Is how I make a living worth what i'm paid for it? The simple answer right now is no. The more expansive answer is also no. Where is the price point that makes spending most of your working life as the subject of other peoples violence worthwhile?

To be clear, it is not harmful for any modern car to be turned on and then immediately driven in anything from 32f to -10f (and probably lower). Your car is perfectly fine to fire up and drive even in super low temps.

Start it, let it run for about 20 seconds until it settles into an idle then drive slowly with low load(low RPM) on the engine especially if you drive uphill from your home or work. Keep RPM's on the down low until engine reaches full operating temperature.

Hospital security, in a major mental health and trauma centre, when i started there we did about 10 to 12 incidents in a 24 hour period, we are now doing 50 to 60, no extra staff and no increase in pay, give or take a couple of grand i make the same money I did 12 years ago. It just doesn't stop, spend the whole day going from one arsehole to the next and its every day. ****ing exhausting.

Expound please. When my son was about 7 my wife was in a pretty severe car accident. My son suffered a concussion. Directly after, in the hospital, he kept asking me what he was doing there, where are we, and then repeated that again and again. They gave him a stuffed animal in the ambulance and he kept asking where it came from, then would say what ambulance, and it all started over again. For the next few weeks he just went blank when we discussed the accident and didn't say anything. Then for years afterward he would get really mad and leave the room when we discussed it, and when I asked him why he said he can't remember any of it and it scared him that we can all remember and he can't. He lost memory of a day or 2 before and cannot remember anything on the day of or about the day after. It bothered him so much he would cry about it when we talked about it. To this day he cannot remember anything. He is 26 now and it obviously doesn't bother him like when he was 7 but he says he still feels anxious a little bit when we talk about it. So what do you mean when you say the biggest lie?

PTA is an actual thing I seen it and Im sure its horrible. Its being over diagnosed at work because it provides doctors with the legal framework to hold people against their will. It is being abused as a legal provision by trauma doctors to hold people whose life choices they disagree with. The PTA test once your diagnosed is fairly hard to pass, I doubt most of the people we deal with could pass the test pre-accident, they either pass it cause they memorise it after a few days or it no longer matters cause the doctors feel their post op risk factors have improved. Meanwhile, these people, almost all of them IVDUs are basically imprisoned in the hospital, they take their frustration and violence out on the nurses and us, while the doctors sit in their office on a different floor and never have to deal with it. Its an abuse of the law, violation of these patients rights, (I'm quite happy for them to leave the hospital, couldn't care less if they lost an arm or a leg, die of an infection, it will make breaking into houses harder for them) and actually makes the ward they work on completely unsafe for the nurses and other patients.

Somehow I'm really good at picking out the shoes that squeak when I go from wet/snowy outside to somewhere with tile or concrete type floors. No one else is squeaking along but there I am squeak squeak squeak.
