How much would you expect a pediatric anesthesiologist to get fresh out of fellowship in the upper Midwest?

Help, I’m trying to figure out if a job I might apply to should pay more.

-hospital employee -Full time, about 50 hour week (includes call) Covering everything on the adult side too. 100% supervisor -about 8 weeks vacation Medical, dental, malpractice, all paid

  • $5,000 and a week off for CME -covered moving expenses and all that stuff -401k with matching. I forget how much it matches up to

What do you think this should pay? 500k? 600k?

I work for a news company in the upper midwest - this is one of the strangest disappearance stories I've heard in a long time.

https://www.inforum.com/the-vault/6627809-Jordan-Grider-died-while-camping-alone-in-the-Boundary-Waters.-Was-he-devoured-by-wolves

Bringing this up because it reminded me of the Missing 411 series.

>What they found almost six months later after some hard-won police work and snowmobile tracking was a south-facing slope that Williams felt good about. He told the News Tribune he’d have wanted the same cover from the north wind had he been winter camping.
>
>The men followed the slope on foot right into Grider’s camp in April 2019.
>
>β€œIt’s in a super-remote place,” Williams said. β€œIf you were looking for a spot to avoid contact with people, he really did find it.”
>
>β€œWe were kind of just taking it in, myself and the agent, a visual inventory,” Williams said. β€œWe noticed a large amount of blood everywhere.”
>
>Williams took stock of the makeshift tent β€” a hammock slung under a green tarp which hung over a guy-wire. He also found a 9-millimeter Beretta pistol in the hammock with two loaded magazines outside of the gun.
>
>A line in the St. Louis County Sheriff’s Office report described β€œa large amount of blood inside the hammock and sleeping bag.”
>
>There were signs of wolves at the campsite, too β€” both footprints and scat, Williams recalled.
>
>The official report about the initial search of the campsite underscored what the two men failed to locate: β€œGrider was not found.”

For context - the Boundary Waters are an extremely remote region similar to the Florida everglades, and being from the region I've heard a lot of people tell stories of Bigfoot and other strange creatures. I don't personally believe them but some of the disappearances up there really make me wonder...

Odds are it was a Wolf attack, but the lack of any trace of his body is what sets this story apart. Maybe predators and scavengers picked the corpse apart and scattered it but considering this happened so recently you'd think there would be a trace of him.

Have worked (as a nurse) in a hospital ICU for the past eight months in the upper Midwest part of the US, and have noticed that all but a very few Covid patients pray or ask their gods to heal them β€” but their families certainly do!

CORRECTION: The "all but" should not be in the post's header. Thanks for the correction from Dunbarato below.* Truth is, by the time they enter the ICU, they tend to know it's the end.


It's as if the patients quickly discover that god-belief is complete bullshit once they're on a ventilator.

But the follow-up to this observation is that they don't tell their families that they don't believe anymore, perhaps allowing them to continue in their delusions.

PS: DO NOT fuck with Covid. The Delta variant is almost 10 times more infectious than the Alpha variant. It incubates for four days, and once you are placed in the intensive care unit, you have a 2% chance of living. But you will be dead with 7-21 days.

It's pretty normal in the Upper Midwest to not follow parking lines when the lot is covered with ice or inches of snow. This person was just a bit giddy for the snow that was still a few hours away!

Parents of the Upper Midwest, Scandinavia, and Canada: What do you do about clothes?

Cold weather is just around the corner here in Minnesota. I have an outside kid, and I'm wondering what I should know about dressing her for the weather. What do you put your kids in? How do you get them to stop taking off their hats and mittens? Is there a temperature where you stop taking them outside to play?

Edit: my husband wants me to add that I did not see snow until I was 18. This is uncharted territory for me.
