  • That’s pretty good money for doctors that are only working a 60 hour month. Compared to full time doctors, which supposedly average ~400k a year, that’s actually coming out better. (Sort of, https://medschoolinsiders.com/pre-med/how-much-do-doctors-make/ says that a cardiologist will be working 60 hour weeks, which would be 240 a month, or four times as much as this 60 hour a month doc).

    Forbes also has slightly different numbers, but it’s pretty clearly written by ai, so take it with a grain of salt.

    Glassdoor, which is probably biased by who goes on there and puts in info, says the average is closer to 300k, which is then really close for someone working less than 50% of the ‘average’ amount of hours in a month.

    If I were a doctor in tennessee, I’d probably consider it. I seem to recall that emergency medicine doctors moonlight quite a bit, so add in another 5-10 days working in the better paying hospitals near nashville and boost that ~200k to somewhere like 400-500k.







  • While someone else already explained what was going on, as someone who HAS stood in the roadway on a rural highway to warn incoming drivers about a tree on the road, it is surprising how close you can get and not notice a giant tree fallen into the roadway.

    Properly adjusted lights don’t illuminate things up high, and the grey/brown muck that is the road and the tree in the dark isn’t illuminated until it is way too late. Mind you, this was in an area where the only light was the moon and stars, so you aren’t going to be seeing much outside of your headlights because your eyes are adjusted to that little patch of yellow. The bit of reflective lighting down low just might help some folks.
