I'm sure Rocketsan and Speedy have some contacts that could get you into gay porn.

 

You already work for the government so it's not like you have a good reputation or morals to worry about.

 

Have his people call Speed's people...

Right but pedialyte is like 50% as effective at 3% of the cost.

 

I love the idea, especially since I'm sure there are numerous tax benefits and PR goodwill from hiring veterans, just don't love it for the price locally. If I could get a $20-$50 IV, I'd probably do it semi regularly.

 

What I do not understand is that there would be some type of delay in getting the IV. Calling, waiting, etc.

 

In that same time period, wouldn't a few glasses of water, gatorade, pedialyte, or whatever kick in.

The television show (on Showtime) Billions showed this exact scenario happening in their third episode this year (last night). A bunch of people at a hedge fund drank too much at a poker game. Next day nurses show up and charge $500 or $1000 per iv bag. Fictitious surely, but the timing was good in terms of this topic.

It's a great show if you've never seen it.

It's been 50% as effective for you? Maybe for a very mild hangover, but Ive had mornings where 3 or 4 bottles didnt make a dent. IVs offer immediate results and are 100% effective. One bottle of the stuff runs $7 out here and my price point would be somewhere between $50-$100. If I need to feel my best---to enjoy vacation days instead of sleeping, participate in a wedding, or to go to work---Im going with IV every time. Maybe Im just spoiled because I can give them to myself at home though. lol.

I don't know, selling bottles of pedialyte may be a wiser decision then the IV. Especially if purchased in bulk. I don't know if someone who is pass out wasted is gonna be looking for your van and taking money from someone in that condition is questionable. Seems like a lot of overhead and potential headaches for something with a small specific customer base.

 

I'm not a doctor but I wouldn't advise giving yourself an IV and definitely not after drinking.

Ha, we'll I'm certified to give myself, among others, IVs ...and after a hard night of drinking is just about the only time you'd ever actually need one.

It's all good. When I was a phlebotomist, I used to take my own blood whenever I needed testing. Didn't trust anyone else. lol

I would pay good money for a solution to the problem of having to get up and take a leak in the middle of a movie. In the non-luxury theater it is a hassle to get past people to go and take a leak, and then you have to come back. Plus the amount of time, hopefully you don't fall to your death tripping over someone's purse. In the luxury theater it is a bit easier to get in and out, but still miss the movie. With movie running times getting up there I have oft considered the long drive methodology of bringing a gatorade bottle but the last thing I need is to get spotted hanging trout in a clear bottle and end up not being able to go near a school for the next forty years.

 

Solve THAT problem in a way that doesn't involve diapering up and money will start rolling in. Extra points if you make something cool like the Stillsuit from Dune that will turn my pee back into the beer from whence it came.

I'm certified to drive a commercial semi but it's not wise to do it $hitfaced.
