For the hours they have to work and the conditions they have to work in... doctors are paid ok.

You'd have to pay me a hell of a lot to have to drive to a hospital each morning and stand around on my feet for a 48-hour shift dealing with high-risk problems and real people all day. No thanks.

I think they do it for pretty reasonable compensation considering.



Abusive overtime and oncall are rampant in both industries. Let's not try to debate who has it worse, it's bad and neither workers should accept it.
