Recently, my wife has been working a huge number of hours. She has a fairly thankless job, working mostly for physicians who completely under value the value that she brings. She works a tremendous number of hours in late January, all of February, and during the first part of March, through the annual meeting. Today, for example, she left the house around 7:30 am. She didn’t take a lunch break at all, and was still at her desk until after 9:30 pm. It is utterly ridiculous.

Last year, it was bad – just not as bad as this year. The doctors have gotten worse, with the continued expectations that more work can be done with zero additional staff being added up front. The outlook doesn’t look much better.

So it’s time for her to start looking for another position.
