Any assistive technology professionals(ATPs) here?

I am interested in getting into the field and am curious as to what those working in the field like/dislike about it. I currently work in the physical therapy field and I’m looking into transitioning out of patient care.

If you have decided to forgo the high deductible insurance plan, why?

I remember Bo mentioning in a previous episode that it’s ok skip the high deductible plan if you can get a good discount on a Cadillac (lower deductible) plan. For those who chose a Cadillac, why did you choose that over the high deductible?

Help me troubleshoot my fluorescent light situation, please

TLDR: power at all four tombstones, new lightbulbs, and they will not light up.

When swapping out my lightbulbs today, the housing fell off from the ceiling and was hanging by the electrical wires. Turns out when the house was built they only used one screw to screw it into the sheet rock ceiling 🙃. Anywho, I got some toggle bolts to fix the fixture back up to the ceiling and after I swapped out the new bulbs and turned the power back on the lights didn’t light up. All the wires have electricity and so do the tombstones at the end so I don’t know what could be the problem. Prior to the situation, the lightbulbs were dim and flickering. I figured they were old so they needed to be swapped out. Any insight is appreciated, thank you.

Anyone using target date funds in their IRAs?

For those target date funds in your IRAs, what kind of returns are you getting? Are you on par with the S&P 500? I use target date funds in my 401(k) for ease of investment and am considering doing that with my IRA if the returns are similar to something like VOO.

Thyrosoothe for subclinical hyperthyroid?

I am currently subclinical and have been taking bugleweed, and L Carnitine. Unfortunately, the supplements have not brought my TSH back to a normal range. Has anybody ever tried Thyrosoothe? When I was researching hyperthyroidism earlier this year, I remember seeing the name pop-up, but I can’t find many resources on it currently. I’m not a big fan that they don’t show how much of each ingredient is in a serving, but if it has worked for others then I’m willing to give it a shot. Input is appreciated, thanks.

The background, I had blood work earlier this year due to feeling anxious and my TSH numbers were low and everything else was fine. Had blood work done a month ago and the number is still solely going down. Looking for a natural solution to hopefully not have to get on medication.

Anyone know where I can get replacement ear pads for my Crusher EVOs?

The pads themselves have come off and I’ve had to use super glue to get them back on. Hopefully I can find replacements because the headphone still work great. Years of workouts and yard work has taken its toll.

Opportunities do the public schools offer in regards to job training?

My family will be moving to the Benton/Bossier area next year from a big metropolitan area. The school district here offers a wide variety of classes for high school students to learn about things like nursing and the trades. Do schools in that area offer that kind of opportunity to the students?

Calling in sick while working home health?

What happens when you have to call in sick when working home health. I currently work inpatient and they just shift the schedule around to get my patients covered. Do you call your patients and reschedule for later in the week or does your company try to cover your session by another therapist?

Does anybody use an enigma leg strap with their non-enigma belt?

I have a Constantine belt that moves a little more than I like it too when I draw. I was thinking about getting a leg strap to attach to the belt so it’s a little more stable. Has anybody tried this?

How can I make sure a smaller insurance company will be able to pay out my life insurance?

I’m currently getting term life insurance quotes and I got one from a small local company. How would I be able to verify that they would be able to pay out my policy if I were to pass during the term?

Any here a travel agent for a place you’ve never been?

During Covid I started watching a lot of Disney/Universal studios content, specifically influencers. I enjoy learning about the tips and tricks even though I’ve never been. Does anyone here book Disney/Universal vacations despite rarely going? If so, how’s business?
