My hospital got its first shipment of the vaccine yesterday. Apparently 5 people received it today and they're working on getting a clinic set up to administer it to employees and we're supposed to start receiving emails tomorrow for when we can go get it. They've got some method prioritizing who will be able to get it first. I'll await my email and get it as soon as I'm able to. Hopefully not too long. I don't work on any of our COVID units, which I'm sure those people will get top priority. But the rest of the nursing staff should be next in line, I'd imagine.

Post your bad habits and let's shame each other into quiting

Same. I jog typically 6 days a week and do some weights. I lost about 15 lbs at first, but it's plateaued there, because my diet isn't the best. I've mostly dropped soda, though. More just an occasional indulgence now. -
What do you use to cover bowls in the microwave?

Paper towel, dude. -
The spy has finally come in from the cold

I've never heard of him. On one hand, that's surprising, given how much I read, on the other, I never was into that genre. -
That's good.

General Gaming What are you playing today?

Animal Crossing and Assassin's Creed Valhalla -
Really, it's probably the best idea. I keep forgetting these things came out. Usually, I'm at least somewhat excited for new consoles, but this gen I've met with a shrug. Add in the apparent issues and I've even more satisfied I'm waiting til later next year. I figure it'll be God of War that pushes me to buy one.

Let's just say I'm not entirely sympathetic. But I have to be careful about how I act at work. I don't think she's deathly ill at the moment, but I'm betting with her other health issues she's not going to bounce right back. Oh, she also got called into HR for a meeting last week about her conduct. Seems some of the black people at work heard her rant about "hoodrats" and "thugs" and didn't appreciate it. Now she's angry and says she's leaving because "you just can't say anything these days." She's the victim.

Anyway, I'll try to make it short, so hopefully it won't mysteriously erase. Hateful Trumpster coworker I've mentioned here before is hospitalized with covid. She's called it Kung Flu and blamed the Chinese government for it all. I know she hasn't been careful since things started opening back up, eating at restaurants multiple times a week. Hope she makes a recovery, because even I'm not cruel enough to wish that on her. But she's got multiple comorbidities, hypertension, autoimmune stuff, plus she's quite obese. Just not smart.

Books What Are You Reading or Listening To?

Survival in Auschwitz by Primo Levi. I never got around to this one all these years. The Flame Bearer by Bernard Cornwell. Getting close to wrapping up this series. It's really good, but I'm trying to finish it before I read any of his other books. -
We had some doozy arguments back in the day, hah.

If you use GrubHub, UberEATS, etc, you are a bad person

I've never used those services myself. I have joined in on some group orders at few here and there. Sometimes you dot have much choice, working at a hospital. -
It feels kinda insane that I've been posting here for 10 years. I have made some good friends. 😊

I’m just about to wrap up A Promised Land. It’s been sooo good. Current fiction is Night Road by Kristen Hannah. I need a good drama. -
20% is my standard. Exceptional service gets 25-30%. I have tipped 10%, but that’s only been a couple times and for exceptionally shitty service. As in, the place wasn’t remotely busy and we just got blatantly ignored. Dunn what that was about. Actually, I think the manager just gave us the meal on the house that time, so I suppose we didn’t leave anything on that occasion. So maybe I’ve never tipped that low now that I really think about it. Thankfully, I’ve never been a server. I would have sucked at that job. I can hardly balance patient trays. And I don’t respond well when people are being dicks, so if my wage depending on being nice to assholes, I’d have starved. Or been fired quickly. I get treated poorly enough by some patients and that’s after earning a four year degree.

Caffeine and occasionally a beer. I wish I could use marijuana, but it’s not worth my license, no matter how small a chance there is I get caught.
