Hi! Anesthesiologists have a pretty poor reputation for having the biggest ego/largest risk for substance abuse issues. Do you find this reputation to carry weight after first hand experience? Do you feel working in that speciality puts the personnel at a higher risk for developing dependency issues?

Trying to figure out if the hollywood characterization came from the problem or if it's all smoke and mirrors.

Doesn't that make you more likely to share deals that might not really be deals? like if a cheaper deal was available somewhere else, wouldn't you choose a skyscanner or priceline deal to share with your members cause you make money there?

Guess we're both going to disagree, based on my experience. I'd be interested if you had hard numbers though

strange opposing companies are letting you benefit off each other, but I guess that's good for you. betting you had to share some user data to get those partnerships though, so there does need to be some data sharing on those deals...

I reference my full-time pastime as a television bug. I would say a conglomeration of passing remarks from a bunch of different shows. I watch a lot of CSI, ER, Medical/Crime shows so doctors of different fields are referenced a lot. I've always gotten the impression from shows that anesthesiologists were very necessary but mostly unreliable personally.

(This is nothing personal, I know hollywood has to be taken with a bunch of salt but I had wondered if there was inner truth to it)

usually I find google flights or momondo offer about 1/2 the time better deals than skyscanner or priceline, so it's hard to believe you'd consistently share non-profiting deals since that's the only way you make money (spamming us with ads). good you throw a red herring in there from time to time though
