My wife took the NCLEX today and shes worse than the students that come on here asking if they passed at question number(insert whatever number).

Well, if she felt like she failed, she likely was right at her ability limit. Don't have her do any PVT stuff for at least 24 hours, and if she does, be prepared to lose $200. I'll also send you a message about this...

So my partner got written up for the fridge coming unplugged and we got complained at for organizing (not moving) the cabinets by putting items in order and like items together. Apparently, it's wrong to do this and people might look past the labeled transparent plastic organizers, so it is better to have a nest of random crap in the cabinets because that's what everyone else has. Also, the collective mass of six IV catheters rubber banded together is a lethal threat if I get hit in my 1994 Braun box, because we care about safety, but said box lacks any safety features other than lap belts. Safety!



I'm pretty over this place and silly people in general today. At least you know you're not a priority at places like AMR.

So guess who got engaged...
I'm going to say... not me... because I'm already hitched. ;)

Let me guess, you gone and done something completely nuts and decided to get legally stuck with someone else...

Now, now....he said engaged, it ain't legal yet.
I said he'd decided to get legally hitched... different from actually being legally hitched. ;)

Every year Time Warner Cable raises my bill and every year I threaten to cancel and they give me an amazing promotion.

This year Spectrum Internet happily cancelled my account and took back their equipment.

First world problems.

Wurd. My wife is on the phone with them now (ironic much?), and we are in the same boat. Literally, we have been customers since their Roadrunner days back home; exact same boat.

Who did you end up switching to, and are you happy with the next provider so far if so?

My only other option is AT&T DSL ($40) at 1/10th of the speed and DirectTV Now ($35).

Apparently after 30 days I qualify as a new Spectrum customer and can sign up for one of their promotional packages.

I'm cheap, I don't want to spend the money ($255 for one month of DSL and early termination fee) when I know I just have to wait it out for 30 days.

I've been here before. Every year I threaten to cancel. Last year I even had to take the boxes into the local office, but they've always relented. Not this year.

Let me know what you end up doing, I'm not sure how long I can borrow wifi. It's borrowing, right?

Good luck!

I hate forcing borderline intoxicated person to the hospital. I feel better when my medical director is working and has my back.

I'm not going to lie, I find this ironically funny.

Update: wife finally got off of the phone after ~30-45 minutes of arguing with their outsourced tech who refused to transfer her to a supervisor.

She finally got through to a supervisor, they'll be sending a tech out tomorrow to replace our modem, and she just got a call back from a corporate supervisor directly who was much more empathetic to our frustrations. This is why I let her handle this kind of stuff...

I can't make those calls either, I end up resorting to sailor talk which doesn't help. It is hard to believe some of those folks actually are allowed to vote and breed.

You merely work in the heat. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see the cold until I was a already a man.

For those of you *****ing about how "hot" its supposed to be wherever you are just remember its going to be 122 degrees where I live on Tuesday...

Edit: Oh and I just noticed that So CAL Edison has a planned power outage on Monday when its supposed to be a cooler 120 degrees.
