CRNA
Almost went into investment banking, even went on interviews at Bear Stearns and Lehman. Made the right call there.
Earlier in life, I'd teach high school sciences of some sort and coach football and wrestling.
Now? I'd move to Idaho or Montana and run an archery/hunting supply or work for a hunting outfitter.
I may still love out there.
Anybody out west hiring young enthusiastic intensivists/cardiac docs starting in 2020?
I periodically see postings for what I believe is POD's group in Missoula, MT. Thus far, I have been unable to get my wife to agree to move out west.Earlier in life, I'd teach high school sciences of some sort and coach football and wrestling.

You should shoot Periopdoc a PM.
As for me? I want to die and come back as this guy:
👍I would have stayed a ski patroller.

A couple of teasers from the last couple of weeks:
Hope the waves are good cuz the pow is epic this year.
Ah, I thought he was. So, that's a different group, then. Still sounded awesome...He's not in Missoula. Shoot him a PM.
My old PD quit between my CA2 and CA3 years and moved to Missoula to work at the VA there. He was a pancreatic cancer survivor and decided life was too short to stay in the rat race so he peaced out. We all missed that big Latvian teddy bear.
Has the weather been decent enough to enjoy all the snow. Every time I check the weather for that big resort a few hours south of you the wind is howling and it's still dumping which means 75% of the mountain is closed down. Ah how I miss the old owners of that place - sustained winds of 40mph with gusts to 60+, have fun at the top - we hope you don't die getting blown off a cliff. YEEEWWWWW.

Dude, have you seen the coverage of Pipe lately?? They're getting their 3rd major swell in the last 30 days. Where do think the storms that are bringing you all the snow are coming from. Unfortunately by the time the swells make their way to me they are accompanied by howling onshores and buckets of rain.

I've heard it's getting tougher now, but check out these two threads, I think they should have all the answers you're looking for (see answers especially from Leforte and C.P., Leforte is a surgeon while C.P. is an anesthesiologist):Is the process arduous in order to practice 'down unda' if one is a US trained attending? Not gonna lie, I've always fancied aussie land...
Naaaice. Was surfing the North Shore a couple of months ago and even then, it was killer good- literally as I was seriously tossed around.
Yeah I guess I used some off color language and offended someone's sensitive feelings.Probationary status??

Respect gets respect. If you paddle out and play by the rules, don't drop in on anyone, and let the obvious regulars get their waves, you'll be just fine. If you go out somewhere and aggressively try and chase waves and compete all aggro with the guys who surf that spot every day, you'll be in a little hot water.Is the North Shore as locally dominated as is written about? I have heard mixed things, some say not to even paddle out because some local enforcer will slap you and others say it's mainly all talk/rumor. I have consistently heard that the west side and Kauai are kinda heavy with locals.
