Re: Who's shaped you?

During my third year of training I worked with a midwife (whose name I cannot recall at this point)....she was professional, but funny too.......she taught me that however lowly we think we are, we still have a value....and that those who felt that they were better than us, (Consultants) still had to come in, work, and get paid at the end of the month........and that because we were lowly, it didn't mean that we could be belittled or shouted at.....and that we should stand up for our patients first, and ourself second.
I learned that lesson well, and would take no cr@p from anyone.
