At work I have one foot mentally out the door already.

This works both for and against me because at times I have a tendency to talk back (example: telling a director of nursing that no, putting a wig on a TBI isn't going to somehow make her appropriate for the dementia unit) and in other cases I just let the stupid things go (example: adding a

Since so far none of the banks I've looked into offer consolidation, I'm starting to think maybe I won't do it since I don't want to just use some shifty broker off the radio or internet.
