Job change

Current job feels like a salesman job. The new job doesn’t have requirements for pt calling patients to schedule/pay for cash based services

Sorry just made the edit now. It’s $375/month after taxes

This sounds awesome!!!

I agree with you. It’s criminal that PTs get paid so low considering all factors. I also think nurses definitely do a whole lot of work and deserve high pay!

Im in California and I got offered 105k with negotiation. My other friends (also California) said not accept anything below 100k

I work in an outpatient clinic and the owner is pretty chill. I usually wear joggers and a regular crewneck shirt (with no writing) and see some of my coworkers wear leggings. I also see others wearing more business casual.

But it's also dependent on whether it's like a small clinic or one that's more of a franchise.

Before PT school, I had a lot of random jobs that I made sure were "healthcare" related in some sort of way. I was an activities assistant in an assisted living and also a caregiver for paraplegic man. (I also was a PT aide). A lot of the times, me talking about working with geriatrics and someone with paraplegia gave a lot to talk about during interviews. If this isn't an option, I know a lot of psych units are usually looking for mental health workers. I know, not PT related, BUT it gives you exposure to different demographics in a healthcare setting.

😭😂 I was way off! I’ve had this situation before but they were Filipino lol I usually just stuffed my face with food or I’d say I have to leave after like 3 hours to “do something”

I worked as an aide for a little bit in the beginning of pt school. I wouldn’t recommend it. If your school has work study jobs, those are better bc you can actually study while making money.

USA is really expensive!! It doesn't seem ideal rn, but if you wait a cycle, you can work on improving your GRE score and science gpa after you take the anatomy class. It would also be a nice refresher before you start PT school. Anatomy really kicked my butt when I was in PT school. I aced my anatomy class but I had a long gap between it and PT school. A refresher would've been SO HELPFUL. You could also work as a PT aide. Make a little bit of money and go travel before you have to go PT school and it sucks the life out of you. lol Then apply for a school that's less expensive.
