    Should I Leave?! Help!

    I'm a CNM, not an NP, so you're free to take or leave my advice. But from what you're describing, you've put in a solid year at a hot mess of a job, and have managed to survive. I'd start looking...

    No Scott Toilet Paper?

    The TP hoarding seems to have passed where I am, thankfully, as well as hand sanitizer, alcohol, meat. On a non-COVID related note, I was devastated when Scott stopped making the tubeless TP about a...
