Given the choice, who would want to work for them? Out FSE told us they rely heavily on lab assistants

That, too! A lot of people that lost their jobs when Quest bought us out retired or moved out of the area.

No, it’s actually pretty good. Someone theorized they might have been using offer letters to get raises at their current jobs

Happy Birthday!

You look great, and I ❤️ the cut!
November 11, 2025 at 5:59 AM
I’d wager the new lab is going to try and rely heavily on lab assistants
November 11, 2025 at 5:43 AM
We had THREE people accept, then back out 😭

Forgot to finish my first thought.

The C suite might not even know that we had a reference lab!

I’m fairly certain the whole C suite has turned over multiple times. If it gets sorted, our providers will be happy. TAT for outpatient testing went from a couple hours for local providers to almost a day when we got sold to Quest

Yeah. Not sure how they’re gonna staff it, since it took us 9 months to fill one position! They also have to keep our lab staffed since it’s for the hospital!
November 11, 2025 at 5:32 AM
Nope! If I want it on my medical record (which I do) all our outpatient work goes to Quest

Don’t worry though, the same system that sold the lab to Quest now is rebuilding a lab in the exact spot where they tore one down 😂

I made it no problem 😌

Not an easy task without killing a bunch of people!
November 10, 2025 at 5:10 AM
Same!

I work in a medical lab, and the lab scene in the 1st episode made me giddy 😂

I am floored by Rhea Seehorn’s acting

I keep thinking about what I’d do if that happened to me. I’d very likely be more Carol, ‘cause that’s just my brain 🫠
November 9, 2025 at 6:30 PM
It’s so great.
November 9, 2025 at 6:26 PM
Same! I have been smiling every time I think about it
November 9, 2025 at 6:23 PM
Ha! I keep thinking about the zero fucks he gives about what his peers might think, and am so here for it
November 9, 2025 at 6:17 PM
I’ve seen that look with mine! Is the belly a trap?
November 9, 2025 at 6:08 PM
I love it so much!
November 9, 2025 at 6:07 PM
I can’t wait to see where it goes!
November 9, 2025 at 6:00 PM
Yes! It made my morning 🥰
