What's Your Biggest "Fuck it I'm doing this!" Moment? | r/AskReddit (Rerun)

I am Charissa and my recommendations to all entrepreneurs start with Shopify successfully. I have been using Shopify for the first day and the platform never makes me any problems. I have many problems, but the platform is never one of them. I have the feeling that Shopify can continually optimize their platform.

Everything is super easy, integrated and linkable. And the time and the money I save can be invested in other ways, especially in growth. Now free tests on Shopify.de Hello everyone. Welcome to today's episode of Reddit readings.

Have you ever had a feeling when you just say, fuck it, let's do this, and zone away from the consequences? This episode is about that feeling. Enjoy. Reddit readings, episode 46. What was your biggest fuck it? I'm doing this moment.

I was a flight nurse at a company who liked firing people. We were transporting a patient from a car accident who became pulseless. For policy we were meant to go to the closest hospital. Our closest hospital was 9 minutes away, however this hospital was tiny and couldn't

care for our patient. 13 minutes away was a trauma hospital. Our patient was dead and statistically speaking was going to stay that way, but his only hope was the trauma hospital.

I told the pilot to go the trauma hospital knowing full well this would be reviewed and I would be fired for violating policy. Fortunately the trauma hospital did a fabulous job and he survived. I was reviewed but not fired.

Further details. The policy is closest appropriate facility when the patient had a pulse that is trauma neuro-surg burns, pets, etc. But when you lost the pulse, the belief was any ED is better than a medic and

a nurse in the back of the helicopter. I tend to agree with the philosophy behind the policy. Doing two-man CPR in the back of helicopter is very difficult and tiring, and we didn't have blood, lab work, etc.

I also imagine most areas don't have two vastly different levels of care with just a few minutes difference. The belief is land. Go to the ED have more manpower and more tools.

If you get ROSC, get back in the helicopter and keep going. The patient would likely have two bills, but that is another story. Our belief was the patient was hypervolemic and needed a courtesan to mass transfusion, getting emergency release of blood at small hospitals never happens quickly, so the argument

would have been we made our decision on time to blood versus time to hospital. We probably would have still been fired, but it was our best chance. Bought a sailboat. Quit a decent paying job that I hated.

from New York to the Caribbean where I hung out for a year then sold the boat back in Florida and then spent the next five months hiking the Appalachian Trail. Went back to work for a year and now I'm currently backpacking through Southeast Asia for the next six months.

First time I fast roped out of a helicopter. I was just a photographer. Photographed lots of guys going out the back of aircraft over the years but never jumped or roped myself.

One day I was shooting some folks during a week-long training exercise, and they asked if I wanted to make a go of it. No pressure, the guy in charge even told me the aircraft could easily just land if I didn't feel comfortable.

But I figured if somebody else can do it, so could I, so I got a few days of training on the tower, and then it was off for the flight. I was nervous as hell, even though they told me it was probably just going to be a 20-foot drop.

As we got closer, we started counting down the minutes. At two minutes out, the door was opened up. Thirty seconds and we unhooked and sat on the floor. It was night out and I couldn't see anything and I was hyped up with nerves and energy,

but I also wanted to show myself that I could do it. Remember, the person behind me ate if you get hurt on the way down roll to the side as quick as you can, otherwise I'm landing on you and that'll just suck. And that was it.

The person in front of me was out the door, and the crew chief was slapping me on the back. My feet went over the edge, and the only thing I remembered thinking was fuck it. It was pitch black, but I remember thinking it felt like a longer drop than the tower. I hugged the rope close to my chest, and kept my feet kicked out, like they told

me. Eventually I saw the bottom, and landed more or less upright and whole. managed to get clear in a few seconds and get video of the next person dropping. Later I found out what was supposed to be a 20 foot top turned into a 50 plus foot drop. In

the dark I wouldn't have been able to tell, but I'm still proud as hell of myself for doing it. Deciding to go on a solo backpacking trip when I was 18 years old. I'm a warrior and not very good at handling stressful situations and at the time I was also super introverted.

That trip really helped me realize that I'm capable of a lot more than I think. In the spring of 2017 I was contacted on OKCupid by an Australian woman in her mid-twenties, while she was in Argentina. She said she liked my profile and that she would be in Texas in two weeks and wanted

to hang out. I agreed, and then two weeks later she stood me up. She messaged me that night and apologized and asked if we could try again. I reluctantly agreed. When we got together we hit it off super well.

We talked a lot about her travels. She'd been backpicking around South America for three months. She told me about how she hadn't really planned the next part of her trip. She just needed to be in San Francisco in two weeks to fly home. She wanted to do a road trip from Texas to California, but didn't realize how expensive it would be, and also didn't

know if she'd even be allowed since she didn't have a US license. Earlier that month I had been talking to a friend in San Francisco that wanted me to come visit. I had been saving for a vacation, I own a truck and a mid-slash small-size travel trailer. Campgrounds are cheaper than hotels and I was already thinking about making that exact road trip which I
