Similar to above commenter, I’m just flinging poo, but

Those who are trained in the tougher situations are, I imagine, more desensitized and therefore don’t do the egads! sort of gasp. I imagine they probably don’t necessarily need to rely on that burst of air because they’ll take a purposeful deep breath before heading into the fray.

That being said, I think professionals do still gasp. It’s probably just not something one’s brain really catches onto. But it is a startle reflex - so if a surgeon is squirted in the face with blood, if there’s a close call with a firefighter, if a cop walks up to a car and has a gun out under their chin… I imagine each of these will get a little gasp at the very least.

Ehhh to be honest, I’ve gotten a little too comfortable on the other days of the week just slacking off, so I’m hoping my brain will let me power through at least a few items today so I don’t look like I’m doing nothing.

My work does 4x10s so most people choose to have Fridays off instead of Mondays, which means it’s extra quiet on Fridays. Great for productivity.

But aren’t oranges actually green?

*Not a joke, btw. Oranges grown in tropical places are green.

When I was younger, I believed that if a woman was raped, it was her fault for what she was wearing. My highschool friends called me the most unempathetic person they’d ever met and I was proud of that.

Thankfully I’ve turned right around on all that and learned empathy. I’m ashamed for my younger self, but I know they were just doing the best they could with the very few tools they were given.

Fuck you and fuck this

Good evening, I’m Geometric Croce, here with Ogee Cass for this evening’s segment.

Happily! I’m glad you’ve been enlightened!

Ohhh the greatness of the image is from The shoe body bop
It’ll get stuck in your head forever, your welcome

Honorable mention of the prequel Something terribly offensive

Oh. What a… lovely picture you’ve painted.

(It is gross, but I have the absolute utmost respect for the things emt / firefighters / medical peeps put up with. Hats off to you all)

I work with computers to map things.

Across my various jobs in this field, the days were usually varied but fairly busy.

I worked for a government agency that would map abandoned mines and locations of mishaps to better understand what kind of environmental issues were posed. This involved meetings with hydrologists, miners, drone pilots, and field workers. It also had some field visits, itself.

Another one, I worked for a city’s outreach program and I often was in meetings explaining what I could do, and then I’d have to gather maps and data to put together the product they wanted.

For another job, I had to cross reference a ton of city and county data to find land lots that were large enough for a developer to potentially purchase and then build housing on. This included looking at zoning laws and reading a ton of documentation about new zoning and votes for such a thing. Also included learning about what each category of zoning meant.

Currently I work for an energy company and it’s varied in a lot of ways. My day to day is never the same and is kind complicated to the average bear.
