They don't mention how much they want to pay me so I haven't replied just yet and thought they may want to chase me up first.

Be sure you hold out for a suite at the Ritz Carlton Columbus while you’re on duty!

I think someone is having you on. Have you ever heard of a hospitalist who does the work of an orthopedic surgeon, a cardiac surgeon and a neurosurgeon, all in a day’s work while serenely making rounds on ten patients at a hospital the size of a youth hostel?

Can't be much different than doing surgery on a PC!!!!! If one makes a mistake just say "DAMN" and move on!!!!

um, not to put too fine a point on it, but that us what the above mentioned 'neurosurgeon' is....

Dr. Splinter, In light of this revelation, I would advise you not to take the assignment, regardless of the possible suite at the Ritz Carlton Columbus.
