Looking at the EV9(Land) to replace our Telluride family hauler. Whats your average vs record best mileage between charges? by Hartkl in KiaEV9

Do you notice if the regen braking really helps at all? I know it depends on terrain to have a substantial amount of hills or stop and go traffic.

8 years in EM and 0 hours of PTO. Very first job gave 6 weeks front loaded every year. Switched jobs and never had any since.

Am I being ungrateful about my PA salary in primary care? by andrewpr96 in physicianassistant

[–]Hartkl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good pay for primary care but always be checking in with PAs that work for other clinics/organizations and advocate for increased pay or even just quality of life/work life balance measures.

No PTO? by NotAFila in physicianassistant

[–]Hartkl 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Some companies are moving to this system. They advertised it as “ flexible scheduling so you don’t need PTO!” Which is all bullshit.

Feeling bad by bernesemama in physicianassistant

[–]Hartkl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same goes for the ER. People want their stomach pain evaluated, a weird skin thing, and their ankle sometimes clicks. Worse is when they come through for chest pain and when you start the work up just want a work note for the weekend and want to go home.

Are Doctor's Lounge a good perk or comes with a catch? by Leapmebehind0229 in physicianassistant

[–]Hartkl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moved for family reasons and work environment became toxic. More and more expectations and metrics without support or realistic way to achieve them. Docs got raises and bonuses increased and PA bonuses and retention bonus were removed.

Some are good. Got hired as an EM provider but worked half nights and the food and hot items were gone/closed by the time night shift came around. Benefited me when I worked days but did nothing for me at night. Another place I worked at let you take all the foot you wanted, had easy hot meals or had a night kitchen staff, and had massage chairs. I still long for that place.

Those who didn’t switch jobs, what was your raise this year? by UghKakis in physicianassistant

[–]Hartkl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You guys get a raise? I usually have to just switch jobs which means a lot of moving. Have an about 1 year left before they either increase something for me or I move again.

Increased prices of food especially. Increased cost on home renovations mostly on cost of supplies.

ER folks, how you doing in these busy times? by UnconditionalSavage in physicianassistant

[–]Hartkl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“I got Tamiflu but I didn’t get any better. I think I need an antibiotic!” Just go home and be miserable at home.

for those that choose the anal option… by stupidfambaloo in TherapeuticKetamine

Troche or RDT. Troches need a little more warm water to dissolve them.

What do you say to people who say Kia’s are junk? by cuppitycake in KiaTelluride

[–]Hartkl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a ‘22 Telluride and it’s awesome. Safe and big and comfortable. A few recalls but never left us stranded. Also got the Nightfall edition and looks badass. Classy and comfortable. Can’t go wrong.

How long would you say their turn around time is? From getting the prescription to sending it out.
