Hello, I am moving my daughter into her new apartment here in Orem and we purchased everything new at Costco as we drive from out of state and have a ton of cardboard that’s too much for the complex to take. Where can we drop off? These are huge pieces that we can cut up from headboard bed frame, tv, mattress etc. thank you! 😊
My friend is struggling with the decision to leave FA 🌐and is looking for advice. They just got past probation and are struggling with sleep despite lots of approaches to managing and this is contributing to health issues. Commuting to base is going fine, job is going fine but wouldn’t say they love it and don’t get excited to go. Fortunately no money issues at this stage as the other factor is they are very young, 22. They are thinking they should give a regular job (has degree and a good offer) a try so they can sleep in own bed every night. favorite part of the job is flight benefits and the flexibility and personal drops. A little scared to commit to the regular workforce of 40 hours a week and a different type of stress and give up being at a great company but also feels like they could always go back to FA later in life. They have so much respect for FAs and look up to them so much, and is scared to disappoint family and friends by leaving it so soon, definitely getting pressure to just stick it out from them. But I’m saying this isn’t for everyone. What advice would you give your friend early on in their career?
For those of you still concerned about opportunities for DOs, here are some examples of highly successful osteopathic physicians to help as you navigate applying to this path, especially if you are worried about compensation, prestige, or “ceilings” 😉
DOs are cardiologists, neurosurgeons, transplant leaders, NASA physicians, White House physicians, executives, and leaders at some of the top institutions in medicine.
Edit to add: I actually agree with a lot of what you’re all saying. My intent wasn’t to imply there are zero differences or challenges in the residency process for DO applicants, because there absolutely can be, especially in certain competitive specialties and academic programs.
I think the point I was trying to make is that the long-term ceiling is often much higher than premed culture makes it seem. There are definitely barriers in some pathways, but there are also many DOs who ultimately reach very high levels in medicine, leadership, academics, and compensation.
Both things can be true at the same time.
