Oh we've been feeling those effects since 2020. We have been understaffed since the pandemic and sometimes it feels like we'll never be properly staffed ever again. I think the austerity measures that were taken during the pandemic (and which made corporations tons of money) have just been kept in place ever since because it saves their bottom line

We are always short staffed, in fact I can't remember a time when we weren't short staffed. Every single person works overtime to try and cover shifts but we really need to get some people hired. The problem is these jobs don't pay enough so its very hard to find people to take them even if they need a job really bad. Its been rough.

I’m about a month post FET, and after a positive beta I was feeling all of the classic symptoms (like nausea) from like week 5-6. But, this last week the nausea has significantly subsided (though not completely gone). Has this happened to anyone? We have our first ultrasound in a week - so nervous!

48/M, average health. Few weeks ago I had a seizure out of the blue. First time ever, no family history. At the hospital given lots of tests: MRI, CT, EKG, EEG, blood/urine/COVID tests. Everything came back normal. Since hospital discharge I’ve seen cardiologist and wore halter monitor for a week. All good. Have neurologist appointment next month but afraid no one knows why this happened. In the meantime no one wants me to drive a car. Can this happen again? Can anyone relate to this situation?

I work in a state where abortion was previously banned and is now still pretty heavily restricted.

I have a new employee that started last Monday, unfortunately it’s not going to work out. Long story, but we’re fairly certain the individual is using Meth and appears to have started/restarted fairly recently. I work with physicians, so it’s a consensus. We have to terminate employment, but what ethical obligation do we have? Two young children at home and no spouse. This is weighing heavily on us.
