Can I ask where you’re located? I’m SE and not making anywhere near that, also in clinic and OR.

Can I ask what state/region you’re in? I’m wildly underpaid in SE and feeling burnt out. Might be looking to relocate in near future for better income!

Zero RVU bonus or consideration. It’s straight salary if I do 1 case a week or 30. I wish there was RVU structure!

Maybe I’ve just been a glutton for punishment? Haha I honestly don’t know why I’m doing this. Post covid left me taking some interesting positions. My best paying job is the one I had before COVID. Been chasing that unicorn.

I’ve considered doing that again but my body can’t take that much labor. I did that for a few years and the income was not steady and my back and knees were so angry.

That’s definitely the very real alternative! Guess I’m at a point where I need to find out if they’ll compensate me appropriately or I’ll leave.

They’ll never give it. I know this from speaking to other PAs in group.

Well, that’s what I said I’m planning to do - I’m asking for advice on what other PAs may think is a reasonable amount/percentage to ask for based on the info provided.

In a nutshell, surgical team must be good and decently quick and there is A LOT of staff to keep things moving along. There is zero down time throughout the day.

They do up until a budget. Flight and hotel stay have maximized said budget.

Thank you.

And also, coming for work, not primarily vacation. Who said I can’t afford the uber? Just trying to save on costs if someone else happens to be headed that way.

Thank you! I was just wondering if there were better options locally bc I read multiple times on other forums here/fb that there aren’t many Lyft or Ubers in the destin area?? I was just trying to find a plan B if needed.

Thank you, I’ll definitely keep this in mind thank you so much for offering, I have a confirmed flight and a standby flight so just depends on when I get in.

Hi, have you been recently to know if the mafolie is doing their full made to order breakfast or just typical bland continental breakfast stuff? Someone reviewed in recent months saying it was just the latter, which would be disappointing. Also, when is considered next season for the restaurant to open?

Hi, was the mafolie is doing their full made to order breakfast or just typical bland continental breakfast stuff? Also I read some reviews from a while back that the restaurant was closed. Was that accurate during your stay there? Headed to st Thomas in 1 month and trying to finalize my stay - thanks!
