google what that is. According to this link https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/careers/what-does-a-patient-care-technician-do It involves a lot of the same tasks. I do everything that is listed there, except escorting patients and cleaning rooms. But i also have more tasks. I administer medication (I can only administer medication prescribed by a doctor). I change dressings. I do lots of coordination (e.g. with the surgery or radiology team, also stuff around release, like how does the patient get home, where does a patient go if he can't live alone anymore, where do they get their medication, who will change dressings etc.). I'm also the first responder in an emergency like cardiac arrest. I should probably add that this will vary across hospitals. I work in a mid size hospital (about 500 beds). Generally the bigger the hospital the more additional staff is there to take over some of the "patient care technician tasks" from nurses. Also there are obviously jobs a nurse can do that involve medical tasks that almost exclusively, like working in an emergency room or as a surgical assistant.

isn't nursing kinda working against the whole dying thing?

I'm a nurse in germany. From what I hear from colleagues who studied/worked abroad, the job is very different in Germany than most other countries. (I haven't met anyone who worked in the US.) Mostly, nursing in germany involves a lot less medical tasks, which are reserved for doctors. In turn you'll do a lot more bedside care.

It's actually really good. Not that one in Particular, put Pizza with Tomatoes sauce, spaghetti and cheese is actually great.

What video are you talking about? The official video was published in 2015, so long before covid.

I hate that version with a passion. It takes away the simplicity of the original and turns it into an overproduced heap of garbage. I can hear the Autotune running hot to make it perfect. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with other people liking it, but I have to turn off the radio when it's on because I just can't stand it.

I don't think it's about intelligence. I knew All Star before Shrek came out, but I still think about Shrek when I hear it because I just watched that movie a lot as a kid and built up that association. Does that make me stupid?

I knew All Star before shrek came out, yet I still think of Shrek when I hear it. I don't have that association with Hallelujah.

funny, but wrong. The e is pronounced like first e in Mesmerized.

Edit: Spelling
