their own schedule. If they don't want to see more patients, they don't have to, they just don't get more money for doing it. I don't think this is how it works. Perhaps this is why the author starts out early on saying that it's hard for anyone outside the profession to understand what it's like.
Maybe if President Obama took a pay cut, he'd only have to do half the work. If Rex Ryan took a 50% pay cut, he'd only have to coach half the games. In many cases the job has set requirements. If you can't meet them all, you go somewhere else. It's not a matter of having the option to do 50% of the work for 50% of the money.
Apparently, though, doctors now make a lot more than you did when you were working at a factory making $5.40 an hour (a fair comparison, given that they are similar jobs with similar requirement, responsibilities, and pressures 
), and I can't make any argument to change that.
