I’m a Thai actor. I can’t speak for all actors, but I get paid ~250k baht per episode for a lakorn (TV drama). A typical lakorn has ~15 episodes. I usually do 1 per year. Add to that the salary I get from the TV network to stay with them.

Ped psych rn, getting my bachelor’s. $86k for 36hrs a week at a low acuity pediatric suds facility in the Midwest. It’s a therapy led facility, and the therapists got pissed when they realized I make more than them, so they had a riot and now I’m forced to lead therapeutic groups because their caseload of 3.5 kids is “unmanageable” 🙄
I’m paid $60k/year, have a caseload of 70 for 35 hours/week work, and work conditions force me to work 50 hours/week to complete my duties, no additional pay, overtime LOL.
We are not the same.
Oh, I certainly wasn’t trying to imply that we were the same. I know I’ve got it good. For how much education you guys have, unless you’re private practice, you guys get fucked. I’ve worked with a lot of therapists who were severely undervalued and hard workers. The ones at my current facility are just babies who don’t know how good they have it. One of the loudest complainers about not being able to get his work done literally has weight lifting time scheduled into his work day.
You were also the only other person in the mental health field, so that’s why I commented on yours specifically, and I thought I would share a little anecdote about how my job sucks, too. I’m the only nurse Friday - Sunday, and on top of having to complete my nursing duties, I also have to do theirs.
