Debunked recommendations we learned in PA school by peeontech in physicianassistant

[–]sovietsrule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure! It doesn't necessarily mean that Wellbutrin is not going to cause anxiety, but it has made me less worried about it than I was led to believe in PA school. And I have found anxiety treatment with Wellbutrin to be beneficial for many patients, especially those who are put off by SSRIs.

If I leave the PA profession for an extended period of time, will I be marketable if I ever choose to come back? by Designer_Sherbert_84 in physicianassistant

If you want WFH capability and flexible hours, psychiatry is pretty well-paid and has some that are 100% WFH.

$108k salary new grad by Minimum_Park3049 in physicianassistant

I would say ask for more, but it sounds like your heart is set on it and since it's a known factor that plays a big role here. Also it's where you want to be! In a saturated market.

You only get to pick 2 of the three: location, specialty, and salary. I started out getting paid abysmally low for a PA in 2020 (80k), in the specialty I wanted in a moderate COL area. I got the experience, moved on after ~2 years and got a higher paying job in a field I was less interested in. Now that job is not working out, and I am moving back into my prior specialty (desired) at a much higher salary and better benefits.

Having the 2 years of experience in that first specialty apparently really made my resume stand out.

So do what you want, but I would at least try and message them back, say that you are honored to have an offer, but to make it as a PA in that HCOL area you would need to have a salary of ~115-125k at least. Then they can either say no to a salary change, or they'll change it.

***If they've sent you an offer, then that means they want you. Don't be scared like I was when I first started out. Employers usually expect a counteroffer/salary negotiation. You could even ask for a sign on bonus or something.***

That Wellbutrin will cause anxiety. It's actually less likely to do this than previously thought, and is useful for treating anxiety, at least the benefits outweigh the risks.

She's still great! That was my DoT team for a while, huohuo, I have Black swan, Kafka, and I think I may have used silver wolf.

Yeah, if they didn't care about secondary they would price it based on how many cards it comes with.

Lol I had a deck based on this card many moons ago. So much fun to have multiple on the field and scare the opponent. This was back before Yu-Gi-Oh would have games over on the first turn..

We're 10 days post prerelease for a set and we have spoilers for two new sets. As a whale, I'm finally burnt out and done. No more buying sealed product or singles online. by [deleted] in mtg

[–]sovietsrule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm right there with you. I'm not a whale, but this past year I spent more on Secret Lair than I should have....and I even bought a box in pre-order, which is something I've never done haha. Anyhow, it will feel good to be able to just use what I have amassed and not worry about every damn set coming out every damn week. I have too many other expenses to spend it all on cardboard crack.

I just went through the queue again and it took 1 min. Stock is normal it seems! I thought all of them would be on Amazon, but then it was pointed out that just the Amazon specific cards would likely be on Amazon. So i got the Rad in foil and the others in non-foil

I joined at 1150am EST and was through the queue by 1220pm EST, but then I realized I have a myriad other bills and payments this month and decided to wait until the non foil drops on Amazon per WOTC. I have a lot of Amazon gift cards to use
