You must decide

Ehh, I'd prefer they bag it and put it in my trash bin, rather than just leaving a pile of shit in my yard. I'd honestly prefer neither, but using my bin to throw poop bags or even loose trash doesn't bother me too much

But my bin is also only on the curb when it's trash day. And they pick them up twice a week here, so a poop bag won't necessarily "marinate" in there for long. And I rinse the bin with a hose if it becomes gross, but that's rare because usually the rain will handle most of it

But that's just my particular situation, so it doesn't bother me as much. I could easily see how a multitude of different factors, might make the situation aggravating/infuriating

Never thought I'd feel lucky about my trash bin situation though. Sometimes it really is the little things I guess

I'm a nurse working in a large hospital. I did ICU nursing for almost 8 years, and now I'm a "float pool" nurse... which means they send me to whatever unit needs help that shift (Except pediatrics. That's not my gig, and our pediatrics has a separate Children's Hospital anyway).

Every day is a new adventure. I might be working in one of the ICU's (Neuro, Cardiac, Surgical, Medical), or I could be on any of the other floor units (Med-Surg and such). Currently on a Nephrology unit, cursing the fact that I scheduled myself to work the night that time rolls back an hour. So it'll be a little over a 13 hour shift tonight :(

But it's hard to say what a typical day looks like. Lots of charting, time management, monitoring, and critical thinking... as well as the physical aspect of patient care. It's definitely interesting and I love it. But it can also be draining (physically, mentally, and emotionally), so ya gotta make sure to maintain your own balance too

I started watching Star Trek solely because of the memes here, and it turned out that I really liked it... and then my wife joined me after just a few episodes of TOS. Turns out we both really like it and now have a plethora of great sci-fi to watch together

We've watched TOS, TNG, and now we're about halfway through season 1 of Voyager. Plus several movies in-between. The memes converted us lol

First I've heard of this. "Better to keep your mouth shut and seem stupid — rather than open it and remove all doubt". Elon really is a massive dipshit

They're still in use at most banks where I live. Most hospitals use them too; way faster than dumbwaiters

Damn, I haven't thought about those in a long time

[–] MrShankles@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Ahh, completely forgot about that one

My Chemical Romance — the first two albums at least, wasn't a fan of "Black Parade"

I kinda forgot about them, but same. "Frakenstein Girls Will Seem Strangely Sexy" got a lot of plays from me when I was in highschool
