I'm working part time at a fine dining restaurant and hotel to support myself before med school. This week we've been catering to groups of doctors/pharm companies who are renting our hotel conference rooms for social events while a huge medical specialty conference is in town.
Now, there's been some really great guests that we've hosted. Smiles, super polite to the serving and bar staff, etc. Normal human being s***.
The other half however has the been the rudest group of guests we've ever hosted. Looking down upon and making fun of our staff. Being downright rude at the expense of making jokes. Derogatory. You name it.
Now I don't want to generalize. A lot of people are crappy and it may have nothing to do with the profession. Many of my coworkers are hard workers who are studying and have gotten into difficult grad programs and are just trying to make a living.
It sucks to be treated poorly because of some perceived social worth. But little do these guys know that I'm remembering their names and I'll be a doctor someday too. Med school starts next year and I hope they aren't faculty. So to you aspiring physicians, just remember to treat people kindly.
