Frozyre , in Florida doc not wearing hearing aid couldn't hear colonoscopy patient screaming: complaint

How about he's not allowed to perform them for the rest of his life? What made this guy decide "oh I think I can do this without my hearing aid!" that time? Because no where in the article did it state it was by mistake if this happened in two procedures.

Yeah he should lose his license.

Booohooo they don’t let me discriminate against people I don’t like! So intolerant!

Don’t know what happened to “love thy neighbour”/The Golden Rule, but some Christians sure are struggling with that part of the Bible.

callouscomic ,

Most Christians have always struggled with that part.

Setting aside religion, I used to have a shitty boss who would never shut up about how the platinum rule is better than the golden rule (treat people how they want to be treated), but them would proceed to never actually follow it and never really understood how he treated people.

People suck in general at just giving a shit about others. They just want to sound and feel like they give a shit without actually following through.

cheese_greater ,

What’s the platinum rule?

I like it, sorta suggested it unknowingly previously :D

NoIWontPickAName ,

Treat people as they want to be treated

homesweethomeMrL ,

I hope you find some better humans!

optissima ,

People who claim that that’s not already part of the golden rule don’t understand the golden rule anyway.

That’s the church modernization strategy right there.

Here are the rules you should follow the rules.

Preacher, I disagree with the rules. The rules make me feel icky.

You should just do your best end repent and give back in another ways. By the way this month’s tidings are a little light can you help us out.

prole ,

To be fair, there’s a lot of contradictions in there regarding how one should treat other humans.

For example, Jesus endorsed slavery, which doesn’t seem very “love thy neighbor” to me…

betterdeadthanreddit ,

You love them so much that you just have to own them.

Hackworth ,

Small point of clarification - God endorsed slavery. Jesus doesn’t say anything about it.

Bluefalcon , in Florida doc not wearing hearing aid couldn't hear colonoscopy patient screaming: complaint

In one instance at the Tampa Ambulatory Surgery Center in June 2023, Prasad “improperly delegated” tasks to a surgical tech, the complaint reads. The tech did not have a medical license but was instructed by Prasad to perform at least one inappropriate task from a list that includes scope insertion, scope manipulation, manipulating an instrument over polyps or tissue, or removing polyps or tissue.

“(Prasad) did not immediately stop the procedure when it became apparent that (the patient) was not fully sedated,” and he failed to realize it because he could not hear the yells, says the complaint. Tasks were also inappropriately delegated to a non-licensed tech during the procedure, the complaint says.

Not once but twice did he instruct a non qualified person to perform medical producers. Pretty open and shut case for pulling his license.

Good. Who the fuck wants their children being taught by intolerant bigots? What kind of example is that setting for them? Freaks like this shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near kids.

werefreeatlast , in ‘We should have better answers by now’: climate scientists baffled by unexpected pace of heating

The answer is aluminum roofing! I was a the beach a couple of weeks ago and you just couldn’t step on the hot magma for any amount of time. But if you sat down on the shadeless aluminum benches provided by the idiots at the government, you were welcome to the best feeling of freezing your ass off while searing your nuts off. It’s aluminum, we know it can reflect like 90% of all incoming light including heat and UV…and Wi-Fi. But I much rather have antennas that allow phone communications than to have to run the AC non stop even when the house has more insulation than my fridge.

The amount of hostility in here is nuts.

callouscomic , in Teacher says contract wasn't renewed because he wouldn't use trans students' preferred names

“Your contract WAS renewed, but I don’t think we used your information, like your name or identity or anything. I’m not sure how we referred to you in the paperwork, so I guess we won’t be able to find it.”

lath , in Teacher says contract wasn't renewed because he wouldn't use trans students' preferred names

As an employee of the school, the only names he should be using are those registered in its official documents. Personal desires should not matter for either side.

Einstein ,

Uh no. Not that hard to call a person by the name they prefer. Don’t be a bigot.

lath ,

Bigotry has nothing to do with it. The name registered is the one that should be used. If your registered name with the school is Richard, but you wanna be called Private Dick, then register it. If you can’t, then that’s another issue entirely.

You’re a dog whistling bigot, nothing more. You think you have some gotcha with your logic because you’ve given this literally zero thought.

For every single school I was in, you were asked in addition to your official name that what do you like to be called. Or rather, “which name is used”. I’ve several (three) first names, like my man Jack Black. He’s always been called Jack, by his parents, since he was a kid, but according to you, his teachers should’ve called him Thomas.

What is Jack Black’s real name?

I have three names, but ever since I was a kid, my “actual” (the one actually used) name has been a nickname if one of those three. In the sense of Richard being Dick for English speakers.

Teachers would often just read out the names from a list, but after a few times of not getting my attention (because my ears don’t register my first name as well as my “actual” name), they’d start using the one that I was actually called.

“If you want to have a nickname then register it formally”

Which is way harder than a teacher accommodating kids… something that’s very much a key thing in the whole field of pedagogy.

Also, if you changed your kids name to all the nicknames they’d have over the years, you’d end up doing it constantly and then they’d have a silly one when they grow up.

Why can’t you understand how easy it is to just call someone the thing they prefer? Just how much of a shit do you need to be to refuse to say a different word for a thing?

It was your personal desire to comment this right? Better delete it because according to you your personal desires don’t matter either!

Fuck off bigot.

Let it stay so people know what kind of person they are

lath ,

I’m not speaking in an official capacity towards a group that requires me to treat it objectively and without bias. I am not a teacher and none of you are my students.

So I can and will say in a personal capacity that you’re an idiot.

DmMacniel ,
@DmMacniel@feddit.org avatar

Bigotry doesn’t make an exception wether it is showcased in an official capacity/private or personal capacity. As you demonstrated with your comment.

You believe in objective morality, don’t you?

Cadeillac ,
@Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

I’m sure he would have no problem calling a, let’s just say, James David JD if that is what James David preferred. This is just bigotry for the sake of hate

lath ,

I’d rather they didn’t. As an official, fraternizing individually only creates problems overall. A teacher should teach a class objectively.

However, any other extracurricular activities should be separate from regular classes and the relationship is more tight knit, so in that circumstance, nicknames wouldn’t be an issue.

Ir you don’t separate work from personal life, you’re going to have a bad time.

Cadeillac ,

What is your government name so I don’t accidentally call you the wrong thing?

lath ,

I don’t work for the government and neither am I here as an employee, so have fun with that thought for a while and see what you can learn from it.

Cadeillac ,
@Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

That’s what I figured

conciselyverbose ,

As a fucking educator, you should be connecting to every single student in your classroom on a personal level, or you’re unredeemably shit at your job.

prole ,

Every teacher I ever had in public school throughout the 90s and early 00s asked students to tell them if they had a nickname or a name they preferred to be called on the first day of class. And then they would do their best to adhere to it.

Every single one. Nobody gave a shit. There were more important things going on like, I dunno, educating children?

lath ,

Most of my teachers in the schools i went to never used a nickname for their students. Those that used nicknames were the exception, not the rule. And guess what happened to them. Parents complained of favouritism and the grades they gave were questioned.

Every single time. People do give a shit about the non-educating part and it’s an issue schools have to deal with when they’d rather not.

Cadeillac ,
@Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

Confirmation bias. Got it

Eggyhead ,

Are you telling me that if a kid named Timmy wants me to call him Tim, I should only be calling him Timmy? Fuck that noise.

lath ,

If you’re the teacher of a classroom and it’s not part of your contract to call Timmy as Tim, then little Timmy can go legally change his name to Tim.

Cadeillac ,
@Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

If you call him Tim bad things could happen. It’s a slippery slope to child abuse
