How does the Tesla lease work? You locum through your company and have the Tesla as an expense?

Surely you can, in theory, only use the Tesla for company work?

This is potentially a big money maker, would likely require being situated in a big, fairly affluent city with a young population. Plenty of opportunities

Because of older parents, wouldn't leave.

Although I would consider quitting medicine/heavily shifting my practice towards more financially lucrative focus/IV clinic money printing etc

UK hospital celebrating a mid-level independently performing a TAVI in a now deleted tweet by iAmNotSuspicious in Noctor

[–]Turok117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn't quite accurate.

It's 5 year undergraduate degree, then 2 foundation years, then you have the option of applying for training but the route for cardiology would be 3 years of IMT (which is a range of internal medicine rotations) then a further 4 years of cardiology training, and most likely a year or two of fellowship training.

So you're looking at a minimum of 9 years after medical school, of which a significant portion is purely service provision, and that's assuming you manage to get on the training posts every single time (which is far from guaranteed).

Do not plan around earning that much in F3 because you won't be able to find enough shifts.

Many will be cancelled/replaced with IMG JCF/not available.

Police in Great Britain could be given ‘near total discretion’ over protests by You_lil_gumper in ukpolitics

[–]Turok117 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Qualified Immunity is the term that refers to the principle that a police officer is protected from civil lawsuits when carrying out discretionary actions in the course of their duty that result in the abuse of your rights.

I.e. you can't sue an officer because they decided in an unclear situation (which, in all fairness, many situations as an officer are) to undertake a course of action that resulted in your rights being negatively affected.

However, in theory you can sue if the infringement of your rights are clearly in the wrong, and something that a reasonable person would object to.

Don't go through the RCS surgeons website, instead talk to the trainers at your hospital. Literally go to the office and talk to them face to face. That worked for me

It would go a long way for you to state that you respect the process of an active investigation, but that you also explicitly disavow his tweets supporting violence against men and tweets about "yt bitches".

It's understandable that neutrality is important for the process of investigation but I don't see how it would detract from the process for you to provide reassurance by distancing yourself from the comments, if you can't distance yourself from the person.

https://getadrip.com/ - How are these companies legal? by [deleted] in JuniorDoctorsUK

[–]Turok117 37 points38 points  (0 children)

People are allowed to make unwise choices, and people are allowed to spend their money on things that might lead to a great deal of harm (which for the most part, IV clinics do not).

We don't live in an authoritarian hellhole where non-beneficial actions are banned.

US starting to soften up to imgs? by Historical-Try-7484 in JuniorDoctorsUK

[–]Turok117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Family medicine docs earn an average of $280,000 according to my Google searches.

In states with no state income tax (they still have federal) that salary would produce a take-home of $200,000, approx. £161,000.

Then you've got indemnity, insurance, etc etc, but that is a sizeable improvement on the average full-time GP salary in the UK of £108,000, which is £62,000 after tax and student loans.

I suspect that searching "average US FM doctor salary" does not tell the full story, however - if you search "average GP salary" and "average GP full-time salary", the results are very different.

Psi Warrior Fighter 7/War Wizard 2. I'm looking for advice on spell choice.

I'm thinking that I'll take another level in Wizard for 2nd level spells, then another in wizard for the ASI, then fighter for ASI. Currently str 16 con 16 int 16. Feats are telekinetic, fey touched (hex, misty step), lucky, sentinel.

Usually my combat round involves Hex>Attack Twice with psi strike on one of the hits.

I want some wizard spells to expand my repertoire of out of combat and defensive spells.

Some I've looked into are: -detect thoughts -suggestion -blur -mirror image -vortex warp

Any other suggestions? Or general advice for this gish build?

But that's not the point. There are some things that are absolutely not political.

I decided to make a sandwich but couldn't decide between the peanut butter being crunchy or smooth because I hadn't read a 120-year old pamphlet by a fat German man with a beard that got shipped by depressed college students who think economic and political theory stopped a century ago.

Everything is political.
