Half way through Q3 and still haven’t gotten a solid answer on when to expect the game.. do we still think it will release in Q4 or are we going to have to wait until 2027? I thought the partnership announcement was a sign that it was basically ready to launch. Really wish we had some intel leaks from someone on the inside

I’ve seen some people say that GTA6 will have an impact on it but I’m not sure I agree.. based off the genre alone and the TF genre is a very niche IMO and may not have a ton of overlap for their target audience

Currently I’m enrolled in AP2, micro, fed gov (8 week) and Tx gov for this fall. Microbio and AP2 are on campus, which has me on campus M-Th for around 3 hours a day.

My question is for those who took AP2 online and lecture, would you recommend online version? Would it be worth it to cut my days on campus in half? I considered this for micro but lab has to be done in person anyway but for AP2 I think it can be done 100% online.

I like the idea of doing the online class on my own time.. but if doing it in person would be that much more beneficial, should I keep lecture?

Of course we expect the curriculum of a doctorate level program to be rigorous and challenging, but CRNAs often mention the struggles of dealing with different preceptors. Navigating the personalities of their preceptors is described as exhausting and draining, but they don’t ever elaborate or give any examples.

Is it bc you’re being fake all day and walking on egg shells to make these different preceptors love you? I’m sure it’s exhausting to play kiss ass all day but looking at the bigger picture, isn’t this something we all have to navigate in our working environments?

Would love some clarification and examples of personal experiences that would highlight the difficulties commonly mentioned. Also, a comparison of a what you deemed as a “bad” preceptor to the ones you felt were the best. TIA!

The first exam opens next week. We have covered about 29 chapters so far. The EAQs have only gone over 4 chapters.

If you’ve taken it, can you share how the exam is structured and what it covers? Did you see EAQ questions on the exam?

I’m assuming this is proctored through respondus lockdown?

Best tip on how to study for it?

In the fall I plan to take AP2 and microbiology. Currently I have them both as brick and mortar classes alternating M-TH for about a 3 hour block, however I’m wondering if I could switch micro to online and save me two days of being on campus

Has anyone taken microbiology online and would you recommend it? Or is it better to take this in the classroom?

I have a nest doorbell camera that is wired in, however, for the last several months it’s been “offline”. I try to reconnect it to wifi and if says “there’s a problem connecting, try moving closer to camera” but I’m literally touching phone to it.

It doesn’t ring when pressed outside. I can’t see out of the camera through the app. The weird part is that every now and then I’ll get an alert saying camera offline but it shows a screen shot of what the camera saw at the time of alert. Rarely will it say “someone’s at the door” and again with a photo, so clearly it shows it can work.. I will say though, sometimes the photos are weird colors like it was losing power or something. Wires doorbells don’t require additional batteries as well so they?

Any tips on how to get this POS back online?

I was transferred into her Nursing Patho class without my consent. I cannot find any info about this professor. Has anyone taken her before? This is online RNSG 1311

I am new this semester and start classes in 2 weeks. I see that it shows the ebooks I’ll be needing but I can’t access them.

Does anyone know how to do this? Is it locked out until class starts? Do I have to make my own account on redshelf or is it already set up since I can see the books I need under “my materials”

They are supposed to be included with tuition

‘What do you wanna be when you grow up?’ Was always a popular question as a kid. It’s something we started fantasizing about as young children and we would constantly change our minds as we got older, or maybe we were pressured or influenced by our parents/family to pursue a particular path.

Eventually comes a moment when you feel like you have the answer, or at least a good idea of the general direction you want to go. Some of us are chasing passions or hobbies in hopes to make a career out of it, other people are chasing pay checks/life styles and then there are those of us who have a calling. We envision ourselves in the role and we start to mentally plan out the path we need to take to achieve it.

I remember I wanted to be many different things growing up, but one thing that remained constant was wanting a career in science/health care. I took a career aptitude test in grade school and it said I should be a dentist. I took this as a sign that I should be in medical field. My dad’s best friend is an optometrist, I thought that would be an awesome career. Optometry was my goal for a long time in grade school. I remember the exact moment I first heard of anesthesia and was immediately drawn to it. (I was a bus boy at red lobster at 16 when I first imagined myself as an anesthesiologist) — would you consider any of these as “callings” ?

Fast forward 6 years, graduated college with health sci bachelors. Almost pursued ABSN but ultimately decided against it. Fast forward another 14 years, 35M now, still never got into the medical/health care field but recently started my journey into nursing school that I should have done 12 years ago.. and my long term goal? CRNA- which is still an anesthesia provider that I used to dream about when I was 16.

I found an entire community that is also pursuing anesthesia and it’s exciting to feel like I’m apart of it and it has me wondering.. is this what a “calling” feels like?

Is anesthesia my calling since I’ve always felt weirdly drawn to it and fascinated by it? Or is it more of health care in general being my calling? Is it possible to have multiple callings?

I have a 10 year old GSD. He used to have a big nether (choc lab) that passed a few years ago. We have a 2 year old cat that loves the GSD. They play together occasionally, but you can tell my GSD is slowing down.

I’ve had the mindset of letting him live out his golden years as the star child who gets all of our attention.

I keep having this reoccurring thought about bringing in a new pup or if we should wait it out.

Pros:
-I’m not working right now so I have all the time to focus on training a new puppy
-I think after the initial jealousy that he would enjoy the company of another dog (but I’m not 100% sure of this)
-the puppy and cat would likely play more often

Cons:
-puppy will be taking attention away from older dog
-older dog might not want a young puppy around

Has anyone had experience with this and what do you recommend?

This is one of the most infuriating things that happen in my car. I’ll plug in my phone for maps or music, barely touch the usb cord and it disconnects (not physically) and won’t play my music or anything. I have to unplug and retry several times. If the wind blows too hard or someone stares at the cord too long, it disconnects. I wanna scream every time, it’s so annoying.

Yes I’ve tried charging cords.
USB ports don’t seem to look broken or misaligned

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Was laid off in January and cannot find work in my field. I have decided to go back to school to do a career change but in the meantime, I am on unemployment benefits that will run out in a few months. Starting in June and through December, I’ll be in lecture 2 days a week in the middle of the day, so a full time 9-5 job won’t be an option. Was hoping to find a part time job that makes at least $2k per month minimum. Thanks in advance!
