Thanks to the magic of guilds, all new trainee doctor jobs in the US start on July 1st*. If I don't get a job by then, I will probably have to wait until next July and find something to occupy me and provide me with money for a year. Hence my comment that I would be interested if my job search fell flat.

Even though it doesn't look like it sometimes, I do give at least five minutes thought to most of my major life decisions.

*which is why some people have very reasonably argued that you should avoid hospitals at that time of year.

Ooh, my wife was just talking about a large study that apparently did not support this claim (using administrative data, I think). I'll find out the title when she wakes up and post a link.
