You start your weekend on Friday and don't end until Monday and sometimes you still have a shift on Monday. You sleep when you can. They don't care if you've already been on the clock for 16 hours, you have to go do the stat 2 hours away.
You do overnight call after working a full shift which can mean staying out all night. They're call pay is not the best I've seen. If you are to tired to drive they do not care. They're health insurance is OK but I had problems finding providers that took their insurance... there was like 2 dentists in my city that took their dental. You get to deal with nurses who are ordering exams and don't know the difference from a humerus and a forearm. Even if you call with an eta the patient is never ready and they don't have paperwork ready for you. Sometimes the nurses don't call btx if they send out a resident so you drive round trip 4 hours to not do an exam. Luckily you do get paid driving time.
There is basically no ladder to climb opportunity wise.
