Good luck
Change of plans. My daughter and I are making buckeyes. The peanut butter balls are in the freezer and we need to melt the chocolate.

If I cannot beat a (failed) football player at chess, well, I should off myself anyway. LOL.
I kid, I kid. I am remaining optimistic but I can't have this dude as my boss. He's got those creepy eyes.
IDK if it's diabetes or steroids or what but like, they are all bulgy and watery and they are red and like, yellowy. They are glassy too. And kind of dead.
I just can't look at them anymore. Oh well, got a day to pray about it and like, so well, um, yeah.. I am sure it will all be fine.
Because I am just not going to talk in supervision. If he asks me questions I will refuse to talk. I will hold up a "yes" or a "No" sign or a "you are making me feel like my first husband did and he was a drug dealer who is dead now. " I may also need a "maybe" sign for if he asks if I was involved.
I'm serious about the not talking that dude is WHACK.
Dudes like that get really weirded out if you... .follow instructions.

I am in charge of the jellied cranberry sauce in the can (sliced and in the fridge), I’m almost finished making brownies for my son since he doesn’t like the pecan and sweet potato pies I bought, and I’ll do the green bean and sweet potato casseroles in the morning. I’m gonna pig out.
That's awesome, wish I could get one of my daughters in the kitchen with me. It's probably my fault, I can be a perfectionist in the kitchen.

I just saw this...yep...McCormick makes it and I think I’ve seen store brands as well.
), everything you wanted and desired.
BCF is currently having a 20% off sale so now is a good time to get flavors.
I had my carb day today. I work tomorrow so no carbs. I had a goat cheese/vegetable pizza for lunch and supper was corn dogs with fries. I made a cheesecake with strawberries and cool whip. That was our thanksgiving. I also found out I have to work a active covid unit tomorrow. Everyone has covid 16 people. Yikes!
I also found out I have to work a active covid unit tomorrow. Everyone has covid 16 people. Yikes!@stols001 What exactly is happening with you? Are they trying to terminate you? or just a tiff between you and your supervisor? I'm sorry I don't understand your posting.
P.S. You described your supervisor as a zombie. Yellow eyes is not a good sign.

Hello everyone. What do folks think about FA White Peach? One of the better peaches? I have it on my shopping list and I don't remember why.
Golly @Koolkiz , sounds like you were better off having your Thanksgiving today!
That is something that really annoys me about PPE, is like people donning it improperly or whatev. so you have to buy your own. When I worked that O/N shift this NURSE came in with his "fully furnished to him face shield" and like , mask and whatnot just WALTZING into the common area all a-drip with COVID.
I believe there was another big study today indicating masks don't really work any better than social distancing but I do sort of wonder if "how they were used and was social distancing really practiced, etc." I mean.. IDK.
Anyway I wanted to snap at the nurse "You just freaking went into a POSITIVE FREAKING PRESSURE ROOM AND IT WAS BECAUSE THE PATIENT HAD COVID and NOW HERE You are DRIPPING it all over us. THOSE ROOMS ARE EXPENSIVE FOR A REASON.
I would have to say the majority of medical errors are human failure. I am sort of getting to the point of like SERIOUSLY wanting a doc who.... uh... is a robot. Really. Not a human operated robot but a robot.
There are some kinks to work out but I am fairly certain a robot could be PROGRAMMED EVENT TODAY TO NOT ENTER THE COMMON AREAS after a COVID or A MRSA or a WHATEVER PLAUGED patient had been seen, and shaking its darn GERMS everywhere in a '"safe" area.
Plus: Maybe video games and books on tape. That could distract me during the COVID swabbing which I am VERY happy to report I have no longer had to have since that last one in the ER.
It's like nails on a chalkboard only inside your brain and like carpentry nails not fingernails, on your BRAIN. I am sure they have better tests now but meh. Who knows. I bet they are still using the cheap plastic swabs on some of us.
I am really going to have to address with my doc this vaccine actually and how it might interact with my meds, the way they engineered it is not typical and I need to make sure I should not wait. I already had it so I'm kind of easy going there.... I really don't' want to say, render my lithium ineffective for the rest of my life I mean it does not SEEM like it should be that way but I am not a Vaccine specialist or doc.
I really do like my new doc.

It's kind of a tiff, and my supervisor is a new supervisor and does not know what he is doing.
I was also scheduled to work 2 back to back 9 hr shifts, 8 hours of (I was able to sleep 4 of those hours) and then back for a 9 hour shift. ER coverage.
I had what I thought was an "informal ADA discussion with him about not providing that coverage." He (later) indicated it was NOT such a discussion because I don't believe he understands what ADA protections are.
He also has DV issues in his past (I have an elderly newspaper article! Beating up some chick, check kiting, and like a DUI.) We all have pasts but getting caught back THEN was just a sign of extreme arrogance, frankly. I have a past but no convictions and it's no biggie. He has spoken to me a couple times using the type of tone I would not use on a DOG,
He has done no paperwork, his teachings are not only wrong, I have to unlearn them, and NOTHING in my file is up to date. He has cancelled 3 out of the last 4 meetings. He supervises some "ongoing" employees but like uh, I am his first real "new" supervisee.
He is pretty not smart, and I am pretty smart. I am also ADA protected and Unionized and me and the new SW kinda upset the apple cart and went and joined and they told us of some unkosher practices and whatnot. So the supervisors are PO'd basically.
They have been exposed..
Well it's hard to fire a unionized and ADA protected employee but it is also unpleasant to have a miserable time.
God, the thing that annoys me the most is his IQ. It would be like having to talk with the pet someone dumped on you and you didn't really like, honestly but it could talk. Crazy..
He could be doing any drug, IDK. They don't drug test on hire past a certain pay grade at this VA which to me is a bit nuts because you can be educated, functional and still a drug user.
i assume all things will settle out in the end.

He will not talk to me that way again.
