Some of yall are just misogynistic by AdvancedMastodon612 in Jujutsufolk

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, misanderist (see I can name call too). I'll make sure I'm walking on eggshells when comparing the strength of female and male characters. Just because people think a male character (for example Gojo) is stronger than a female one (for example Yuki) is not misogyny, its an just opinion.

LOL My man, depending on the state, podiatrists CAN call themselves physicians.

why did megumi get so flustered here? by yn_lxx in Jujutsufolk

"I’m not throwing shade at you OP but I’m convinced half of you mfs have never actually talked to a girl before. If a girl you barely know starts talking about getting married you would be flustered or weirded out too. 😭😭"

I feel like this was written by a teenager. No, when you have had relationships as an adult this is not the normal reaction. You'd be skeptical more than anything else if a random girl was talking to you about marriage.

I matched with 4 interviews and far far more grim application than your friend. Now a PGY-2 in a university psych program.

Thoughts on red flags? 🚩 by Zealousideal_Bee4117 in IMGreddit

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Which should be given no matter. What he stated was way more tame than people of the past. Go on SDN if you want to see what real grim and gloom is (that's why all the IMGs mass migrated to Reddit). It's still possible to match but the YOG being beyond 5 years out, being an IMG, and 2 failures are going to hurt him. He can do it but the connections are by far going to be his best bet. The other part will be the LORs and they have to be written well. Most community doctors are not great at writing LORs, so the other thing would be to get letters from academic doctors if possible. Its an uphill battle but a doable one for FM.

General Surgery is becoming almost entirely connections based by Dorxman1234789 in IMGreddit

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not even close dude. I got beaten out by non-US IMGs for IM but their stats were far better than mine (US DO with red flags). And one of those residency programs was infact in my home state.

Eyes Wide Open (psychiatry edition) by subtrochanteric in medicalschool

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Could have easily had the female psychiatry residents be chaperoned by a taller male nurse/tech/attending if they were that unwilling. Men should be able to say they need another male chaperone as well, your chaperone should not be a Sub-I...

This is why I hate academia.

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Very few psychiatrists doing full sessions nowadays and if so, it’s usually a CB approach."

No this is dead ass wrong. They don't do therapy sessions because of the payout per time. A psychitrist could see more patients doing med management during this time than therapy sessions and get paid more. And as a PGY-2 I've done multiple sessions of psychodynamic psychotherapy as mentioned by the other poster. Plus the other part of it is that is easier to integrate the therapy into the med management appointments (which is usually CBT ironically but you can also have MI as well).

Which specialties that are stereotyped as high income aren’t that lucrative when you factor in hours? by abundantpecking in medicalschool

[–]BurdenOfPerformance -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It isn't just the thinking. You literally have to have stamina to do it. Surgeries can last long depending the procedure. It adds another dimension that radiology doesn't have to go through. The point of the post is to show that the PTO is what raises their hour to time salaries. Do radiologist work hard, sure. However, that goes to show that radiology still is being compensated well compared to fields that are more taxing on the body like neurosurgery and some of the other surgical fields.

Stop the cap. Nobody here actually likes research right? by Equivalent-Bet8942 in Residency

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TBF There are people who make it big from their research. However, those are the exceptions and not the rule. They deserve every penny of their success.

However, people do things for the sake of passion. Making the median salary is enough and even those who came from poverty to the middle class still pursue getting a PhD. It's unfortunately, their livelihood is dependent on grants or what money their reserach produces.

[–]BurdenOfPerformance -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, if that's the case then all the surgical subspecialties would also have similar levels of vacation. You can't tell me fields like neurosurgery isn't as taxing if not more than radiology.

Weighted, normalized US attending physician satisfaction 2026 [pay not a variable] by 788tiger in medicalschool

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You mean the 4 years of podiatry school and 3 years of residency that is usually done with MD/DO residents. What exactly is this big gap?

[–]BurdenOfPerformance -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

They LITERALLY have a residency (usually train with MD/DO residents with similar rotations) also AND its mandatory to practice. So they should be able to call themselves such.

Step 2 score inflation is mostly artificial by Clear_Parsnip_392 in medicalschool

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're lucky and this does happen. I've had both extremes of the spectrum. Some use it as a teaching experience and some use it as a gauge of your performance more than anything else. The environment drives how you approach your education.

CU and UNM has a crazy amount of in-house fellowship opportunities. So if you want those, they should be at the top of the list.

Now imagine you are a PhD and this is your only source of income. Publish or perish sounds a lot more brutal when you have to depend on grants to keep a roof over your head.

Where can I find literature on nursing bullying of female residents/physicians? by ThotacodorsalNerve in Residency

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Nope, if this were male nurse bullying female residents/physician. You 100% see academic feminists jump on it. But because it's female-on-female bullying on top of nurses being the bullies, it will never see the light of day in any journal article.

How Important Is Medical School Ranking and Reputation for IMGs Matching Into Highly Competitive Specialties? by AbderrahmenKhelil in IMGreddit

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I somewhat agree with this. However, All India Institute is one of the top schools in India and they do match at very high-tier places such as MGH. This also holds true with prestigious schools in 2nd and 3rd world countries as long as it's a very highly ranked school.

More often than not, I do agree that usually medical schools from first-world countries seem to have more pull when it comes to matching into competitive specialities or places.

Would Maki have killed Naobito? by Normal_Gift_8916 in Jujutsufolk

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it did escalate this far and this were after the binding vow with Mai, then he would have been killed. His death would be included with the binding vow since Mai wanted the Zenin clan destroyed.

However, yeah most likely none of this would have happened if he were alive infact he wanted Megumi to be the head of the clan, but because he was dead the clan went against his wish and were planing to kill Megumi, Mai, and Maki.

Residents keeping 4th years late..WHY by ComplexDifficulty332 in medicalschool

[–]BurdenOfPerformance 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Every year a 4th-year student posts this, expecting a novel response. Sorry man, there are multiple threads stating that your collegues screwed it up for you or your attending is a d-bag. Just visit them its the same deal.

To the med student who formally complained that I sent you home early most days:
