  1. A Hit With The Ladies

    If you are currently still employed, are you giving money to family members or relatives laid off or furlouged?

    A Hit With The Ladies posted a topic in Disaster Preparation

    I gave my younger sister my $1200 stimulus check because her job furloughed staff (she wasn't making much to begin with) and she apparently bungled her tax returns, had to file revisions, and didn't...

    If you are currently still employed, are you giving money to family members or relatives laid off or furlouged?

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to A Hit With The Ladies's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Oh I've encouraged her. She has procrastinated on everything and won't respond to my texts when I ask her about it. It must "stress her out". Far and away one of the worst people when it comes to...

    COVID-19 and Hurricane Season-20 - The PERFECT storm

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to NunNurseCat's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'm a Houstonian. We are already getting economically ruined by the oil/natgas industry collapsing coupled with the state economy shutdowns. I was here during Harvey, the supposed "once in five...

    "At Burger King, We're Updating Our Safety Procedures"

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I wouldn't eat at Burger King if the food were all free. It's so disgusting tasting to

    How do you do lab work on patients while maintaining social distancing?

    A Hit With The Ladies posted a topic in Disaster Preparation

    I draw labs in the morning on my patients (I work overnight), and for me it's usually a very fast process (doesn't take more than 2 minutes). Once in a while, though, you get a 'hard stick' patient...

    States are reopening. As a nurse who takes care of COVID, how do you personally feel about going out and seeing people?

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to EDScrubLife77's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I'm already comfortable seeing family or others in the community. Remember that children's story The Emperor Has No Clothes? Most of us are going to end up getting Corona sooner or later, yet few (if...

    As a nurse or other healthcare staff, have you personally cared for someone suspected or confirmed of having Coronavirus (COVID 19)?

    Fear and Anxiety

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    That's great that your city isn't imposing levies. Here in Houston, the county judge says $1000 fine for those seen in public not masked up. Unbelievable. And like I mentioned before, here in Texas...

    Fear and Anxiety

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    People can make their own sacrifices if they so choose to. Months have already passed. Enough is enough. Those who want to keep up with the endless quarantine can do so. Our state is thankfully going...

    Fear and Anxiety

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It's tyranny because people are being fined or threatened with arrest for merely wanting to breathe without a mask on in public. That's unacceptable. This is America, not Communist China. If you don't...

    Fear and Anxiety

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    The anti-smoking law targeted smoking. These laws are "guilt without evidence" and label everyone as Coronapositive. When the government requires sick people to stay home, that's quarantine. When...

    Fear and Anxiety

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    What is an "inconvenience" to you is tyranny to others. As Benjamin Franklin said, "They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety". If...

    Fear and Anxiety

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I have no issues with masking in public. I do it, too, unlike a lot of people out in the general public. I have no quarrel with state and local governments strongly encouraging it through public...

    Sick but negative

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to Panda Girl's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I agree with speedynurse, if you're feeling sick, don't go in regardless of the Corona test

    Fear and Anxiety

    The "right to swing your fist ends where another man's nose begins" analogy fails because it assumes that everyone is Corona positive and deliberately and maliciously infecting someone

    A Personal Valet to the President Tests Positive

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I hope that valet gets better! As for the masks thing, I have never seen Fauci or Birx wear them. Neither have they "socially distanced" themselves from each other or from Trump at the podium....

    Which nurses are considered frontline?

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to rubyagnes's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I, too, was wondering that. I'm a volunteer to float to my psych hospital's COVID-19 unit. But I haven't been floated there. Suppose I spend a shift there. Does that automatically make me a frontline...

    Fear and Anxiety

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Look at how the government has been in recent history. The War on Terror is nowhere near it was after 9/11, but the Patriot Act is still law and still used to surveil us. Now the government is using...

    With all the divisiveness - I figure we could use some Country Music

    A very good song! I hadn't heard it before. Thanks for sharing

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    You're welcome to relocate to a Communist country. Over there, if you don't want to quarantine their authorities grab you off the streets, throw you in a van, and have a nice cold cell ready for you....

    Fear and Anxiety

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Quarantine yourself if you're vulnerable. Nobody is dragging you out into the public to go to work if you're so scared of Coronavirus. Free country. Likewise, we don't have to cater to

    A Hit With The Ladies replied to spark plug's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Before Corona, were you living in a hazmat suit 24/7 to protect all the unfortunate immunocompromised souls in our society? No? Because you believed that people at risk are responsible for their own...
