Netizen’s Tweet About First Paycheck as a Registered Medical Technologist Goes Viral
A tweet by a netizen named Baste has garnered various reactions on social media, as he shared his experience after receiving his first paycheck as a Registered Medical Technologist.
Baste’s tweet not only shed light on his personal journey but also raised awareness about the challenges faced by healthcare workers and the undervaluation they often encounter in the Philippine healthcare system.
Baste, in his tweet, mentioned that he started his job as a Registered Medical Technologist on June 20, and he finally received his first paycheck. He acknowledged that the salary would be relatively small, considering that he only began working midway through the pay period.
However, he emphasized the larger issue at hand – the undervaluation of healthcare workers in the country.
The medical technologist also expressed his desire to raise awareness about the state of the healthcare system in the Philippines and the way healthcare workers are treated. He believes that they are genuinely undervalued when compared to their counterparts in other countries.
The post sparked a range of reactions and comments from netizens who either shared similar experiences or expressed their support for Baste’s perspective.
“Kidding aside, I also want to raise awareness on how the healthcare system in our country runs and how they value us, the healthcare workers. I believe we are truly undervalued compared to other countries,” he said.
Some highlighted the long hours, strenuous work conditions, and relatively low salaries faced by healthcare workers in the Philippines. They echoed Baste’s sentiment that the dedication and contributions of healthcare professionals are not always adequately recognized or compensated.
