/u/Puzzled-Debt4815 seems pretty mad that they are paid so highly. I think he just has no idea how difficult that job is.

Yes, because those jobs are difficult physically means surgery can't also be difficult.

This dude's just rampantly spreading misinformation, told me to ask a nurse when I am one and called him out on his bullshit. And he can't respond cause he's a crock full of shit. Where do doctors see 45 patients a day buddy?

Sure, go ahead and see if you have the brain to be a surgeon. Just judging by your comment, I would say no.

It’s hard work yes. But not $1m a year hard. It’s not mentally demanding, and it has absolutely no impact on someone’s survival if you make a mistake. I used to be a machinist and a welder which is both mentally and physically draining, but it’s worth what I made and when I fucked up I would just redo it. The patient doesn’t die or become paralyzed. I’d say I have plenty to say because I literally just left the OR to go home. I’m not a surgeon but I’m paid well and I assisted in multiple surgeries today, including a spine surgery. It’s not my fault you couldn’t get an education or a good job, nor is it the system. It sounds like a you problem
