Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
man it must’ve sucked so much ass being a nurse during COVID
Hands down, no question. It was still the early days, april 2020, so I am a bit less forgiving than later in 2020. Nurses already got the short end of the medical stick even before covid
this instance was just particularly memorable.
A nurse once told me to “mind my own fucking business” when I said “are you fucking kidding me?” to seeing her pull off her mask to cough into her hand and go back to the shit she was working on during covid lock downs. In the ER nurses station, surrounded by nurses with asks completely down or with noses poking out.
10/10
There was on one that I’ve been in, not sure about this one.
From my understanding, when an MRI is emergency stopped it doesn’t stop immediately, and it causes a lot of damage, so staff are less likely to use it in an emergency. Stupid, yes. But when you’re worried about getting fired for hitting a button, you’re less likely to think of a situation as an emergency. You would think “chain strangling a man” constitutes an emergency though…
As for the staff not stopping the guy making a beeline for the door with more than just words, I’m not sure. I would prefer staff tackle me to the floor rather than let me blithely walk to my doom. Of course I’m only in my 30s…
The hospital is absolutely partly to blame, especially if they didn’t properly convey the danger beforehand. All 3 hospitals I’ve recieved an MRI from have been pretty insistent about making sure I have no metal on or around me before I go in the doors though.
I’d say it’s about 60/40 on the hospital.
Tldr for safety
To actually answer your question instead of piling on, it’s a hospital, not a prison. In case of emergencies, the door absolutely cannot ever be potentially locked, even while the machine is on.
With how easily something can go wrong in an MRI, they need quick access without the addition of special keya/badges to get inside or relying on people inside to hit some lock release.
In cases like this it makes perfect sense to have a lock because an idiot was outside and ignored all the warnings. A lock would have prevented everything that followed him entering.
Buuuuuuut unfortunately we can’t cater the entire world to the biggest idiots, if only for the safety of the less idiotic who might have a heart attack in the MRI and need to be quickly pulled out, or a piece of metal that snuck into their food and is now ripping out their insides.
In most situations where an emergency happens inside, quick reactions save lives, and locks slow reactions down to the slowest mechanism, which might be “I don’t have the right RFID badge, go find another person who has one or the guy inside dies”
how did it not throw up red flags all around letting this guy wear it around that machine.
He wasn’t allowed in the room.
His wife panicked in the MRI, he charged into the room he was told not to go Into.
Matthew 6:5
And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.
But of course, none of them have ever read these words, that would require reading the Bible in some form or another.
I’m so glad the people around me who live nowhere near a field voted to kill field-to-solar projects around here, the factories and warehouses that went up where there used to be lovely views of the hills are much better. All that extra pollution and noise really adds something special to the day.
I stopped being “Proud to be an American” when I started learning more than my Christian republican parents or Bible belt education system taught me.
While nothing that came before I was born was my fault, it’s certainly nothing to be proud of, and nothing that has been happening since has been much better.
Sure, we haven’t directly been carrying out genocide, but we sure support it! With the very arms used to carry it out, and intelligence support, and so on.
We haven’t been enslaving huge swatches of people for arbitrary traits, but we sure do enslave imprisoned people which also due to socioeconomic reasons and good old fashioned racism also happen to be a large percentage of people with aforementioned arbitrary trait.
We may not have been openly declaring war on everyone, but we sure do like to interfere with special military operations and sabotage. Yesterday’s supported insurgencies are tomorrow’s enemies who have every reason to hate us.
Saying you’re “Proud to be an American” today is a flashing neon sign that says “I’m a racist piece of shit who hates everyone who isn’t exactly like me”
That’s actually a common misconception.
It’s not because Japanese ninjas are bad at being ninjas, it’s just that other countries ninjas are completely invisible to the naked eye.
Obviously we all know we can see our own country’s ninjas, but other countries are invisible.
Thanks to years of cultural import/export, most humans can naturally see Japanese ninjas.
So congrats, if you can see a Japanese ninja, you’re actually just close to being a weeb.
But the economy has never been stronger!
Of course it’s held together by billionaires in bunkers trading stocks in companies that no longer exist, and they only have their food storage remaining until they all die, but hey… The economy!
Less money on social programs
How dare you, they would never lower them even more than they have been!
They would maintain the status quo, and in 3 years open up an inquiry as to whether a committee could be established to contemplate on the possibility of maybe increasing their budgets by 0.00001% over the next 100 years (which can be canceled at any time for no reason)
Then sit back and pat themselves on the back for being such a man/woman of the people.
Why not just tattoo a number on their arm?
I’m sure there’s no possibility that subdermal trackers would ever be used in shitty ways.
that they released at the scene
An important inclusion
My Christian relatives are big fans of the Bible, supposedly.
I believe there’s something in there about “from dust we were made, to dust we return” (paraphrased) so it would even be biblical, as long as we dry and pulverize the fertilizer!
This is sounding better and better. I do want a much bigger garden so I can grow more of my own food…
Well depending on your diet, that square could have been fertilizer, so I’d say it was considerably more valuable than any claims made by ICE.
Don’t undersell your own shit.
And all they ever accomplish when trying to show force is to look like scared little bitches.
three claimed to have been too intoxicated to know who was driving
Then they can all share the same maximum punishment.
They never wanted to stop human trafficking.
They want to be in charge of it.
Funny Spock
Oh god please no
Give me socially awkward, trying to be funny but not quite getting it yet Spock.
