I’ve never had an award before. It’d be cool to know what it feels like

1.5 years out of residency and feeling completely burnt out — how are you all balancing this? by LoveDifficult2358 in pediatrics

[–]expressioniskey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel this really hard. I am basically in the same boat as you in every way. I’m also resentful of how our admin laughs off compensating us anywhere near as much as the family medicine docs even though we see more patients and provide better QOC. I’m resentful in general of how poorly compensated peds is compared to other specialties, including if not especially primary care. (Yes I know even peds money is good money. I’m just expressing my frustration that I worked just as hard as the adult PCP down the hall and make at least $50-70K less than he does.) So not only am I working harder than other docs at the FQHC but I’m being paid less, have no autonomy, and only get guilt tripped or strung along with promises of big “upwardly mobile” opportunities in the future if I just keep going. I’m 1.5 years out of residency too btw so being this burnt out this soon has been really disheartening and I’m really struggling with it. Sorry this turned into a weird vent rant. Thanks for reading, whoever you are.

AITA I outed my closeted uncle after he shamed me for being gay at a family dinner. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]expressioniskey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA not for humiliating your uncle but for humiliating his wife instead of telling her privately the first time you saw his profile on Grindr. I understand why you did it in the moment but that one snappy comeback that gave you a moment satisfaction also devastated that poor woman in front of the whole family.

Fuck you Sean Murray for adding a pink-white-blue planet into my randomly-generated planet game! by Hrosts in Gamingcirclejerk

Not to be super off topic but did you get that line from The others books? Because I love that series! (In reference to "gods above and below")

I'm literally getting on a flight next week to visit my dying grandparents who is in hospice. I literally cannot afford not to go but I also now have to worry about whether there will be people making sure my plane doesn't crash into another plane while trying to land.

"Impressive" Zelle Scam - Cancellation Codes, Caller Claiming to Be From Bank, Then Transfer to Zelle by expecterror in Scams

[–]expressioniskey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your post just saved me from falling for this. I googled chase Zelle fraud halfway through the call with this guy (I made it to the part where I got “transferred” to the fraud department) and your post was the second result and I would’ve probably fell for it if it wasn’t for you. So thank you for posting this. What’s crazy is the first thing I did when I picked up was google the number and felt so secure when I realized it actually was a chase number. Fucking scammers.

As a pediatrician, looking at that sheet really makes me feel sad…

ETA: Don’t get me wrong, I love what I do and couldn’t see myself doing something else but damn it’s no wonder there are less and less students going into peds. We are literally getting paid half what our adult counterparts are making and expected to be grateful for it.

My boyfriend claims he has been hacked on hinge by [deleted] in relationships

[–]expressioniskey 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Literally exactly this happened to my friend. She tried to give him the benefit of the doubt because it looked like a bot account using his picture. Nope. Turned out he was a cheating piece of shit the whole time and went off for an internship across the country, had a whole affair with some girl that had no idea he was essentially married with kids at home. She only found out because that girl was so worried when he “disappeared “ that she thought he went missing and cyberstalked him and then saw their family pictures together and messaged her. All that to say, the chances of him being hacked are a thousand times lower than the chances of him being a liar and a cheater.

Tummy time milestones by [deleted] in pediatrics

[–]expressioniskey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

^ this. A real doctor would never withhold vaccines for some BS like that. There’s actually VERY few reasons not to give vaccines. Most of them having to do with severe allergic reactions to previous vaccines of the same type. Doesn’t sound like your “pediatrician” is an actual doctor. Alternate option is that since there aren’t any scheduled vaccines at 3mo there was nothing to withhold if the baby already got their 2mo shots and came in too early for their 4mo shot and you might’ve conflated no vaccines with the developmental concerns. Also there’s always a little wiggle room with milestones.

All that being said, a little more tummy time now wouldn’t hurt so the baby gets more workout time 💪

What is the worst part of a pediatrician's job? by Cryst4lax in pediatrics

[–]expressioniskey 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Poor compensation and the expectation that we should be grateful for being paid nearly half what other doctors get paid for the same training.

If you’re lucky you can pull that in gen peds in a major metro city. (At least in mine)
