The key here is medical resident. They’re abused in every country and forced sleep on call in the hospital and pay is shit compared to attendings.

This shit right here. We need to completely overhaul the medical residency system. Corporations are literally killing these workers for profit and the hazing culture of medicine continues to ignore that fact.
