Ah, natural selection at work

Darwinism at work.

I'll say it again, Tiktok is all that is wrong with social media.

It is the absolute abandonment of reasonable thought in order to portray yourself as a celebrity.

EDIT:

Yes it is the app and not the people.

If you dig a tunnel under a lake and tell people that glory is through the tunnel and halfway through crawling through the tunnel it collapses, you can't blame the people.

7 million for a fucking door? They must have run out of ways of pocketing the money.

Promise?

Why?

My hometown makes the front page of reddit and it's for this... couldn't be prouder.

Odds are the degenerative diseases are environmentally caused. That’s what you get for growing up with leaded gas and unchecked pollution. The clean air and water act cane about because everything was bad. And rivers on fire wasn’t unusual.

I feel better. I feel happy!

And a horribly written article.

I never said the caregivers were to blame only. It's a systemic and foundational issue. I'm sure like any job you're given shit sandwiches, but the staff at many of these facilities signed up for a job to take care of someone. I'm not saying this is an indictment on you as a caregiver, but my grandmother has had two strokes and recovered at two separate facilities and the same problems with the staff exists. It's one thing if you're understaffed and you can't clean someone up in a timely manner. I get that there's only so much you can do with 4 or 5 CNA's for an entire facility. That's a facility/industry issue. It's another thing if two separate facilities have the same issues with talking shit about residents right outside their door, showing attitude towards residents, actively mocking residents, etc. I get its a shit situation to be into, but that's the job you and these other caregivers signed up for. I agree we have to pay more to get the good caregivers like you in there and get the bad ones out.

Addendum:

My first day as a caregiver, I was assigned an entire floor in a facility for 8 hours solo, no training. By the end of the day I was put in hospice care again with no training.

Having to "trial by fire" care of 20+ disabled seniors and 8 or so near death ones almost made me quit this job the same day I was hired.

How about paying us more than min wage if you don't want the worst people to take this job.

Almost all "good" caregivers are actively trying to jump ship to hospitals. I only became a caregiver for the resume experience, it's a really unforgiving job. You see the most horrible shit daily, like family members trying to accelerate thier dementia grandparents demise by not feeding them, bed bounds that can't afford 24/7 care so they only get 4hrs a day so the shift is absolutely packed with having to clean feces, give them a bed bath, make 3 sets of meals, etc.

you’ll be stone dead in a minute

A lot of those facilities are fucked man. My grandmother was in one for like 4 months to recover from a stroke and the facility was so understaffed and the staff treated the patients like shit. My grandmother told me one of her roommates soiled herself and literally was there with the shit in her depends for an hour and a half. I can just imagine how careless these Alzheimer facilities are where they know they can fuck with these patients and sadly many of these elderly people don't have a lot of family visiting them consistently to check in on them like I did with my grandmother. All of these neurological diseases like Alzheimer's, ALS, Dementia, etc should be given billions in funding from the government. We have to find better treatments or a miracle cure.

Pretty memorable little day for this duder.

That's a lot of headline.

That was my first thought as well. Bit looking at the article, it turns out that these benches are just a little slopped along the long axis. They'd be just as good for sleeping on as level benches.

You know that's not true. Why say such a horrible thing? So much hatred in this forum, sadly. I weep for your country.

👍

lol, sure buddy. I am glad we both agree you cannot back up the claim you made.

Also, feel free to look up the word yourself. you're either being disingenuous about this or you're about at thick as it gets.

It doesn't really matter which one it is I was just going with the more polite option. So ok, you're not disingenuous (thought you clearly don't understand the word) and you are slow and need to have stuff clearly explained to you. (which I guess would explain why you can't understand what disingenuous means).

Thanks for making sure I understand.
