How bout them Rangers.

I don't know much about sports, so that's my go to.

Doing more applications today for anything, really. 4 weeks just to start means I'm a month and a half from another paycheck.

Pharmacy /ER tech, other EMS jobs, anything that will have any kind of medical experience.

Gen 1 Sitka Fanatic, before they removed the hood from them.

I have the Kuiu Kenai hooded jacket. Bought it on sale a couple years ago. One of the few things from them that I would pay full price for. Warmest jacket I have.

I have a KUIU pro frame with a 6000 and 1800 bag, and I just got a venture 1800. I really like their packs. Other than that ill only buy their liner gloves. Sitka and first lite for everything else, first lite liner gloves dont last a season and sitka gloves cost too much $$$

I sound like a gear snob right now but I buy almost everything on sale.

Boyfriend's roommates just came back from well knows where after being gone for 3 weeks.

He tested positive on like the 23rd and the 10th.

He's symptomatic.

But don't worry. He's wearing a mask in this enclosed space.

I got my Sitka gear from mountain archery for 30-50% off. That Fanatic is probably warm as **** though, I've tried those on and would love that set. Kuiu wasn't as much of a sale, but its still nice.

How do you like the Kuiu pack? I went with a Kifaru Reckoning and it has proven to be a good buy.

Worth every penny. I have the 5200 and it packed out half a deer (quarters) effortlessly. Like it wasn't even there.

I used to carry around 35# of gear including climbing sticks and a lock on stand. Carried very well.

Ive since reduced down to around 15# of gear to get 20 feet up a tree, I dont even knownits there.

Maybe I will try theirs one day. I came close since it was cheaper than Kifaru, but the reviews Kifaru had were solid.

I just got my 2nd shot COVID vaccine appt email.

Better make sure you're on time for that one. Sounds like they're keeping track.

I took an ED scribe job today in other news. So exciting... Ha. Start a new semester tomorrow, training for the ED scribe spot on Tuesday, medic nremt is Thursday and move on Friday. Such an exciting week.

lol, yeah, they may very well be keeping track because of how you have to handle the vials. Kaiser staff here told me that each vial is checked out to a specific RN and they're responsible for it, and it can only be out of the fridge for a few hours before they can't use it anymore. So they *really* want people to be right on time. :)

Anyone done an ABLS Course? If so, did you find it informative at all?

yes. I thought it was valuable. We don’t see many burns... but a good class. Mine was taught by a team from the burn center and they had some great video and pictures to accent the program.
