so just starting 3rd year and I am trying to feel out my place on the team. I'll paint the situation.
Enter patient room with intern, discussing the condition. On occasion I find something or remember to check for something that the intern doesn't or maybe I read something pertinent and whisper to my intern. My approach is, if I keep my intern looking good and knowing everything when grilled by the senior or attending then things will work out well in the end.
Well, so far its working, she is always on her game. But the down side is, I never seem to get any of the credit and I don' t think the attending knows my name. I would be fine with this accept... who's writing my eval? Because will i have done all of this for nothing and then get a crappy eval?
Meanwhile the dick that rotates with me loves to show up his intern and/or shout out the answer when his intern is getting grilled. Obviously not cool, but if he comes out ahead of me in the end I'll have to push him down the stairs and that won't work out for anyone.
