Couch 200: The Bicentennial Couch.

Np, i think you want to tell someone. Companies get excited about carp like that. They think you got kidnapped or something. They once told me theyre responsible for knowing where i am during work hours. So yeah been there done that got yelled at for it!

H has disability from birth defects (his mom did drugs when pregnant). He can't stand up all day. This job had no chairs; they had stand up desks. He was able to borrow a chair from a neighboring company, but they only allowed it for yesterday. There were other problems too. They didn't give him any papers to sign in order to work there, they only allowed him to take a 15 min lunch, bathroom breaks are needed to be made up by extra time, etc. Then there was a lot of conflict with his boss. In fact, when H sent in an email telling his boss that he couldn't physically work there full time, but was will to do contract work, the guy went off on him. H said the boss wrote him 16 times in 4 hours. Don't know if that's true. Don't know if any of this is true (he is a compulsive liar). But if it is true, I agree that he shouldn't work there. Especially being forced to stand up. And according to H, they refused to buy him a chair because they didn't have room for one in the office.

I had a root canal finished this morning. Now waiting to see if the pain is manageable enough to still be able to talk with T.

I can’t even log in on a browser (same error message lemon gets with PMs)—I have to use Tapatalk.

Dental pain is the worst, isn’t it? After they did the first part of the root canal I had bite issues and it was excruciating until the swelling came down and they could fix the issue. I felt as depressed and hopeless as in my worst moments. Pain is really awful.

I hope we are both feeling better soon!

I stopped by a gluten free market this morning and the owner was trying to create gluten-free corn dogs and gave me a sample. I've never had a corn dog before in my life, gf or not.

Celiac = new experiences.

There’s several likely violations of federal law right there, starting with the Americans with Disabilities Act. I’d threaten them with reporting them myself, but he might just be well out of the situation there.

I think you should go too. Like LT said, a different perspective is always good. And see R as normal.

What do you think is behind your ambivalence about going to therapy?

When are you having us all over for dinner?

How have you gotten this far in life without a corndog?

I confirmed it!

That i would be wasting his time, being upset over small things.

But it's also the fact that I'm a heavy crier. I've only had 7 sessions in 2.7 years where I haven't cried. R is pretty used to my sobbing. New guy might think I'm too ill to be ever actually be able to be a functional doctor.

I was just looking at my freezer and it's PACKED. I was thinking I need to do some cooking.

BUT I only have one pint of Talenti. Can you all share?

One of my ICU attendings cries every time a patient dies and in practically every family meeting we have about end of life care. Definitely not something that will keep you from being a good doctor.

I received a job offer today - the pay, the hours, everything is great except the commute is a little long (about 25 minutes each way) compared to now (I live a 5 minute walk from work/30 second drive). It's nearly $4 more an hour and gets me off of the overnight shift.

Husband doesn't want me to take it but he is negative and cynical about everything - and he definitely doesn't like that my hourly rate surpassed his.

I told them I'd let them know tomorrow afternoon but I'm leaning towards accepting since everything is perfect except the commute - which isn't bad, especially for my area.
