What do you all do?

I have been a EFDA, Dental Assistant for the last 2 1/2 years, and prior to that I was a Pharmacy Technician - I still keep my Pharmacy license up to date just in case I ever decide to go back. I would love to become a pharmacist but with 2 small kids and being 3 hours from one of the nearest schools, it just doesnt work.

But since becoming a Dental Assistant, I really seem to enjoy that. Believe me, you never look at someones mouth/teeth ever the same again. LOL :thumbup:

I do Health Information Management (HIM= half clinical half IT) for a small rural hospital. Beyond that I am a mom to 2 kids and a barn full of critters. I have just applied to the HIM program at KU Medical Center since I have nothing else to do. :thumbup:)

I'm a surgical grossing tech for a pathology group. Which means that when you go to the doctor and have stuff cut off it gets sent to me. I find the clinically important parts and send them on to the pathologists.

I think it is the best job ever. :-D

Kinda what I do...I am a histotech at a Childrens hospital. 17 years later and yep! its the best job ever!:thumbup:

1. Full Time Wife - my fav of the jobs

2. Full time Tile & Stone showroom manager - title means almost nothing...retail is not really my thing...neither is management (LOL)

3. Part time student - pre reqs for nursing program

Hopefully #3 will pay off so I can quit #2 and only work a couple days a week, then I want to add #4 (being a MOMMY)

I am a Lead Business Analyst in the IT department of a very large U.S. Airline. Love my job, hate the constant uncertainty of whether or not I will be one of the unlucky ones who gets layed off.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
