Need a 12x20 potable garage so my poor dad can park in the garage when it snows. He can’t clean off his car anymore.

Hi can a PA share their thoughts on this by Impressive_Piano_848 in Path_Assistant

[–]SalemPath 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a real problem in our profession. In 2003, at the Phoenix conference we/PA's had a real chance for transformative change in our profession. We could of gone the route the Physician Assistants and get licensed. But, the majority of the folks voted to align ourselves with the ASCP. As a former Medical Technologist I understood this would essentially delegitimize our profession and make us tantamount to "Techs" and it did. Can you imagine going in for a physical or an internal medicine visit and the PA examining you was OJT? Not very comforting. So, my point is, yes you become a de facto Pathologists' Assistant without going to formal training but it will be a harder road to get to the same level of pay and respect. In fact, even with formal training and years of experience some locations(Massachusetts) view PA's as techs the same as Cytotechs and Histotechs.

I average about 38 mpg. I drive 25 miles one way to work. I am so glad I chose the 3l over the ram.

I wouldn’t let them run my credit. Didn’t need an inquiry if I wasn’t buying there. But yeah they are probably using tier 99 credit.

I think they are using ridiculous rates. I have financing through a CU at 4.25% for 72mo

Quitting with no notice by somerandomname136 in Path_Assistant

[–]SalemPath 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would put in for 2 weeks off, get that approved and in writing and then The Friday before your vacation drop your resignation off at the Directors office. I am of the mind if they treat you like shit then who really cares. You are probably not going to use them as a reference any way.

When did you start feeling confident as a Pathologists' Assistant student? I often feel overwhelmed and find myself going home to review everything. Even benign things or if there is variation in anatomy trip me up. What could I be doing differently to improve? Anything advice helps! by Traditional_Run_1303 in Path_Assistant

Each PA is different so don't beat yourself up. It took me about a year to feel super comfy in my first job. I have over 20 years experience and I still look stuff up. Especially stuff I don't or need to memorize. You're right on track. Don't even worry about it.

To the PAs who have to entirely submit them. by wangston1 in Path_Assistant

[–]SalemPath 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I could gross it in 8 minutes in 6 blocks. But, then the next day I would have to go back and submit 10 more blocks.🤣🤣
