It's not hard, it's what most professions do.

Also, please remember to include the following factors that should increase our compensation, even above doctors:

  • Time away from home. (doctors get nice benefits like student loans forgiven for working in disadvantaged communities).
  • Exposure to radiation shortening our lives (we are classified as radiation workers, and as such, at the top end of the scale above nuclear plant workers!)
  • Non-circadian rhythm lifestyles leading to disease and shorter lifespans.
  • Tons of un-reimbursed expenses such as crashpads, commuting expenses, use of our personal computers and cellphones for company business, and constant study outside of work "duty time".
  • Away during holidays and events of personal significance.
  • Exposure to exotic germs, bacteria, viruses and certain vaccines.
  • Higher rate of stress than most occupations.
  • Exposure to HAZMAT such as Tricrysal Phosphate (TCP) and other derivative organophosphates on a daily basis (yes DAILY).
