Stephanie’s thread a good one in genera, but to focus specifically on “surreal”: there exists a vast economy of which most people are entirely unaware, and nothing in a middle class background prepares you to expect it, and people doubt the existence of parts of it *so hard.*https://twitter.com/sehurlburt/status/979838931792310272 …

Funny, my visceral reaction is "Hell yeah! How do I board THAT train? What would it cost me? Can I do it without giving up other parts of my life that matter to me?"

Negatively how? As in it would be wrong to do so? Or as in such a thing would seem outlandish?

I understand the self doubt that people bring to the table, but we all need to get used to negotiating harder. Sometimes we will get knocked back, back you’ll still@work the same hrs/ days. Earning good money for valuable skills is not a bad thing.

Uh, a high-end medical specialist makes maybe $200/hour. And considering that it take fourteen post-undergrad *years* to make that much... (1/2)

@sehurlburt In any case "surreal" depends on what you're used to. It's the word that describes how I felt during the dot-com bubble, when my compensation was simply absurd. Especially when I'd been dead broke not so long before.
