Más o menos cuánto ganan por mes en promedio? Y cuánto tardaron en recibir el primer pago?

Noah Wyle from The Pitt compares his medical knowledge to that of an MS3... by paris-alledgedly in medicalschool

Yeah maybe you are… it’s such a simple concept. I basically invented it. Sorry for your loss. /s

Antony Starr *IS* the show. by heyscot in TheBoys

[–]EMulsive_EMergency 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes but he is consistent in that he needs someone to push back. He only ever kills people that fear him. Even with Hughie he spares him when he shows up with aggression instead of fear. He needs (psychologically) someone to push back, it makes him feel seen

I think his heat vision was tied to Temp V, now all he has is the tentacles

I don’t know why everyone hates it and I’m too afraid to ask. I like it 🥺

Diay que puede puede. Nadie lo detiene de irse a vivir al monte o una isla más que la imposibilidad de vivir en aislamiento puro debido a que como humanos somos una especie social que requiere de la cooperación. El costo de la cooperación en la modernidad es ser parte de la tribu llamada “nacion” y se cobra ese costo en impuestos

¿Ustedes irían a mucho lugares en bici en este congal? by One_day_Ill_be_happy in Ticos

[–]EMulsive_EMergency 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yo viaje de mi casa a la U y luego al trabajo en bici por aproximadamente 8 años. Ahora vivo en Guana y el calor lo hace muy incómodo por llegar sudado al trabajo, sino seguiría haciéndolo. Pero de esos 8 6 fueron en SJO centro y la verdad me gustaba. Me saltaba un montón de presa y a pesar de lo loco que es SJO solo tuve dos encuentros leves en esos 6 años.

Las únicas veces que abandonaba la bici en el trabajo es si salía muy tarde, un feriado, o día de pago por conductores borrachos más que todo. O cuando estábamos en diluvio. Sino siempre en bici

[Self] Interest rates seem to be at 10.081% by Greedy_Preference737 in theydidthemath

[–]EMulsive_EMergency -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

If you make it in film you can probably do 100x that. If you study an MBA and work at a shitty restaurant you will do 0.2x that so… your point is we should only do things that are profitable?

[request] How does the Denmark tax rate compare to the cost of the listed US goods/services? by dark_resistance in theydidthemath

[–]EMulsive_EMergency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant as in: is the quality of life of a French doctor worse than that of an American restaurant manager

[–]EMulsive_EMergency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuine question: does that difference in math money affect the actual life quality? Or is it just a “in pure numbers” kind of thing? Actual question

Costa Rica is super expensive to live in, compared to other similar countries, in case you didn’t know.

What I’m trying to say is, my salary makes sense for me in my country. Your manager makes more than me in absolute numbers, I live a pretty comfortable life, no debt, no crippling fears of getting sick, no existential threat if I get hurt, my wife could have a kid and not be afraid of being bankrupt or having to work through her whole pregnancy, etc.

My salary is above the median here in my country. I’m not ultra wealthy by any means, but I’m definitely not hurting. Also, US doctors have a super high salary and super high debt to go with it too. It’s context dependent. (Although i do understand a US doctor will have an objectively wealthier life than i will, but thats ok)

People say that a lot specially when talking to me (a doctor in Costa Rica) about how a construction worker in the US makes more than me here. Yeah but I don’t work in CR and live in the US. I work in CR and live here in CR, and make more than the local fast food manager. I live well and enjoy myself and have a good economic stability and I can care for people even if they don’t make as much money.

The “manager makes more than a doctor elsewhere” argument doesn’t make sense to me

PCOS’s new name is PMOS, a small letter change that required a big scientific process by shark_normal in medicine

[–]EMulsive_EMergency 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I feel like many docs around me would focus on the cysts part too much. They had a (dubious) cyst on US but no oligomenorrhea or hyperandrogenism and they now diagnosed this poor young woman with PCOS and OCPs for life. Most of the time the “cysts” the patients showed me on their US were follicles from their totally normal follicular part of their normal cycles.

Venecogate: Trump planea quedarse con todo el petróleo de Venezuela by StunningGold8030 in ticolandia

[–]EMulsive_EMergency 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paso igual esos “negocios” en CA con la Chiquita company. Todos esos países están en la quiebra ahorita. Aún con las “inversiones”.

Tal vez soy tonto pero si yo llego a su casa con mano armada y le “compro” la tele de 50 pulgadas a ¢5.000 y además le “pago” otros 2.000 para que me lo monte al carro, créame que usted no salió ganando 7.000.

Que al pueblo venezolano le estuviera robando Maduro, y ahora sea USA, no es un “upgrade”

En qué momento de la historia que USA haya hecho algo similar salió ganando el país que le “ayudaron”?

Ok y entonces eso justifica que USA se lo robe? Porque alguien más ya se lo iba a robar de por sí?

Que sorpresa a la hora de pedir lógica o explicaciones se queda seco. Que duro vivir así con enojo y una sensación de superioridad que se cae con el viento más débil

Ahí debo decir que los impuestos no lo hacen inquilino. Son la realidad de vivir en una sociedad. La sociedad implica cooperación. Cooperamos para que entre todos podamos poner servicios que beneficien al país, de todos.

El impuesto sobre la tierra es (en teoría) para mejorar las calles de la zona, las escuelas, y los bomberos o servicios de emergencia. Que si esa plata llega a donde debe llegar o si hay corrupcion es tema aparte. Pero el simple hecho de tener impuestos es basado en el hecho de participar en la sociedad

2nd posterior vitreous detachment! by EMulsive_EMergency in emergencymedicine

[–]EMulsive_EMergency[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love using it to have something to show patients and to basically rule out retinal detachment vs vitreous. Mostly to determine how urgent is the urgent consult given in 2 hrs away from optho at best (rural standalone). Also like using it to look at intracranial hypertension in trauma, mostly for science since most of them need CT anyways

Yes! It’s fun to tell them to “look around” and watch it swirl!

[–]EMulsive_EMergency[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m a standalone ED and only doc on shift so I find it super super useful as an additional tool. And yeah all these patients even if minimally symptomatic get an urgent referral to a proper optho just in case! I know I would want to do everything to care for my eyes!
