It has been my pleasure to serve the emergency medicine specialty in so many ways for the past 35 years. I will be continuing some consulting work for the next few years, and hope to pop up at a Scientific Assembly in the near future!

Gabe WilsonThank you, Barbara, for years of enlightening us about something very close to our fears and desires: the EM job market.
Besides the interesting practical and logistical details you provided, you always injected hints and advice to be sure we were prioritizing what was appropriate and important for us at each stage of our lives and careers, and what might optimize our chances of landing that preferred job.
You will be missed.
May the next step in this journey bring enjoyment.

AstridThanks for all the work in putting this together, and congrats on reaching retirement. But what’s with all the Boomer-type commentary? Ragging the Paris olympics for being too green? Maligning the lack of sign on bonuses and $150 hourlies while conveniently ignoring that the mean med school debt in the 80s was under $30,000? $150 in 1990 is $370 in 2024. The highest hourly rate listed in the report is $375, and most of us would probably say that’s no enough for the current practice environment. And, the cherry on top, literally calling new grads entitled for having the nerve to want reasonable compensation for the ever growing demands put on us in the ED. It makes me wonder where you’ve been practicing for the past 5 years.

Geoffrey CrockettJeez, Barb. The Paris Olympics was absolutely amazing. So well done and so much fun for all. Yes, I was actually there. To state otherwise demonstrates that you were obviously not there, are far removed from the events, out of touch, and have little clue as to what it was really all about. Disappointed you led with this misconception for your final post.
