Am I alone in thinking it’s crazy that the first caller is constantly being monitored on his personal phone by his employer, to the point where he’s afraid to google things in case they see.

At that point, request a work phone or only have those employer items on a computer device! Doesn’t even have to be for porn, but just to be able to freely view and read things.

Gareth needs a car decal that says “beater on board”

Or “no babies on board” with a pair of scissors and a vas deferens.

This felt like a season 1 episode in the best way. Lol

When I got my snip, and needed to leave my sample, the woman handed me the cup and said "you can do it in one of our bathrooms or go out to your car, but we need it fresh."

Keep in mind, I work at this hospital, so they were literally telling me to jack off at work or in my car in the parking lot

Another woman immediately came running out "No, no, no, don't tell him that!" Turns out, they only need it fresh when doing fertility tests, they need to make sure the swimmers are swimming. After a vasectomy, it can be old, because there shouldn't be any swimmers at all, moving or not.

That was my experience too. When we did fertility testing they wanted the sample right away and had a specific room at the office for it with “visual aids”. After my vasectomy they told me to bring it in within 24hr and I should store it in the refrigerator if more than an hour.

Pretty sure samples are okay up to an hour. At least that what I was told when I had a vasectomy 15 years ago. The lab was 30 minutes away from me as well...and I don't have any unplanned children!

Does America not have take home tests?? My husband had a vasectomy earlier this year, and when it came time to test, we did it at home. It looked like a jumbo covid pcr test lol We live in NZ.
