@AnnOssinger She finally came to her senses. She is hoping to leave the door open for me to work there on my day off. I’m covering that day at my new office right now but will have it available after summer. I’ll see how I feel when the time comes. 😅

I gave 2 weeks notice yesterday and my boss is in complete denial. Today was most uncomfortable. I’m trying to play it cool but not sure I’ll make it the full two weeks. She had more than fair warning and an opportunity fell into my lap that I absolutely cannot pass up.

@ClaudiaWalder2 Thank you so much! I’ve made a home at my new office. I work just as hard but with so much less stress. They are the nicest people I have ever worked for throughout my entire career.

Dear Hygiene Patient,

We never, ever, ever, ever want you to hold the suction for us.

Signed, Every Single RDH

Fact: the more tattoos and the larger the muscles, the bigger the p’ssy in the dental chair.

PSA for dental patients:

Open your f’ing mouth!

Had a patient come in telling me her husband was instructing her on how to floss properly after seeing me.

I’m thinking I did a good job because his instructions were on point! 👏

Turn towards me and open wide 🫦

@Lowkey0nline Imagine having to live like this your whole life.

Mental healthcare worker thought it was a good idea to dump her stress and misery all over another healthcare worker.

Her recare visit was fun. She spent her exam venting to the Dr after taking it out on me all through the appt.

Dr told her to take a long vacation 🙌🏻

Patient got mad because I asked him to fill out a new health history.

Pt: This is only the second time in 35 years I’ve been asked to fill out one of these.

RDH: So what are you upset about? You’re supposed to fill out one every two years. Looks like you got off easy.

I don’t think I am valued at either of my offices as a provider. I need to stfu and start working on areas that are going to benefit me.

I know as soon as I get things rolling along, they’re going to try and capitalize off it. Not on your mf’ing life.

I’ve been working at a new practice for the past year and I’ve been getting awesome google reviews, which has made a significant increase (double) in np’s.

80% of hyg instruments need to be replaced and she wants me to buy from a low quality co. What am I missing?

@ErinBode Did you know flossing daily helps prevent breakdown of collagen in the skin of the face and the tissues of the heart? Now is a good time to start.

Why is it when I hear some hateful
a-hole speak, my first thought is wanting to kick them in the teeth?

I never act on it, mind you. It’s just a reoccurring fantasy. Is this a dental thing?

[RDH Unplugged🔌 @RDHunplugged]

I’ve had two jobs bidding for me to stay permanently. One is a very nice facility and dr gives her all. Other offers less hours, older/run down facility, and dr drops the ball all the time (personally, I think she’s smoking pot). Pay is same at both.

Kinda a no-brainer. 🤷🏻‍♀️

What say you, my dental fam?

[RDH Unplugged🔌 @RDHunplugged]

I’m over working in clinical.
My body needs a break.
