That's not fair to the students and not right for the college or school to take the money. I am glad that it all worked out though.<br /><br />Well, now they have places where phlebotomists can work all day. Plasma donation places. I'm sure each company has certain rules and training they want you to undergo, but there is still call for them.<br /><br />Yay for Guild Wars! What do you ave as a secondary profession for the assassin? Actually, what level is the character? I have a Ritualist that's still very low level and I just haven't played her in awhile. There is a website that has great builds for characters. <br /><br /> http://gwpvx.gamepedia.com/PvX_wiki<br /><br />As for burning out on it, I have experienced that a time or two. Last time I played I was trying to faction farm and I've done it tons before but for some reason that day, I just couldn't do it. It was terrible! So I got mad and quit playing for a day or two. But I have to get back on and do more faction runs to keep our faction donation up to where the Alliance leader wants it. Ugh! It wouldn't be so damned hard if my Dad could get on and help. But he's bogged down with migraines, work, and school work. crimsonlanternhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09586441423386494027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-813226226435267302.post-14588663587867282862013-06-08T22:26:12.064-07:002013-06-08T22:26:12.064-07:00Yeah, I applied for a phebotomy position and they ...Yeah, I applied for a phebotomy position and they called me and said they needed a data entry operator. So I took it and eventually got to do blood draws when it got busy, plus driving to old folks homes to collect samples. There's not much call for phlebotomists anymore. Nurses or medical assistants do it. The course I took was actually for a laboratory assistant but the teacher quit and her replacement was horrible and didn't know what she was doing. The course ended up collapsing because she couldn't teach. I just ended up finishing up the phlebotomy part of it at the hospital the other teacher worked at.<br /><br />It's actually a pretty fun job carting around the vacutainers and drawing blood, talking to the patients and getting to wear the all-important white lab coat xD Sadly there really aren't any full time jobs out there for just a phlebotomist. Most of them work from 5-7 am in hospitals after people have fasted.<br /><br />I'm about due to hop on Guild Wars and level up my assassin. I played it four hours at a stretch when I installed it and bought the other two campaigns. i ended up burning out but the desire is returning.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16414080123441313048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-813226226435267302.post-66802868476330835652013-06-08T12:31:08.629-07:002013-06-08T12:31:08.629-07:00I would hate to draw on a baby too. I didn't k...I would hate to draw on a baby too. I didn't know you were a phlebotomist, that's pretty cool!<br /><br />Guilds: that's why I invited you to join my guild. My Dad and I don't put up with that crap and we just want to play the game. We don't like the in game drama. And we will will help for free and not use it against anyone later. We're just a nice, laid back, quiet guild. crimsonlanternhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09586441423386494027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-813226226435267302.post-89728202271999018332013-06-07T19:56:33.301-07:002013-06-07T19:56:33.301-07:00Why would anyone get on someone's shit for not...Why would anyone get on someone's shit for not being an organ donor? That's pretty damn personal!<br /><br />I've seen those blood donor needles and they make me shudder. I used to be a phlebotomist but I'm a big baby when it comes to sticking needles in my own body. :P And I hated drawing blood from babies, especially using the lancets on their heels. Babies blood clots so quickly so you have to really squeeze the heel sometimes to get enough before it clots. I upset a couple of parents a couple decades ago and I ended up crying and having my supervisor take over. That poor baby.<br /><br />And yeah...guilds. All the drama involved with that stuff is a real put-off. People can be so ridiculous if they gain a little status in a guild. And people spying on you? Geez, what's wrong with people, it's just a freakin' game, you know? I will say that a good guild is worth more than its weight in gold though..virtually speaking, I'd guess it would have to be its weight in virtual gold. xDAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16414080123441313048noreply@blogger.com
