That’s the generic rejection email. LJ uses a contracted Hr company that has those prewritten, it’s pretty common. Cade and Chris can be pretty choosy.

Oh, hmm. Then, I am not really sure what to think. I wish they wouldn't use a user-generated 5 second form when I drove like 7.5 hours total for the interview. Or just not say things that might not be true. Then again, I guess I really didn't impress them and I'm sure they get a lot of applicants and why should they spend time to explain everyone's shortcomings or whatever.
I just thought it went pretty well is all. I guess not. Bummer for sure.

If you have a good email or phone number for them you could send something along the lines of thank you for the opportunity to interview I really appreciate it, what can I do to make myself a stronger candidate in the future?

That's basically what I did.
I just don't like when I don't know what they perceived to be my weaknesses. I'd like to be able to focus on improving that.

Sigh it's just the week of getting stuff pulled of trucks, this week at my fulltime job the leadership decided that we don't need to carry two different benzos and we are just going to have...Valium? I like valium for anxiety and spasm control but it's IM absorption is sooo unpredictable that I think you'd be in trouble using it for seizure or agitation control. We'd also only carry two doses of 10mg, which to me is a laughably low amount considering that we can only restock from a chief.

All you have on the truck now is 20mg of diazepam? Good luck stopping a seizure in a 120kg alcoholic or otherwise benzo-tolerant patient with that dose.
What do you use for post-intubation sedation?

Moyamoya is weird and very unfortunate. There really isn’t a treatment for it and the collateral circulation is a stroke waiting to happen.
