Hands down best IV I've ever had was an old Army doc at the VA hospital

 

tbh it looks good though; I'm going to try flashing fw or something before totally giving up on it

 

@Kwikvette When they were little.

 

The dude at the VA on my last visit was by far the quickest

 

Little dude had a lot of fun, but man the tantrums still happened

 

I gave my innovate away to another TW member when I installed the Haltech ECU. It was constantly restarting the O2 heating cycle, I've heard others only getting about a year out of the Bosch sensors with them too.

I may have a spare 4 bar MAP sensor that could work for you. I thought it wasn't working and ordered a replacement but ended up being the guage itself not reading the first couple PSI when switching from vaccum to boost. The Haltech has its own internal MAP sensor so I have no more use for it. It's ether in the package down stairs or I sent it to @Brake Weight as a bonus when he got the guage

I've been wondering if he ever got around to installing that PSB-1

 

Sometimes about a combat medic I tell you, if they can do that shit under that much pressure it's a walk in the park at a clinic

 

Yep

Meanwhile, the girl at any non-VA facility is leaving me or the wife bruises cause they stabbed through the vein

Then panic and I have to tell them either a good 4" above -not below- the initial site or try the other arm

They're slow AF about it too

 

I remember going to the hospital for an endoscopy after my kidney failed and the doc didn't show up so they asked if I was okay with a female nurse doing the procedure. My response was some things are better with a more delicate touch. she did great and more importantly I didn't embarrass myself.

 

I always just want them to let me do it myself but that just seems super crack headish

 

I'm driving 4 hours tomorrow to go camp and then run 4 mile loops for 34 hours with random people. Sounds legit right?

 

I may have said this out loud before...wife knew what I meant but not the idiot that was gonna draw my blood

 

Could make it even more awkward by inviting people from different states, some of which you never met before and only interacted with on an internet forum

Oh wai...

 

I've asked a few times, can't hurt to try haha. Which reminds me I need to renew my wilderness first aid cert

 

yuuup.

 

You mean I can't put a band aid on old Bambi if it's hurt without proper certification?

 

I've thought about getting mine - seems like it'd be smart considering how/where I run alone for miles/hours on end. Should be able to patch myself up well enough that the SOS button has something to pick up.

 

Might be state average or non union. I know guys making 300k a year doing refrigeration. I would make 180k just working my 40 every week

 

Bay area unions are among the highest paid in the nation. With Local 38 (San Francisco) being the highest paid and even have in their agreement they will make 1$ more than any local in us or canada.

 

Do you carry much with you to have room for first aid supplies. Knowledge is the easiest thing to carry wherever you go and training helps you keep that knowledge when you need it most
