That's great! I can only hope my oldest will get a job when he graduates

You might find this interesting- I was asked about what my plans will be in about 4 years when my youngest heads to college. I have been pretty honest with the higher ups in the hospital that I might be gone in 4 years time. They told me that there is a trend in medicine that for every older doc who retires they will have to hire 2 to replace him or her. Seems the younger generation does not want to work as hard. They were lamenting it stating that the work ethic was changing. I laughed and said- wait a minute- maybe they want a life What's so bad about that? My profession are known to be workaholics you know

Tequila now I am even old enough to drink in your country so its going to be a blast . Funny how I am allowed to drink in my country for 4 years now, but in the us only since july.

Also funny that I am the only one in this forum who reveals her age.

Really, they’ve had doctors working so very hard. But it’s difficult when you have patients clamoring for your help. It’s hard not to work. I would be devastated if my doctor here in this small town decided to leave. He does work long hours, and there are so many who depend on him. I think the younger people have ideas about what is due their families too. This guy’s wife is a doctor too, but she works far less than he does.

Not naked Rafa. He’s too naked these days.

Champagne is really my alcohol of choice. Very dry. Expensive. Well, at least $50 a bottle. I haven’t ever had any of that $300 stuff.

I like margaritas though.

You can drink when you are 17 in Portugal?

Personally, I think it’s ridiculous that they send 18 year olds to war to be killed, but heaven forbid they drink at the same age.

we can drink at 16 it's 5 years!
As for the younger doctor generations, I would rather earn half of the thousands of euros that some really rich doctors earn here and have a life. That have way too many money and no time to spend it at all. That is why surgery is in no way a possibility for me.
No life, your job is your life. I cant do that.

i will get you the champagne you deserve, star.

One reason I chose my field- Yes I work hard while I am there but the on call is minimal. My hours are 6:30am to 5pm most days but I only work 4 days a week. So I get to spend time with my family- at least when they wanted me too when they were younger And I was lucky enough to have hubby want to stay home and be with them when they needed a parent the most.

We are not going anywhere! When everything is calmer and you have the time we will be here.

It's sad times for your family, but it will soon feel much better.

But you know, I am in Salt Lake City. I came up here to visit a doctor who I actually like and will stay over until Monday.

I saw a good movie last night, Moneyball, but I think you have to understand baseball to like it. We’ll see how the European market takes to it.

Here’s the view from my window. Streaks are on the outsidee of the window.
