~ Seattle, Franciscan Medical Center ~
It is lunch time. Liz is in the cafeteria, sitting at the table with her mentor Dr. Kaviraj, and four other surgeons.
That morning, Liz arrived to work on time. Her workday started with a person from human resources who explained her rules that every staff member needs to follow and provided her with her employee badge and some brochures to go through.
Liz took a photo of her employee badge and sent it to her father.
After that, she went to the office of Chairman Lee and they discussed the usual schedule for surgeons. Chairman Lee explained that as a full-time surgeon at FMC it's expected that she will be in her office two days a week during work hours from 9 AM to 5 PM, meeting with patients for exams, diagnosis and consultations. One day a week she will be available for consultations and emergency procedures in the urgent care ward. One day is dedicated for surgeries while two days a week she will be the surgeon on-call.
