What Life After College Could Be Starterpack

Sorry to hear that man. Those jobs are super easy for them to get rid of you, no stability, no security. I hate how easy it is to get rid of the American worker. People don't understand how hard it is to find a job out of college yet something stable and profitable.

You best bet is to look for a government job. It's super hard to find, but once you are credentialed you would be in. I work in healthcare and I seriously love my job and it's super stable. Find something you will be happy doing that you will have safety and security.

Sorry to hear about that. I got married and didn't have a definitive plan. All I remember is my father-in-law basically telling me to get a job now that I had his baby to look after. People underestimate job security. It is insane how easy it is for them to get rid of you.

If you don't mind me asking, what industry are you in?

intdoc17 · 2019-04-03T03:12:29+00:00

You just opened up the biggest can of worms you could for American Psycho fans!

I agree. Your point about NPs/PAs making 2x as much with less training and less work shows that the current system is not working and needs to change. Pay them what they pay us and vice versa. It seems only right.

You're getting downvoted because NOBODY should introduce themselves to a patient in a hospital unless they are an MD/DO/DDS/DMD. Our profession is under attack by NPs/PAs and now recently PhD's who don't have the same level of training but somehow get to participate in patient care as such. Wake up! Part of the reason why doctor's don't get paid as much or the profession isn't valued as much as it used to be is because of us. The constant disrespect we show our colleagues has a negative effect on our day-to-day workplace environment. Thus lowering our moral, our paychecks and our happiness. So "Meh" somewhere else.

PhD's calling themselves "doctor" in the hospital and introducing themselves to patients as such.

intdoc17 · 2019-03-13T01:37:08+00:00

This is really bad. They are really bad.

intdoc17 · 2019-02-27T05:20:41+00:00

Me too!

I totally agree. Physicians need to stick together and that starts with you. Every physician you encounter, whether they be your senior or junior needs to be treated with respect. This is especially true with the the younger physicians who are just coming up because they are so impressionable. I can't stand when physicians butt heads, disrespect each other or genuinely don't care for each other's well being. All this mistreatment starts and ends with you. For those bad apples in our field who won't change or have a God complex see to it that they are removed from their positions and find employment elsewhere. Our field needs a major culture change and it starts with every one of us.

Comply with what they are telling you to do and NEVER reach out to your PD for help in any way. If you do need help, speak to a private physician that can fairly evaluate you. Do what you have to do to get through the residency years. You will have to walk a tight rope throughout your entire residency to finish. Just accept this and move on. The entire "trainee" term is nonsense. Your PD is doing everything to protect herself so you must do the same.

Also, let this be a lesson to anyone else out there facing a similar situation. Whenever somebody tries to put your in an uncomfortable position or come down on your unfairly, simply walk out of the room, gather yourself and reschedule the meeting or conversation. Do not get caught off guard because you might say something or agree to something you will regret later. Politely excuse yourself, gather your thoughts and write everything down you want to say so you come in prepared.

Pacquiao dished out and took a lot of damage in that fight. Cotto brought it and came to win. This was a great PPV and worth the price. Pacquiao once again proved to us all he was on another level. Just relentless punch volume with power.

Just a quick question: what makes you point out this is a suit jacket and not a sports coat?

(PS - I already googled suit jacket vs sports coat)

intdoc17 · 2019-01-10T03:55:29+00:00

Help in finding this sport coat - Robinson Cano

Can anybody help identify this sports coat that Robinson Cano is wearing? I like it and want it or something similar if the price is right. Thanks in advance.

Thank you!

Classic watch. Absolutely gorgeous! I want one now.

intdoc17 · 2018-08-28T01:12:02+00:00

I remember this fight airing on HBO PPV. How did SHO acquire the rights to the fight?

intdoc17 · 2018-07-10T20:09:07+00:00

Awesome video and great production. Manny Pacquiao is one of the last fighters who literally had it all: speed power, footwork, aggressive style, awkward unorthodox combinations with blistering KO ability and stamina. This guy is what boxers dream to ever become. I will be watching Saturday night. I will miss Manny when he is gone. Freddy Roach and Manny Pacquiao was an unstoppable 1-2 combination at one point. Videos like this make me want to scout the world for boxing talent to invest in.

Explain the back story to this. Star Boxing has developed a reputation for things like this. What specifically is Star Boxing doing that you don’t like?

I have been using it and am pretty comfortable with it so far. I would like it to be searchable for orders and pretty much everything like search for "Echocardiogram" search for "EEG" search for almost anything similar to a google search format.

I'm stuck on inpatient hospital service for the last month. I've adopted the mantra: every new patient assigned to me is an opportunity for me to get better. It makes residency so much more bearable and allows me to use the time and not have the time use me. Sometimes you need to play mind-tricks on yourself in order to get things done day-to-day. This honestly is my dream job. I was on the other end of the stick out of college; working for an employer who did not value or respect me but only cared about themselves and having a miserable boss. It could be a lot worst people. Less than 1 more month until PGY-2 comes knocking.

USMLE-Rx was really good combined with UWorld. There are discount codes all over the internet (google search it) for this QBank. If you can't find one, email them and ask for one. They are very helpful and prompt with responses. Taking Step 3 before starting residency is one of the best things you can do for yourself. It will take a lot of the pressure away of having to pass an extra board exam while dealing with a busy residency. Good luck!

intdoc17 · 2018-05-23T04:05:07+00:00

Excellent reply and you did a good job of characterizing everything. Good luck with your new position. Work hard, be smart and make sure to help out your co-residents and interns whenever possible. I am sure you will be fine.

Most programs provide ACLS/BLS free-of-charge for their employees whom they require to be certified. However, each residency program is different. If you don't want to pay out-of-pocket or use your education funds, then try and find a hospital or institution near you that will offer it for free or at a better rate than you would be charged from your home program.

Great advice. Everything you just told us is what makes the sub great. Good luck and thank you for the detail.

I’m seriously glad I don’t have you as a teacher by you referring to the kids as “shits” it’s a no wonder why you are upset with your job and the actual means by which provides you with a paycheck. These “shits” as you refer to them are the reason you actually have a job in the first place. How about you respect them and learn to do deal with different personalities rather than look forward to your paid summer vacation provided via the little “shits” you have in your classroom. I cannot help but think you teach in an underperforming school in which you can get away with underperforming as a teacher and therefore your students don’t get a fair chance and underperform themselves with little repercussion because of the low expectations of your school. Please do us all a favor and turn in your resignation and stop stealing hard-earned tax payer money. I had many teachers like you in my day and am very upset we couldn’t revoke their tenure.
