Prolly shorten life span by 5 years if U choose this career.

Either go for broke, get into a lucrative speciality like ortho or eye or get into a chill consulting speciality like infectious disease.
The kind that deal with mass number of patients like FM, IM, A&E cannot do one. Soul sucking

How about radiology?

It's not like the consultant is seeing cases one by one.
Got MO for that.

9 offs in a month + night off

Effectively work 12 - 15 days a month

MO and junior resident should be the same.

Sounds like U found a hack.
Rest of the days go locum.
Say 10 days 10 hours each.
Another 10k per month.
One year 250k plus 120k. More than ortho full con pay liao

Huat ah!

Or even better
Find a partner , go setup a clinic
See till huat.
Start bidding for 30k clinic space and hiring your fellow a&E cons
