Infuriating day of the week layout

  The real kicker is escitalopram is used to treat obsessive compulsive disorders.

    It’s a tool to assess how well the medication is working. If the patient complains, bump up the dose.

    It’s just Lexapro

    source

    • MutantTailThing@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      And lexapro is just a brand name for escitalopram

    what if my week start on Monday?

    Also there’s one day missing because you don’t count the first Monday or something, I don’t remember

      Then you are incorrect, indexes start at 0

      Look, the important thing is that if you’re working out every other day, you aren’t overdoing it by going 4-5 days a week.

    It was probably meant to be a circle and then they had to move the Thu because of the text

  • testaccount789@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Somehow I thought of the same thing (if no crossing lines was the point), except I started on Monday.

  • AyuTsukasa@lemmy.zip ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I still don’t like it! 😅

    source
• hperrin@lemmy.ca ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  No, I can see why they did it that way. It’s because they hate you.

  source
• Obituarykidney@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  Maybe it’s to force you to read it so you’re paying attention

  source

  • rmrf@lemmy.ml ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    This is what I’m thinking, it actually takes your attention and, if you forgot a day, likely prevents you from accidentally taking 2 throughout the next

• Epzillon@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  I mean, it just goes in a circle but thursday is centered because the text had to be visible, really feels like the last effort job tho

  source

  • SpraynardKruger@lemmy.zip ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    But the text could go in the center easily, without moving the pill there.

      This would be asymmetrical. Which doesn’t seem like a big issue, but if you have a big truck full of those it might tip over the side.

  The smudgy camera infuriates me more, though

  source

  • SpraynardKruger@lemmy.zip ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    My roommate got a top-of-the-line iPhone a while back. The choice to go with the most expensive iPhone was specifically so he could also use it as a camera.

    Pretty much every time I see him send or post a picture, it has the smudgy sheen, and pretty much every time, I tell him to clean his damn camera lenses. I think the camera roll in my Galaxy S21+ has, on average, better looking and more detailed photos than the ones on his phone. Not because the camera is better, but because I usually wipe the camera lenses before taking a picture.

  Is it possible the doses for the top 4 days are the same and then the other three are different and it’s easier for the machine to fill them that way so it’s just labeling?

  source
• whaleross@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  Start on Thursdays for an outward spiral or Friday for an inward

  source
• ViatorOmnium@piefed.social ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  7 is not divisible by 2, and the package designer wouldn’t settle for anything non symmetrical, so they took the playing card layout.

  source

  • Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Sunday Saturday Monday Friday Tuesday Thursday Wednesday

    source
  • Viceversa@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    You can use the same pattern but intuitive order though:

    Monday Tuesday
    Wednesday Thursday
    Friday
    Saturday Sunday

    source

    • ViatorOmnium@piefed.social ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      I personally would put the one in the middle on top PR bottom, like

        *
      *  *
      *  *
      *  *

• JelleWho@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  Maybe there week started on a Sunday instead of a Monday. It makes it a BIT more logical

  source
• NickwithaC@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  The longer I look at it the worse it gets!

• frunch@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  The packaging printer was probably running their annual “print it out of order intentionally sale” where customers can receive up to 15% off new packaging-print packages.

  source
• atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  If they are all the same then does it even matter what day of the week each pill is taken?

  source

  • some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Yes… for some it is difficult to remember whether medication for the day has already been taken.

    source

    • dan@upvote.au ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      The way I solved this is by flipping the medicine container upside down after I take it, then flip it back around when I get up in the morning.

      Here is one.

      I take only one pill a day, but still use a pill organizer for this reason

      source
  • Ava@piefed.blahaj.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    It’s a way of helping people easily identify and verify whether or not they’ve taken the pill for the day. “Did I remember to take my medication this morning? Oh right, today is Tuesday. Must not have.”

• uhmbah@lemmy.ca ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  Uhm, it’s clockwise. Duh.
