JFC, ExLax. Were you ever really a medical professional who suffered a calamity or were you always a fucking moron?

Why didn't you take the bet, Doc Chickenshit? Is it because you know you little semantic games are lies? The fact you lie so much tells me everything you say or claim has lies in it.

From your first link: An automatic weapon (“assault rifle”) can shoot more than one round when you pull the trigger. A semi-automatic weapon (“assault weapon”) does not.

From your second link: What’s called an assault weapon (or sometimes an assault rifle) in reports on gun violence is a semi-automatic rifle that looks similar to the assault rifles used by the military. An AR-15 rifle, like one that has been used in some mass shootings, is an example of this type of weapon.
Time until a chickenshit derails into a "large font" argument: 10....9....8..... LOL

Since I have both a Master's in Nursing AND a MD with specialty in Anesthesia and a Fellowship in Pain Management I'm an expert in Nursing and Medicine. You are correct that hospitals run on Nursing power. I have seen some EXCELLENT nurses and some that were there just for a paycheck. But the same goes for Doctors. I will give you two generalizations though. The worst nurses tend to gravitate to the night shift because that is where the least patient and doctor interactions takes place. The best nurses tend to gravitate to the day shift.because that is where the most patient and doctor interactions take place. (The evening nurses in the ER are the best generally because ERs get busier when the Doctor offices close for the day.)

Now for the Doctors. Doctors that are educated and trained out of the US and Europe are frequently not very good because many of them that train in India and Mideast don't have the same value for life as American and European trained doctors. Many foreign trained doctors are very smart but they just don't value life the same. I have seen them abandon patients on several different occasions. That just isn't that common with American trained doctors. Foreign educated but American trained (American residencies) are better though.

And you found it appropriate to mock weight issue of nurses because of your expertise?

Any citation for this claim?

Apparently you haven't worked in a hospital for years then. Whether they're working 7a-7p, or 7p-7a (usually much longer because few get to clock out at official quitting time), nurses and PCTs are running their butts off. Patients don't stay in the hospital for long any more so those who are in there overnight are pretty damn sick. As for your own claims, you have claimed to be an anesthesiologist and you've claimed to be an ER doc. Or was it a nurse anesthetist? I don't remember, but you've claimed a lot of crazy shit.

Not every hospital is on 12 hour shifts. Most around here have a combination of 8, 10 or 12 hours shifts .

I wanted to go to medical school but I had to work my way through college and could not afford it.. I graduated from a BSN musing program in 75 and a MSN program in 79 was a nurse till 88 .(I also worked a little as a nurse during medical school) Working as a nurse I paid my wife's way through Court Reporting school and for my college loans. Then when my son was born in 87 she and I decided I should go to medical school so I took the remaining premed classes I needed.. As I have said here before I have moonlighted in the ER. I did it a lot during my residency then kept it up on a more limited basis after my residency because I like the variety challenge of ER work. It makes you into a more rounded doctor. I retired completely about 3 years ago.

No. I wanted to be but I wound up in industry.



I did a degree at Mizzou and worked with some grads of Wash U. Good school. And when I lived in St. Louis briefly as I finished my thesis I used to live at Talaynas when it was across from Wash U.

Great pizza! Small world, neighbor! My sister lives in Columbia and worked for the University Medical Center (ICU RN) till retirement.

Who prescribes HCQ over the COVID vaccine and can't find his ass with both hands. Sure, "doc", whatever say. LOL

Of course it was, but that's how elderly males often behave on this forum when attacking someone else's profession. He/she thinks I worked nights, even though I have publicly stated I worked evening shift until I transitioned to an officie position doing UR. They also think people still use bedpans and that anyone helping another human with toileting needs is somehow doing scut work.

Sad.

Are you a professor? My favorite neighbor when we were kids lived across the street; he was a professor of geology at Washington Univ. (St. Louis). He gave me a wonderful mineral collection one time.

My operating theory is that they are in pain, feel sorry for themselves, and are assholish enough to take their pain out on others.

New hires *always* get stuck on the shit shifts, so just because someone is on nights doesn't mean that they are crappy or lazy health care providers.

As for foreign-trained physicians, all of my kids were delivered by "foreigners." One of them saved my life and my son's life. OTOH, Mr. Owl had an acute gallbladder attack about 10 years ago. I took him to the ER; they did labs and stated that he needed a chole stat. But then the physician, who had a thick accent, told us that "Americans always want surgery. In other parts of the world, people just learn to live with gall stones and watch their diet." We decided since Mr. Owl's urine was turning dark we'd ignore that guy, and he had the chole. His common bile duct had been blocked by a stone.

She’s not intelligent. Did you miss where I stated that I had a friend with whom I used to whitewater kayak, who turned down a full academic scholarship to Harvard and her reply was that she :rolleyes: rolled eyes , (couldn’t believe) that *I* had turned down a full whitewater scholarship to Harvard?
Did you also miss where I guided her to a link and she still couldn’t find it when everyone else on the thread had no problem seeing it before I held her hand to it?
No, she’s dumb as a box of rocks. Ditzy as hell.
And she’s never been a nurse. Nurse’s aide, maybe. And there’s nothing bad about that. Just don’t pretend to be someone you’re not.

Are you saying the Foreign doc wasn't very good?

Were your foreign doctors TRAINED in the US or out of the country?

Yes Nurses TEND to get the less desirable shifts when they are new BUT the nurses that STAY on those less than desirable shifts TEND to be lesser quality nurses. There are exceptions to every rule. Sometimes you get a great night nurse that has to stay on night because of a shift deferential pay or childcare etc.

ExLax does appear to be a bit ditzy. Why do you think s/he keeps claiming to be both a nurse and a doctor?

You are exactly right.
When i was in dental school I had a part-time job at a hospital doing EKG’s at night where I could get a fair amount of sleep.
I know exactly what you’re talking about.
