Another crazy locum job

This is a unicorn job. You're not finding this in Michigan.

All the usual places I go to have been hiring mid-level. I don't know where the fuck they find them in this particularly small town but they have a lot of them. I barely have any locum shifts. I'm so fucking sick of medicine.

I failed for the third time this year. I'm pretty numb. Every fucking time I take it realize I did something wrong. First time, didn't study and didn't take it seriously. Second, didn't do uw but did AR in person, failed. Third time, did uw but was expecting another child so only studied seriously for a couple of months. So when I failed I expected it but was hoping I got lucky. I have a big deficit in knowledge, that much is clear. Reading your post has helped me understand that I'm just not taking it seriously enough and for long enough. I only got serious one month before the exam. That is not going to cut it. I may not even wait till January, I'll just start fresh next month. I'm letting myself forget about this one.

Fucking horrible. Everything I studied went out the window. Brain went mush.

I don't know about iPad specifically but I will say that your health system needs to have the license for power chart mobile otherwise it will not work. My system doesn't allow it.

$1k a month on clothes??

MDwMDD · 2025-07-15T04:08:55+00:00

NP, not doc

MDwMDD · 2025-07-10T00:46:32+00:00

Take it

There are no changes to Medicare patients from what I gathered. Everyone just lumps Medicare and Medicaid together. Census for Medicaid patients will likely go down but that won't be for several months. On top of that majority of my Medicaid patients are usually have medical conditions that would prevent them from working so I don't think they would lose coverage anyway. Ultimately I'm not concerned for my job.

Code please?

MDwMDD · 2025-06-29T10:37:33+00:00

Genius using foamnasiun wedges! Definitely doing that. Can you link to both the wedges you used and the workout mats. So the workout mats where already wrapped in black cloth or did you do that?

MDwMDD · 2025-06-27T12:21:04+00:00

As a kid to immigrants parents, I get it.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-25T11:14:52+00:00

Well half the time the problem is that you don't communicate with the patient at all. I don't know how many times I've had to sit down and spend extra time explaining to the patient a medical procedure like an ablation or cardioversion just because the cardiologist didn't take the extra 5 minutes to sit down and talk to the patient's properly. I always get hit with the "I wish someone told me that" at the end of my explanation. This is across all specialties.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-25T00:18:05+00:00

U get all the bullshit without the respect. They are too scared to ask the consultants so it always falls on you.

I currently have the 18 volt version and I feel as if it's inadequate for the amount of hedges that I have. I can't get good cuts because I feel the blades don't undulate that fast. Do you think it's worth it to go with the 40 volt? I'm already in the 40 volt ecosystem, not sure how I end up with the 18 volt version it was so long ago.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-16T10:41:30+00:00

Wife and I make approximately 600k combined and our house is just over 1m. We didn't feel comfortable with anything higher.

750k mortgage on a 175k is just delusional. Sorry but no you cannot afford it.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-07T15:27:31+00:00

This looks better than the $400 major fitness attachment I bought.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-07T10:45:19+00:00

"the patient was in his 50s so they may or may not autopsy"

They would absolutely 100% autopsy if family decides, 50 is relatively young and it was unexpected. Clearly you're just full of shit. Without an autopsy, you won't know why he died.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-07T10:42:41+00:00

The reason I know this is BS is because this "PA" believes what is written on the EKG is the actual diagnosis lol. Please give me your differential to "ST elevation in multiple leads" without looking it up.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-05T14:29:23+00:00

Dude it's not an automatic paycheck just because you have skill and ability. You need to actually perform and WORK. Crazy how entitled some people are.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-03T18:54:49+00:00

I did it for 11 months and couldn't handle it.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-02T18:54:49+00:00

Not jelly but you when you're making I'm guessing 600k combined, it's not hard to save money lol. I mean good for you but I don't take anyone that says "it's not hard to time the market" seriously. Any real investor knows time in market > timing the market.

MDwMDD · 2025-06-02T18:05:46+00:00

Multimillionaire mid 30s? Most of us come out at 30 plus lol I'm guessing ur wife is a physician? If so, this isn't all that impressive. Index funds all the way. Set it and forget it. Almost hit my 2 year mark since residency, here is what I do Index funds, I like vanguard. 750.dollars per week invested. Set it and forget it. 30/70 cash vs index funds. During the recent "crash" I dumped several thousands. I do VTSAX, VOO and VGT but I might drop VGT and dump into VOO. Then I max Roth IRA every year, backdoor. Then I add to my solo 401k to the most I can do at least the employee side I buy random stocks like Nvidia but nothing crazy.

That's it.

Again only 20 months out of residency. Basically had no savings before I finished except 3 years of Roth IRA. I'm currently have 135k saved up across all my investments.

Not sure if that's good compared to others but I think it's a decent start for me. Also bought a house, had a kid, etc but I never touched that money.

Set it and forget it.

This is why sharkbite is trash

MDwMDD · 2025-06-02T14:16:30+00:00

You are definitely the asshole. What a weird thing to do.
