    Is it just me? Or does one instinctively feel that Imavirgin might find his/herself better served on P*r*zHilton.com?

    @Mediahohoho: Why would JAMA ever give him the cover when the professional body it represents stands to make less insane salaries if reform passes? They don't want reform, even if it's better for their patients, because at the end of the day, they're just a bunch of self-interested assholes, like the rest of the business world.

    @skt.smth: To be fair, I can't think of a single doctor I know who doesn't support some form of single-payer, government-run health insurance. But then, I don't know any cosmetic surgeons, either.

    @ShanghaiLil: So true! I've never once met an individual doctor who was against a broader, more inclusive health insurance scheme as well. But the professional association they're a part of is like a big fat unofficial union that constantly comes out against anything and everything that will reduce, by any amount, the crazy salaries of medical professionals, let the overall health of patients be damned.

    It's just like how, when you talk to public school teachers individually, they pretty much all agree that we need some major education reform, even if it means they lose some of their current perks (tenure, for example). But the teachers' union comes out against virtually any reform that lays a finger on benefits teachers currently enjoy, even if it means that they're also coming out against shit that would really help school children.

    At some point you have to wonder, if these professionals diverge so clearly from the recommendations and values of their professional organizations, why the hell don't they oust the idiots in charge and install more like-minded people? It's no longer enough for them to be like "Personally, I empathize with your argument, but..." That's not enough. Get your organizations on board, or those organizations' opinions aren't worth shit.

    When my company was owned by Viacom, we got seven Fridays off - completely off - every summer.


    That didn't last very long, unfortunately.

    On a Friday in the summer in NYC, you either leave at 9 AM, or you sit in endless traffic. So, getting out 2 hours earlier is not that much of a help anyway.

    I've never worked anywhere that had Summer Fridays. We don't even get direct deposit where I work. You get no sympathy from me, Rodale people. Welcome to the rest of the world.

    PTO policies = cool managers figuring out how to give paid Fridays off on a rotating basis without the higher ups noticing.

    Shit, now that I no longer smoke and am thus eligible to work at such health conscious mags, no one is hiring. Oh well, still enjoy the fuck out of not giving the govt and some asshole corporation a couple of grand a year.

    I have to laugh about the lady having a thrombo about people smoking outdoors- in front of her children! As if they were doing something lewd or illegal.


    "Listen you wet hen, there's a Recessipression on, let adults have what small pleasures they can peck outta this crazy thing called life, ya got me sister? No, I won't let go of your lapels til you understand, got it? Good. Now go get a real name, that one's a mess. Beat it. "


    (And for the record, I'm fully in favor of civilized disposal of cig butts.)

    Methinks "Men's Health" readers are mostly addicted to a different kind of "butts".
