Hey Dude,
Concerning your comments about PLANK'S Opinion,
DON'T YOU SEE?
THAT'S WHAT MAKES THIS PLACE GREAT, MAN.
I don't know another site on SDN that has such an
ACTIVE ATTENDING AUDIENCE!!!
Dude, you have practicing anesthesiologists out in the Real World (like Plank), paying their bills doing this craft, willing to come to this site and contribute and offer their opinions.
THAT'S GOLDEN MAN.
We're all different. We practice differently, we think differently, we have different opinions.
You don't have to agree with our opinions.
Quite frankly,
You are benefiting from our opinions and it is to your advantage at your stage to see
ALL SIDES OF THE EQUATION.
The only way you can see ALL SIDES OF THE EQUATION is to
LISTEN TO DIFFERENT SIDES OF THE STORY (this ain't North Korea dude...it still IS ok to have an opinion).
Dude, don't get me wrong.
I'm glad you're here and just you being here proves you're a
MOTIVATED MO FO
BUT
Don't lose perspective, man. Think of the development of
YOU. AS A DOCTOR.
Would you rather hear one side only? A biased side probably? All thru
ROSE COLORED GLASSES?
No man.
I'm gonna take the lead here and respectfully give you some advice at this point...advice you can use thru the rest of your development as a physician:
LISTEN TO ALL SIDES MAN. DON'T SHUT OUT OPINIONS OR SUGGESTIONS.
Listen to ALL since the more opinions/suggestions/ways to do procedures/how things are in general
you hear,
The better decision you can make
FOR YOURSELF.
Shunning opinions makes you
SMALLER IN KNOWLEDGE BASE.
You don't have to agree, but it will
HELP YOU GROW
IF YOU LISTEN.
Especially if the info is coming from a RELIABLE SOURCE.
Like Plank.
I'm not saying I agree with him, FYI.
But listening to him makes my knowledge base WIDER.
Listen to all sides.
IT MAKES THE DECISION YOU MAKE IN THE END FOR YOURSELF WISER.
I'd be lying if I said I didn't get excited to see the multi-size, intermittently bolded font in a thread I've been reading.
I love your perspective. I hope I can use it to my benefit as I start my intern year this July.
