Does a person making 25k work harder than a doctor?

Do you want someone working in a warehouse performing surgery on you.

If not and that person's schedule is booked because he is charging 1 dollar for brain surgery, would you offer him 5 dollars if it meant you could get to the front of the line.

Perceived value matters.

Specialized skill is less available then labor anyone with 2 legs and arms can do.

that's a skillset argument. the guy working in the warehouse can definitely say he worked harder than a doctor. people keep framing "hard work" about skills and how long you went to school. thats a different debate.

Physicians literally undergo more specialized training and accrue more debt in the process than 99.9% percent of the population with an extremely high bar to entry. Probably the least appropriate profession to use as an example in that tweet.

There’s also a small, small minority of doctors making in excess of $1 million annually. A simple google check can verify that.



How are people this stupid and just saying anything with people cosigning it…

The Dr could go to the warehouse and do a 12 hour shift stacking shyt. .

Now he may not be able to use the software required to do it but he could learn faster then it would take a warehouse worker to learn how to do brain surgery


The warehouse worker can't save anyone from dying due to a brain aneurysm. He's gonna call up and pay whatever he's asked if it means saving his loved one. 22 hour surgery and stacking boxes are 2 different workloads. One has a larger resource pool of available workers then the other, further increasing value.


That said I believe in profit sharing for companies.

The constant disrespect against men is ridiculous

Millionaire doctors dont work as hard as a single mom?

People cant be this stupid.... money is based on skill, knowledge, and your ability to sell.

A single mom working the register at 7/11 doesnt work harder than a 7 figure professional

again, what you're debating is who has a better skillset or whatever, that's not who's working harder. those are two different things. this shouldn't be this confusing for people in here. having a skillset doesn't mean you work harder. going to college doesn't mean you work harder. some of yall really view labor on some ego and job title shyt. "i have a degree so i work harder". that's like someone who went to college for art trying to shyt on a tattoo artist that was self taught. "i have a masters in art and i work in my own studio where i only have to do one painting a quarter, i work harder than the tattoo artist that works 40 hours a week and directly deals with customer issues." this is how yall sound. this thread is very telling about what some of yall think "hard work" means.

How was the actuary exams? how long did it take for you to pass them?

Difficult and if you’re not willing to apply yourself don’t do it, because you’ll waste your time

I took my First exam 2011, FCAS 2019

7 exams in 5 years

Does a body builder work harder then a flabby man working in a warehouse.

Does Annie Leibowitz who has an entire team setup her photoshoots and she basically shows up and presses the shutter button on her camera work harder than wedding photographers who do 30+ weddings a year?
"She has a better skillset than the wedding photographers who work all those hours more than her...so she she works harder because skill"

 

[Knuckles Red]

I think it depends. I’ve been to the Apple store. I’ve seen how hard they work. The knowledge that they have about those products. The services that they provide. They deserve to be making at least $90/hr with benefits and vacation time. This is coming from someone with two degrees. I see the “little people,” and I respect them.

 

[xiceman191]

Work smarter not harder. fukk I look like taking a job where I gotta break my back to make little when I can get a job that pays more that I don't have to work hard at.

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

If you work in corporate America you know there’s a bunch of low skill dumbasses running around. Don’t let them suits and ties fool you.

it’s filled with dumbasses, legacy hires, good references and nepotism

True… the difference is that said low skill dumbasses are properly credentialed and networked

 

[Sterling Archer]

having a skill and performing that skill doesn't mean you're working harder. some people are way too ego driven behind what damn job they have. I would imagine a lot of EMTs start out making somewhere in the $25k range and they have a lot of skill and i would say they are comparative to doctor. and on top of that they have to do a lot of this medical shyt in the field in hostile environments. Just an example.

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Think being a doctor is easy brehs. Just getting through medical school is a struggle.

I think it’s timely and demanding…. But you don’t have to be necessarily bright to get through med school

 

[8WON6]

i already explain why i used that comparison. people say $25k job and frame it around fast food workers, not people like EMTs. That's why you have people in here saying $25k workers "don't work as hard as" doctors. It's because people just associate wage with workload which is bullshyt.

 

[HoldThisL]

In the workforce, we are a brand and we get paid on our value and what we can bring to the table.

Sure the fast food job is more demanding, but so many people can do it.

Not everyone can save lives or have extensive health knowledge to determine health conditions or perform procedures etc.
