"I have no idea what I've been doing, but she's getting naked. Cool, I guess?"

"Wait, why is she pulling out a knife?"

"I hope there's a good reason for that murder spree."

[Kagus]

"No, no, put your clothes back on right now young lady, you are definitely not legal!"

"Oh, you're not actually a lady even. Please stop taking your clothes off."

"Wait what the fuck even is that? Put it back."

[Gunner-Chan]

Great now the both of you have me thinking of an alter version of Alstofo getting naked before going on a killing spree, thanks I need to think about naked cute pink haired boys gutting people at 3am, that's totally normal.

This is largely how I learned English. Untranslated RPGs.  Guiltiest parties are "The Savage Empire" and "Ultima VII"

Sales exec allegedly gave doctor lap dance while pushing opioid prescriptions

The fuck.

fentanyl spray

The fuck.

The link isn't working as intended. It goes in the more general ArsTechnica/science category instead of the specific article.

[wierd]

but the story is item #1 in the lineup.

And yeah-- wtf.  Fentanyl SRPAY?!  (yeah, I'm sure dosing is gonna be reaaal accurate.)

[Yoink]

Aw hell yeah! Can I get a canister of that to fit my ventolin inhaler?!

[Ulfarr]

Honestly, I didn't notice it was in the list when I skimmed through it, my bad.

[Kagus]

Well, I'm the one who thought that the link would actually go to the specific article, and not some overview page I hadn't even been to...

https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/01/opioid-exec-a-former-stripper-allegedly-gave-lap-dance-to-doc-in-bribery-scheme/

This one might work better? Dunno, I don't really see how that's so different from the last one, unless I managed to screw something up (which is entirely possible, formatting stuff via mobile interface is a massive pain... Almost massive enough to need some nutritious and delicious Fentanyl Spray!).

Why doesn't this *ever* happen to me???  All I get are biros 

[Ulfarr]

Second link works flawlessly. It seems that somehow "opioid-exec" became "opioid- exec" in the first link. No idea how that extra space got in.

I get what you are saying here.. but do you specialize in terminal patients, or patients with extreme pain management needs?

If not, that is probably your answer.

Just set it up with the fire sprinklers. If the day is particularly stressful for the office, just turn the crank and give everyone a spritzing of really powerful pain killers.

..going ooc/serious a bit. I *do* in fact have patients fitting that bill. I am not usually involved with opiates, for threefold reasons:
- most of the routine prescriptions are handled by my minions
- I'm not comfortable with opioid management here. I get the feeling that they fear NSAIDs too much, and they prescribe too strong opiates, too early. So I'm not happy starting the heavy stuff in routine scenarios.
- In cases of severe, difficult to manage pain, I prefer to defer the actual management to pain units and/or palliative care. It's not that I *can't*, but its not something I do routinedly (whereas it IS something they do routinedly)

My field is blood disorders, specially malignant blood disorders (eg, leukemia, lymphoma, plasma cell dyscrasias). This means prescribing a range of expensive and specialized medications, often chronic in nature. So I don't really lack for pharma reps from which I could request stuff. I have never, however, requested a lap dance, because I keep a strict divide of business and pleasure.  Also 90% of those reps are men, so it's not something I'd particularily like either. In that scenario I'd rather stick with biros
