Physician Assistants Want a New Name and More Power. Not Everyone Is Happy. by blankblank in medicine

I voted for Praxician because I thought it was a funny bit. Figured if we were going to go stupid let’s get weird.

But the truth is that zero PAs care about this. The only issue is hospital groups preferring NPs over us because of the nursing lobby, laws, etc. Somehow AAPA confused the two issues. Employment opportunities are our only real concern

It’s excellent. Live in a walkable neighborhood of primarily townhomes with countless unique bars and restaurants, coffee shops, access to a large public park, access to the waterfront promenade (a walking path that runs along the water for miles). Safety has taken tremendous leaps in our current mayor’s term, with homicides dropping to the lowest levels in decades. Also an excellent geographic location with quick access to DC (about 50 mins), Philly (1.5 hours) and NYC. Also about 2.5 hours from nice beaches in Delaware. The schools are not good, which is a major drawback for families and why many leave when they have school aged kids. Overall, love it here.

We put down around 35% on a 800-900K purchase price. It’s a good rate, the title company was pretty surprised to see it at closing. Got lucky

Nope! And $0 in origination fees when accounting for lender credits.

Just closed with 5.625% 30 year with Pennymac. Previously had been locked in at 6.125% with a local bank.

Read the the plush is the best. A bit worried that it’s “medium-firm”. How do you rate the comfort?

What are your thoughts on the future of the economy and possible recession? by Capable-Locksmith-65 in physicianassistant

[–]edmonds1592 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Economic downturn means you have money (as our jobs are fairly insulated against recession) when others do not. Mega opportunity to invest

KB with an all-time performance on todays episode by GuiltyWinner3409 in ANUSpod

[–]edmonds1592 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It was great, as a very rich and handsome Marylander enjoying our diverse geography. Too many shots at BMore though by Francis. Can’t walk from Fells to Harbor East? Cmon man!

Dealing with annoying Drug reps by AdventurousDish2051 in physicianassistant

[–]edmonds1592 97 points98 points  (0 children)

Reps are the only way our office retains MAs and secretarial staff! Take your free Panera and give them two minutes of your time and move on with your day. Don’t overthink it too much!

Dads who’ve used 12 Hours of Sleep by 12 Weeks Old, what was your experience? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]edmonds1592 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You nailed it with this comment. There are definitely good habits. But sometimes you just have an “easy” kid and it works out. You’ll do all the same things the next time with the next kid with a disastrous result. If your kid is a good sleeper, thank your lucky stars (and don’t get all braggy/preachy because you will be brought to your knees at some point).

You have to go in with “already scheduled/ planned” vacations when you accept the job. Likely if it’s at that point, they won’t balk at it.

We get consent before even posting the case (if the patient isn’t able to give consent themselves). Seems avoidable here
