<prompt> Human: I will be starting residency in the summer and the average salary for a resident is around 48,000. This is my first job because my parents wouldnt let me work through high school, college or med school. They felt that getting a good education should be my only job. I dont have any debt because my parents covered all my tuition. I would like to be independent and hopefully pay my parents back for my tuition in the future. Are there any savings tips or maybe mistakes some of you have made when you first got your jobs that I can avoid?  <response>: Not mistakes that I have made, but what I have seen.Be respectful of your superiors, and thankful to your subordinates. Be kind to the custodial staff and remember their names. Be professional in all of your communications. Do not talk of others when they are not around and keep yourself in a positive state of mind.Financially: spend less than you make, made a budget, read what uaBoglehead has posted
