the tragic downside to graduation
I asked for my usual student discount at yoga this morning ($12 instead of $20!) and then realized mid-sentence that, oh no, I am no longer a student.
I don't imagine too many places offer doctor discounts.
I think you do... Ask the other doctor in our family. Professional discounts on magazines, maybe movie rentals, etc.
ReplyDeleteWhat about "I'm-neck-deep-in-med-school-debt"-&-earning-a-minimal-salary-as-an-intern discount? Sounds good to me.
ReplyDeleteRight??? I'll have to ask for that discount at the gym tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI still haven't calculated out how much we're getting paid per hour because I just don't want to know.
