I also work in a small, 4-bed, critical access hospital where drips and invasive lines are rare. can I get into school? Maybe one that is easy to get into? Also, wtf does a CRNA do? I don’t care, I just want money and lifestyle.

I’ll try to be brief and also clear.
I love most conversations with my wife. We flirt, have decent intellectual conversations, discuss our needs, wants, etc.
The conversations I struggle with: the complaining. We do the same job in the same place. I understand sharing some little things, or constant annoyances about the job. But I often find myself listening to elaborate complaints about things that don’t actually matter, or hearing about them again and again. “So-and-so said it this way, and she’s mean.” Yup, that person is known for being blunt and harsh. It’s in their nature. Could she improve delivery? Sure. Does it actually matter? No. She isn’t bullying. She isnt being personal. Just comes off mean sometimes.
She complains about this and other things, like family issues, etc. But it isn’t really the complaints that bother me. It’s the ruminant nature of them. She will repeat the issue over and over in a slightly different wording. When I think it’s settled, it comes back up days or weeks later, and I hear the exact same thing again.
I get that it’s bothering you, but how many ways can you share the same story? How long will you let it bother you? Either do something about it or let it go.
Thanks for reading.
edit: I have suggested either calling out the coworker or trying to see it from a different perspective. Maybe not taking it in the worst possible way and giving her the benefit of the doubt. Like, find the best meaning of what she said and accept that. Or just ignore the comments. But it always turns into “she should…”
but you cant control others. So again, either confront or let go.
I posted some time ago that I’d just bought my first pair of IEMs. From what I’ve read and experienced, these are warm/neutral, and I think they seem to have a bass boost. I am not using the 10 ohm adaptor - it boosted bass more and sounded loose.
What I’ve learned about my preferences so far:
I like this profile - warm-neutral.
I enjoy tight, articulate bass. If it were loose or muddy, I’d not enjoy it at all.
I love clarity. If I could “feel” vocals and the texture of the instruments better, I’d like that. Better soundstage would be welcome.
I like the bass, but I’m not opposed to warm/neutral without the boost, and then playing with EQ to find what I like most.
My iPhone EQ is off - I don’t care for any of the presets. Does that make it flat? IDK, but it doesn’t sound flat.
Id like to step up the IEMs and eventually get a DAP.
Recommendations for IEMs and DAPs are welcome, though I know there are a ton throughout this community page. Thanks!
