Your insights are appreciated. <br /><br />Have now decided that if I choose surgery I am going to say I am applying in the field due to the fact that it will 'only further badassify' in the coming years. <br /><br />If that doesn't seal the deal, nothing will.Albinoblackbearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15222730484450544498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8178504302957200876.post-72898427259868421692009-11-18T17:20:45.915-08:002009-11-18T17:20:45.915-08:00Pretty sure the Da Vinci deserves it's entire ...Pretty sure the Da Vinci deserves it's entire own paragraph on why it counts AGAINST a career in surgery.

I...David, do you have the ability to be an a$$hole? I am not kidding. I wish I was. Surgeons, especially cardiac or lung are a$$holes on a general basis. They can be nice. They are often very nice people other than the times the throw the dressing across the room.<br /><br />Second question: Are you brilliant and you know it? You have to feel you are pretty special to start hacking at someones insides.<br /><br />My dear SIL is a general surgeon. She thinks it sucks at this point but likes her 2 homes and nice boat. So I don't feel all that bad for her.<br /><br />I think cosmetic surgery is the place to be. Many folks are paying cash. Also having worked on a plastics floor there is some variety.pinkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00198277802918823591noreply@blogger.com
