I have had near magical healing experiences with Prednisone. Sorry it doesn’t work for you @Westy It’s been a game changer for me from sorting gout attacks to biking injuries. Like a video game health boost. Not sure I’ve ever had another single drug that’s so blatantly effective. Maybe the new hayfever treatments, they are also highly effective for me. Regarding downsides, I have heard it makes some people angry and I was advised by my doctor to only take it in the AM as it can apparently disrupt sleep if taken later.

The pres came in and asked "what funky issues did you have with payroll this morning?" I said I got paid for 2 days of PTO. He says "I didn't get shit" I told him he should have taken some PTO.
When my buddy quit IT to do music, his company asked if he would be willing to consult afterwards and what would his rate be. He told them $375 thinking they would flinch. He ended up working more than 40 hours, just making WAY more money. He finally quit quit, but he sacked a lot of coin.
after my dad retired, he did 9 months of contract work overseas. let's just say that paid for a couple of his bucket list trips.
JFC. That’s wild. Re: the explosive diarrhoea, I was prescribed Omeprazole alongside prednisone to ward off this sort of thing, but have never needed it. Did they offer you that?
About a year after I left a small sketchy company for grad school I got a call asking how to increase the duration of a high G calibration system they had sold to the USAF. They had maintained my access to all the companies systems as I thought perhaps doing some paid consulting work would a good financial possibility. I asked what acceleration and duration they were looking for. My response was to resend a test report I worked on until 8:00 PM on my last day that characterized what the maximum performance specs were for the system. They had promised the Air Force specs an order of magnitude greater that it was capable of. My post script was an explanation that if anyone wondered why I had left the company, this was a perfect example. They never called again. I kind of expected them to face some serious consequences trying to defraud the US government, but from what I could tell nothing happened. Experience since then tells me there are no consequences and why so many projects go way over budget.
My dad spent his last 10 years working 6 months at Cal State Stanislaus and 6 months at the University of New South Wales in Sydney. Because of the exchange rate he made more money working 3/4 time there. University gave them a beach house to live in and metro passes. My mom took free classes while dad taught. They quit the year of the Olympics. The beach volleyball was 500 feet from their beach house. They didn't see Winter for 10 years.
No, the surgeon was a meathead. I am also pretty sure he fucked up the surgery. Despite having UCL surgery (base of thumb) I lost mobility in the last joint as well as numbness. After @jonKranked mentioned an anchor that he worked on that was likely used in my surgury, I found what was essentially an installation manual that had a warning about the importance of the accuracy of an incision, failure to do so leading to the exact problems I had.
an anchor you say? anchors away
Whatever one would use to reattach an ulnar collateral ligament to a thumb. I'd personally just go with a staple gun.
i haven't worked on soft tissue devices in over a decade.
Perhaps it was someone else. Someone I know who works medical devices.
bruh, I started with Baileys in my coffee at 6am, then had 2 cocktails with my burger at noon. its kind of a given with me
No matter the mood I am going to mock and laugh at people. If I remember correctly you have had a few epic meltdowns on this very serious and important biking forum. Something something projection?
Heh...typically having audits in place prior to completing payroll would catch this sort of thing. When this does happen, I can guarantee you the payroll department feels like shit for it.
That's because everyone will remind them.
A few?
Your calendar permissions allow people to see what you're doing?tempted to put a weeklong meeting on my work outlook calendar that just says "update resume" and see how long it takes for someone to notice
You should always assume, if there is ever any doubt, that I'm just giving you well intentioned shit.
