Reminder to Any Forums that medicine (pretty much any job within the medical field) will always be a profitable job to go into, can't be automated and will always pay pretty well. It's a generalized area everyone should look into. The only downside is that most of it is incapable of being WFH
Where my fellow hospitalbros at? (OR worker here)

only seems worth it if you're a tech or a nurse. being a doctor consumes your entire life.
t. dropped out of med school after 1 semester because the workload (and the fact that it was only going to get 10x worse in MS3-4/internship/residency) made me borderline suicidal
If you like the idea of being subject to mandatory vaccination every 6 months or risk losing your salary sure
I seriously can't think of a more humiliating job
If I want do tik tok dancing, I could easily do it at the comfort of my own home
my aunt told my mom that she lied about getting the vaccine. not just the COVID vaccine, but every seasonal flu vaccine that basically every healthcare worker has been required to get for decades now. apparently her employer doesn't check the records to verify it. she's an LPN that does in-home healthcare for the elderly and people with disabilities. kek.
>If you like the idea of being subject to mandatory vaccination every 6 months
People who did get the vaccine weren't required to get a booster where I'm at and nobody gives a fuck if you did or not. I haven't heard of booster requirements at any jobs around me
Glad to see you’re filling my koffers to be thouroughly medicated against your will.
Here in Italy doctors were required to get the booster shot too. Doctors who only got 2 shots were labelled "non vaccinated" and then got suspended from working in hospitals or clinics.
My mother is a retired physician (luckily) and she didn't get the shot, she's still got her license suspended until december 2022 because SCIENCE
Medical is a safe field, in terms of always finding work and making decent pay. Downside is a lot of it really is hard work, as opposed to most white collar jobs where you get exhausted trying to look busy.
Oh boy I've been a BSRT (r) for just over 10 years now. Never once have I operated any x ray equipment for money. YOU ARE NOT ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE A PROFITABLE JOB. To be fair I stopped actively looking for a job in x ray 7 years ago, but I did try pretty hard to find a job within 500 miles for the first 3 years.

Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, can be automated. It’s just a matter of time.

I earned more in my call centre job at 18 than i do as a FY2 doc.
good morning, autism
Humans are way too complex and varied to rely on autonomous robots to get it right. That includes the surgical and anesthesia side of surgery. Skin stitching and performing a complete hysterectomy in a patient that's had multiple surgeries before are not the same
People often point to surgery but that's likely the first area that would be automated. It's all the ward medical work and patient interaction that would be last.
They've tried to automate anesthesia before, it went terribly
I fell for the nurse meme. Though I'm in a CVSICU for 6 months now. I think I can make a bit more by switching hospitals, I probably will.
The OR chuds at my hospital are all stuck up
This. You will just get rugpulled by forced vax horseshit.
We've got a surgeon who got into land development recently. Absolute scumbag of a guy who has apparently borrowed close to 200% of his net worth as a business loan to build a strip mall. It'll be interesting to see if he fucks it up.
I would add that I work in finance for the corporation and heard this from friends at the bank(s). I hope he succeeds so that we never have to subject another patient to him again.
I fell for the doctor meme. Shit pay, shit hours and fucked up working culture. Also in no way intellectually rewarding. I quit health care altogether and never been happier.
