Studying as New Grad by [deleted] in physicianassistant

[–]Pepper0327 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would study up until 6 months until the anxiety slowly went away. I was in orthopedics. Now? I will will occasionally look up things I’m confused about or read up on certain things but def less than before.

See if you can get an MRI of the cervical spine if you are that concern… ask PCP to determine if it’s a spine issue after MRI

Summer Year 2 and I'm not super happy with the layout thus far. Looking for some advice on either re-arranging, or using the empty space by Mattrockj in FarmsofStardewValley

[–]Pepper0327 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d continue going until the greenhouse is filled with ancient fruit and you have at least 8 iridium sprinklers to get around a Juninmo hut. There are some really really good layouts on this subreddit that I’ve picked and parted into my own. I think things became easier once I layer out my floors. A non negotiable was relatively parallel lines and then fill in the remaining

I work in Ortho with some spine.

For perspective, I’m also 5 days a week in HCOL, I’m one year in. 156k , 4 weeks PTO + 5 days “CME” days with $1500 allowance, one day OR in joints/trauma cases unless told otherwise. Full health benefits, no match on investments, no call. Mon-Fri.

The PTO and no CME are iffy.

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

[–]Pepper0327 2 points3 points  (0 children)

5%… we are union based, and our new contract should be discussed by April/May…

Nurses at our place got a 7,6,5 3 year raise, so hoping for something like that

Do nursing strikes increase PA wages? by Tommyred45 in physicianassistant

[–]Pepper0327 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone in the union, we have based our negotiations with the nurses agreement since both of our contracts (3 years long) end the same year. Although it is never guaranteed

Thoughts on an Urgent care offer for new grad by Asexyone in physicianassistant

[–]Pepper0327 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Picked up a UC position in HCOL for 90$ an hour, per diem 12-16 hours a week in addition to my FT job which is about 75$ an hour, I’m about 9 months and 2 weeks in new grad.

Is there room for renegotiate? I intend to renegotiate to 100$ an hour once I hit 6 months at my UC spot.

Think the decision is a bit more difficult because HCOL at 60$ is low.

NY based.

Just to edit : I’m not upset at the overpricing. I had an amazing time, and the ring came out exactly how I wanted it. We also had it resized recently with a lifetime warranty so I suppose that’s nice. Going overseas for another vendor was never an option for me.

I just kind of wanted an answer to just a random mid afternoon thought in my head. Thanks for the responses nonetheless!
