[QUOTE="Maglitchtrix, post: 42477, member: 2533"] 6 March Work last night wasn't bad. Sarah allowed me to drive myself. I remembered how to get there easily enough. There is a major thoroughfare (Interstate) that I take from the house to the hospital. I left at 2130 and arrived by 2200. Mitch (supervisor) met me at the front desk and took me to the office. I had to scan a badge to start my shift. In the military, funding always went to my chip automatically. Here I will not receive funds if I don't scan the badge at the start and end of shift. -Speaking of funds, the banking system here is a bit different. All of our currency is laminated. It won't deteriorate and is much smaller. It is about the size of a credit card here. From what I understand the credit system here works on a borrowed currency principle. We do not have anything similar back home. If you do not have the funds for something, you simply don't purchase it. I personally find it odd that anyone would want to owe money to anyone. I have not had any issues acclimating to the exchange of funds here. A dollar here is a dollar there. We have the same dollar incriments, but our currency does not have dead President's faces on them. We have a hall of leaders that commemorate our past Commanders but that is the extent of the recognitioning. I encountered an intoxicated person that was very belligerant that I had to get hands on with while at work. I was reprimanded for not using verbal de-escalation techniques. Back home we had a one warning policy. I didn't physically harm the individual that I encountered. I used a pressure point technique that is apparently frowned upon in the healthcare setting. I asked Mitch if I could take home a copy of the protocals for work to refamiliarize myself with company policy. He was more than willing to oblige. I also had a chance to encounter a vending machine. What a sight! Many of the foods here are processed and that is all that is sold in the vending machines. I also do not understand why you would buy a bottle of water when there are drinking fountains readily available directly next to the vending machines. It seems like a waste to me.

Mitch showed me how to "clock" out and I went to the house and went to sleep. After waking up I watched a program about a partnership that was falling apart because the husband was sleeping with the wife's sister. I didn't find this entertaining at all. Sarah told me that she misses the old me and the talks we had. I can see that she is growing weary of what is going on with me. I can only assume that it is equated to caring for two children with myself and Bret. I am considering confiding in her about where I am from. Maybe. Tonight is Salad Sunday so we are making salads and watching something called animation domination. Bret likes cartoons and is looking forward to it. [/QUOTE]
