Just because I'm normally scheduled until 4 and am scheduled until just 1.30 today does /not/ mean I am free and looking for something to do from 1.30 until 4. So no, I was scheduled off and will be leaving to get more time for chores, not covering for /your/ shift because you drank too much last night and want to go home. You /KNEW/ you worked today, you shouldn't have gone drinking with your friends at midnight last night

That may be a good thread. Home remedies that people use and they work.
Not homeopathic or something read in a herb book. Not to alienate anyone but I'm a RN and have studied medical history for the NPS. I know there a tendency to want to find a home remedy for everything. If that sounds like a good idea I may start a thread. Thanks for your input.
p.s People remedies. Chicken medicine is WAY too controversial.

I think this might not be a good idea, no offense. I can just imagine someone following someone else's stupid advice and getting really hurt. But there ARE really good home remedies out there. I just don't trust someone to not post something that could hurt someone else

Real homeopathy = placebo, nothing more.

home cures are helpful sometimes

Like, I use mint extract to help with bug bites

but I can see it becoming an issue when you really need to see a doctor but instead take dodgey internet advice

Or a spoonful of honey or maple syrup to soothe a sore throat instead of using cough drops (I can't stand cough drops).

Agree. I think all us older folks know the BRAT diet for diarrhea, as an example, but we get trolls on this website who might post something dangerous
