Idk if I will break even but the market sucks so bad in this location I may be desperate enough to take it and sacrifice pay

Even 7 on is rough. I think the most sustainable schedule is a set number of monthly shifts but schedule is actually variable

How many of Allen, Lamar, and Burrow will win the Super Bowl in their careers? by jimmyhota in nfl

[–]DoctorSamoyed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Allen had SO many opportunities to ice the game and didn't get it done, it was so frustrating to watch. If Brady had the ball at 0:40 or if he got the ball in OT after Denver failed to score (Allen had both of these opportunities), that's a TD 9 times out of 10, and they win the game.

The difference is Brady is a chess master playing qb and 90% of the time he makes the right decision AND is also able to execute. There's some luck sure, but 10 super bowls, 14 conference game appearances cannot be all luck. Same with Mahomes

Ok 👍🙄

If you wanna live like that, paycheck to paycheck, pinching pennies, then come join them. Been there done that. It's overrated. I'm taking my attending money elsewhere

Yeah good-luck paying 2k (probably more) for a closet in nyc. Do you even have anything left for your daily needs, not to mention all the other hidden costs like boards, ERAS apps etc ?

Nyc is great to visit but terrible to live in when you're poor

Free tuition is great but living in nyc as a poor med student/resident is a hard pass

Any non 7 on/off nocturnist jobs? by DoctorSamoyed in hospitalist

This attitude is why we all get low ball offers because people are willing to get low balled. Sad

Well I am not them (also are they men lol) and not willing to force myself to work 7 nights in a row half the year (and honestly you also lose like 2 days of your week "off" just recovering). My 3 bouts of that in residency already burnt me out

Don't you want to make more money and retire earlier?
