But I came home with £4300 today for 3 hours work start to finish. That's £1433 an hour, which is £2 million a year. Your wife doesn't earn over 4 million dollars a year does she, geoffrey? Surely if she did, she'd buy you some Just For Men..Freakaloin wrote:my wife makes more money then any of u here...ALL OF U R LESS FORTUNATE THEN ME!!! how does it feel?
Edit: awesome maths.
Can I go into work with you? I'll have to put my old size back on but your line of work sounds enjoyable.sys0p wrote:But I came home with £4300 today for 3 hours work start to finish.

Different root, though.saturn wrote:I used to spell it anaesthesiology all the time, but apparently the most common used form is "anesthesiology" in Holland (and the world).
But strangely, gynaecology is the common form here(I'm all for original latin or greek spelling, how elitist it may appear to laymen)
I'm trying to go radiology rather than surgery; but no, I'm still a locum middle grade in A&E. Not least because the pay is pretty amazing; plus there's plenty of time to <s>dick around with drawing and music</s> revise for my exams

I'm a researcher in the immunology and cancer departments for the not-for-profit drug discovery branch of a prominent cancer clinic and also for its peripheral pharmaceutical company. Specifically, I design and run tests for new treatments of asthma, GVHD, and a few different cancers.
Basically I do the expiriments and someone else puts their name on the paper.
At the end of the summer I'm dumping the job and returning to school to take a stab at getting my PhD in immunology and cancer biology so I can publish something when and how I want to publish it.

Interesting, I did research for the Hematology department here in Rotterdam. It related much to Graft versus Host disease.werldhed wrote:I'm a researcher in the immunology and cancer departments for the not-for-profit drug discovery branch of a prominent cancer clinic and also for its peripheral pharmaceutical company.

Is it worth it?saturn wrote:"Many people think that becoming a doctor is difficult. Others have some sense that becoming a physician takes many years and is expensive. Most people realize that being a physician is difficult yet rewarding. All these people are correct. Becoming a physician is a long, arduous, expensive process that can only be accomplished with great dedication."ToxicBug wrote:Can you explain all the steps it takes to become a doctor?

That's how it works in the States. I've met a Canadian MD on vacation and she told me that it's slightly different in Canada, but I'm not sure about the details anymore since I was slightly inebriated.
In the Netherlands you'll have to complete 4 years in university and get your doctorate (or MSc Science), then you proceed to clinical practice in numerous teaching hospitals during your 2 year internship. After that you're an MD and will have to get a residency if you want to specialize in something you'll really want. Mostly that's another 6 years. And then I've not counted the 1-2 years you mostly work as non-resident to get more experience.
Although $34,104 a year for residency is not baaad...
