Taking a conditioning hiking series with the seattle mountaineers as well as a sea kayaking class. Wish me luck.

This is exactly the response Id expect from ACEP.

Nurses do the majority of this as verbal orders where im at.

For now.

2013, EM was The Speciality at that time. Whoops.

Ya this was predictable. Programs still fill, quality of applicants goes down, next the pay will drop more. EM is in the ****ter, sorry dudes this sucks ass. For those in residency, consider your fellowship options, but be careful, critical care is next.

Yaaa nothing to do about this one that wont make you look bad. Let it go. Turnover is so high in the ED maybe shell ragequit in 2 months.

Yaaaa thats terrible man, why arent people doing locums or something?

Update: got the shaft, hourly pay went up 4 dollars an hour, last pay raise was 7/ 2021. Sooooooo 2 dollars an hour per year. Yaaaaaaaa shoulda been a nurse.

Anyone have MGMA (or whatever its called) for 2023? Our group is up for a pay increase sorta soon and I want to see if were gonna get the shaft.

Wait is this real or satire?

Sounds like new job is best.

Physicians jobs are to be the pinnacle of their specific specialty, if all we gave a **** about was the 80% of nonsense in medicine, wed all be NPs. Ahh fuk it, im not engaging further, youll make a great admin someday and I dont mean that as a compliment.

Sorry dude the above was an ignorant statement. Im EM/IM/CC, have been out of the ED for a bit, and quite frankly going back and seeing an eye complaint requiring the slit lamp, ob/gyn patients, sick kids, managing the department, etc has me a tad worried. No I dont think an ICU doc can...

I think a fitting name for him would be l’autruche. The ostrich.
