Based on my experience, sometimes MJ helps my pain, and sometimes it makes it worse. It really depends on the strain you get, which changes based on what your guy can get. If we could go in the stores and know what we're buying, it would be more than helpful.

Worse. Based on whether my students pass a test that I've never seen and will never see. Also whether or not my principal is having a bad day or not

But you get paid the full amount that week though right

FTR I would not have your job. Much respect for educators. Dealing with parents has to be the worst thing ever.

Medical regulations have gone off the charts stupid. Reimbursement associated with patient satisfaction. So if we save someone's life and they complain because of broken ribs that occurs during chest compressions (happens with adequate CPR) some jerk in a cubicle decides the amount that Medicare/Medicaid pays to the facility or provider. There's a saying we use "Did you die? The score should be 100".

Not the full amount.

Reimbursement is associated with patient satisfaction for facilities and providers. Staff such as nurses still get paid their regular rate but are on a short leash if satisfaction scores are low are attributed to them. It's crazy

Well that's because the medical insurer would rather the patient die. That way the costs shifts to the life insurer.


Kidding, kinda....

Appreciate what both of you do. I have good friends that work in both fields and I tell them all the time that they don't get enough credit and support for what they do.

All good. Throughout my college years when someone asked what my major was, and I would tell them Biology. They would immediately ask if I was going to be a doctor. I told them they couldn't pay me enough to work in a hospital. You're a good man (and every other nurse/doctor) for choosing that field. Also, explain one thing to me... Why do so many medical personnel smoke?

Heck, I think we should just abolish the states and create 13 districts each with their own speciality like timber, power, grain, etc. Then, we can select a certain number of people from each district and have them perform a task to see which is more healthy.

I think I read some novels a few years ago that had an idea like that..

Same reason soldiers do, the calming effect.

Wrong. If you don't smoke as a Soldier, you get put on details and have to do more work. Most Soldiers start smoking to avoid getting tasked with extra work. If two Soldiers are on a break and one is smoking ANF the other isn't, the one that isn't smoking is obviously not in need of a break and is free to go rake pine needles or conduct a police call for dangerous and unsightly pine cones in the area.

Lol. This is so true. I have quit now but I smoked all throughout the Navy. I tried to quit on one deployment and quickly learned that those 10 minutes I used to go smoke were my breaks, so I started smoking again to get my breaks back.

It is so stupid. If you don't want to fill your lungs with harmful substances that will dramatically shorten your life you obviously don't need a break that badly. Lol.

Since you have been such a chatty cathy and told everyone their reasoning is naive, what is your reason behind legalization?
Click to expand...

I said that I don't care if it is legalized.
I also don't care if it remains illegal.
Basically, I am fine either way.

However, if anyone knows of a state going legal, let me know . I would like to cash in on some of the green...money not MJ

My son has to be at football practice at 5:45AM. Evidently, I post way more after dropping him off cause I have time to. Not in work mode yet...and coffee isn't ready yet :hi:
