IMO. I dream of working at a place that for once there is literally no way you'll be bugged after hours about sone petty shite going on at 2 AM.
100 percent.
The long hours would be tolerable if I knew that I was finished once I left.
The money is great, but at some point I will have to weigh "money vs heart attack".

If you're not a doctor, you're a fricking idiot for taking a job like that.

Think about it like this. If you were a soldier and you had to go to war and she was getting pissy about you having to go to war instead of go to her dumb arse friends gender reveal party, how do you think she would feel if you decided to desert from your duty to please her and do what she wants you to do? Do you think she would honestly respect you for that or actually resent you for it? Obviously she would resent you for being a cuck arse bitch. It’s the same situation. You have professional duties and responsibilities that come before her. That’s called being a man. If she wants a pet accessory to take to her homo arse social events she doesn’t want a man.

Not a Doctor.
Trust me, they make it worth my while.
I sock it away, max out 401k, Roth etc.
I have enough stashed to where I could walk away and take an extended break if I get burned out.
That makes it tolerable, knowing I don't need the job.
I'm not married, no kids, no debt, nice nest egg.
That alleviates a lot of the pressure.

She sounds young and immature. You’re not marrying her. Don’t go. Be assblasted drunk when she returns. frick work; this is a power move opportunity.

if its a couples thing there's value if you are not married. you are picking up life long friends.
do you want to marry this one? anyone ever?
ps get a job with hours you control unless you own it.
60 hours and on call does not spell family man. if you don't go she gets the reality. money or time.

Exactly.
Most women I have dated think it's cool to be with a guy with money but get frustrated at the hours that I work.
They don't pay me top dollar out of the goodness of their hearts.
Girls want the lifestyle, but aren't interested in how the sausage is made.

Corn fed is just a saying in the midwest if a girl is pretty and isn't flat chested.

Good Lord, everyone sure is hung up on the cornfed thing.
I've lived in the midwest my entire life.
I've also heard offensive lineman being referred to as cornfed, and also hogs.
When I was in High School we always referred to a hot girl with large breasts as cornfed.
Meaning her large breasts were a result of midwest corn.
Maybe different generations use the term differently, or different parts of the midwest use it differently.

She needs the D as much as I need the P.
She will go, have a good time, and get over herself.

It’s dumb and she shouldn’t be furious about it, especially if you put in a 60 hour week. But even though it’s dumb it’s important to her for some reason so sometimes you just gotta shrug and go do dumb stuff (she likely thinks a lot of stuff you do is dumb as well).

Well corn fed is a saying everywhere that you are big.
And dump the fat chick that wants you to go to a gender reveal. Thank the rest of us later.

I know.
Women are nuts.
First it was wedding, went to that.
Now gender reveal.
Then she will have the kid and of course we will have to go see the kid.
And they are in the process of purchasing a home, so I guess I will be expected to attend a house warming party.
Good grief, I have my own life.
She's not my friend, it's not my kid, it's not my house.
I don't have time for that nonsense.

The good thing about being married over 30 years is that this kind of stuff has been a sorted out long ago. My wife knows that I would never go to a gender reveal or a "storm" or couples shower or any of that stuff. In my day, guys did not go to showers. If it's something important involving her family, I know to go without bitching.

She's 5'8" and 120 lbs, with C cups.
I don't consider that fat.

Someone tell me what job is on call 24/7, because I don’t believe it exists. If it did you could never have a drink, leave your house, or commit to anything taking more than 30 minutes.
Unless we’re talking about being on call for a couple days straight, like a physician, but op didn’t say that.
ETA: I would attend just to support the whole “if it has a penis it’s a boy” thing that is so controversial these days
