no you get two part-time jobs so you don't have benefits and get a tooth infection that spreads to your brain and die anyway or they just make you come in weird hours and hope you don't come in at all

a lot of dentists are loving dicks and have been so for a long time

quote:

In a paper delivered in 1919 to the Pennsylvania State Dental Society, Thomas Barrett linked the dental hygienist model to socialized medicine. School health clinics began to close. A fearmongering campaign against dental hygienists continued for decades. In the 1940s, hundreds of Massachusetts dentists attended a state hearing to demand repeal of a bill permitting hygienists to fill children’s teeth in school clinics, since it opened “a wedge for socialized medicine.” Dental organizations fought every project to expand the use of hygienists and broaden access to dental care, making it cheaper and more available.

quote:

Under Medicaid, the federal-state health program for the poor, states can decide whether to offer dental benefits to adults. Children covered by Medicaid receive dental benefits by federal law. But when states want to cut funding, they make reimbursements to dentists so low that they won’t treat children with Medicaid coverage. Fewer than half of dentists participate in the Medicaid program

quote:

the profit motive has led dentists to concentrate on more costly procedures rather than preventive services such as cleanings. In the early 1980s, fluoridation, dental sealants and other innovations were reducing tooth decay. As a result, dentists turned to cosmetic dentistry, expanding their businesses so they could be part of the beauty industry. They embraced cosmetic dentistry—where the money was.

There are 8766 hours in the year, if you get a decent amount of sleep of 6 hours per day that takes up about 2192 hours per years, leaving 6574 to work. A full time job is 2080 hours per year (no vacations or sick days ya prole!) so that means with the remaining time you can work 3 FTE jobs!

I'll go ahead and :thermidor: myself now

I worked at a Safeway pharmacy in Seattle about 10 years ago, every pharmacy chain except Safeway stopped taking the state insurance for poors because they felt their customers didn't want to mix with them. All the crazies who used to go to CVS or Walgreens started hitting us up and they loved talking to me while I worked because I didn't tell them to gently caress off like everyone else would.

BTW being a pharmacy technician sucks and I wouldn't recommend the job to anyone.

My grandfather was a pharmacist and sold his shop sometime in the 80s due to failing health and the fact that paperwork was burring him.

I have a co worker who now has had to take on a 2nd job because he wife, after 4 years of pharmacy school, was shocked. SHOCKED! I tell you that she could not find a job that was Mon-Fri 9-5 in her field. So she quit and now wants to raise her kids full time

The Taurus didn't offer much for drivers craving the sport sedan experience. That changed with the 1989 debut of the Ford Taurus SHO (for Super High Output), a Q-ship of the finest order that offered up a high-revving Yamaha-designed V-6 engine and a tight sport suspension.

I haven't been on SA for years but the person who gave me my previous av as a joke felt guilty for doing so and decided to get me a non-shitty av
A Time-Twisting Visit to the Museum of Capitalism

quote:


One case in the Grossman Gallery contains a set of mass-produced trading cards themed around Operation Desert Storm, the 1991 American-led Gulf War military operation. (The cards were “the first ever issued on a war while it was in progress,” the accompanying text explains). A wall is lined with dozens of financial planning books, all branded with the names of small banks that have been absorbed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis.

Other works attempt to contextualize such artifacts by taking a longer view. Three bags by Jordan Bennet recreate plastic Target, Walmart, and 99-cent-store bags in moose hide, the plastic equivalent of a few centuries ago. Another case by FICTILIS is filled with a centuries-spanning rundown of powerful oblong objects, from magic wands to pens to security scanners and TV remotes. “Like so many useful technologies over the last few years, wands have gone through changes, becoming more and more … specialized,” reads the accompanying text. “In many cases, they are so removed from their origins that one easily forgets their roots.”

Everyone knows that having to pay your workers is the greatest burden a business owner can experience. Think of all the growth and new jobs that would be created if people would just get over themselves and work for free.

The hard work you do should be more than enough of a reward.
