Moderator EMEDPA Posted July 12, 2022 Moderator Share Posted July 12, 2022 I just accepted a half time benefited W2 position at one of my per diem jobs. Paying for my own benefits the last few years has been a huge pain. I will be dropping one of my other per diem jobs(the one that pays the least). This new position pays based on years of experience and I max out the scale so will make more/hr than I ever have before( and more than the FP docs at my current primary job). This set of changes should net me the following: 8 hrs less of scheduled work per month (192 vs 200, although I often work 240-260) 60 miles less driving per month(and the driving I do now will be compensated). A lot of extra sleep about 20k more/year(not counting the value of a full benefits package) medical/dental/vision/retirement/cme/PTO/disability policies/life insurance, etc I have gotten pretty burnt out the last 2 years and it has gotten worse in the last six months. This is the right way for me to go. I wish you all the best in finding work/life balance for yourselves that does not sell you short. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
