This is my calculation based on a 4 week month (i.e 20 weekdays, 8 weekend). Correct me if I am wrong.
- locum on 20 weekdays 3hr evening shift (total will be 6k)
- for the 2 sat you rostered to work in ops in the morning, you locum in the evening (total will be 600 dollars)
- for the remaining 6 weekends days that you are not rostered in ops, (you can do full day locum, assuming you work 8hrs on average) - total will be 4.8k

So total locum income will be 12.4k on top of your usual fp salary? Still quite worth it as almost double leh
