Med School sucks, Residency is supposed to suck harder

the attending was probably making a presentation on the topic and had totally forgotten to analyze that data, so he foisted off the task to someone more helpless.

Did he give out that assignment on the last day of the rotation? If so, then that is your get out of jail free card. It's your LAST day - you're on a different rotation the next day, and all of your duties from the previous rotation are officially over at that time, including ******ed assignments like the one your attending was pawning off on his students.

If I was given that assignment on the last day of my rotation, I would have verbally agreed to it to the attending's face, of course, but I'd be filing that task under "screw that bull****" as soon as my foot was out the door that day. Then I'd laugh about it at the post-shelf drink-off that evening. 😎

And at the end of the day, $42-50K per year is still a lot of money, except for the residents that grew up in daddy's pocketbook. If that is the case, they probably still have one of his credit cards anyway.

If you are single that's definitely a good amount.
