Comments:

one of my surgical bosses who I had a good working relationship with recently had a talk with me and
jokingly that I'd be "wasted in anaesthetics" and that I should come back to the other side.  on a
more serious note though he said 
1. career satisfaction despite all teh BS they have to put up with is much higher and 
2.  a good surgeon could earn double that of a good good anaesthetist

how true is 1 and 2?
