These are the oddest statements ever.

We make it look easy because of our physician training and skill. If it looks hard then we aren't doing it right.

When good surgeons take out an appendix in 15 min they make it look easy too - and it's not because it's easy, it's because they they're skilled.

Every high level job is easy till it isn't.

I agree with this. I’ve seen some awful locum docs and equally horrid crnas. You think it’s easy cause you’re well trained and professional. There are many different ways to eff up and have a bad outcome.

Edit: to clarify I am locums doc.

I dunno. These days some of the locums docs and locums crnas are often times better than the regular employed w2 staff.

Locums quality isn’t like it was in the past where those on the outskirts of the profession struggled to find full time w2 job. But ur quality will vary.

Definitely agree; there used to be a stigma there, but there are more and more very capable anesthesiologists who have discovered the locums world, where you can earn closer to what you deserve, without working alongside some of the game playing, scheming W2 colleagues that always seem to be able to manipulate the schedule to benefit them, where everyone is making the same.

I should have clarified that I am a locums doc. I didn’t mean any disrespect to any kind of physician locums or otherwise
