Actually....I did match, through the NMRP, from a US med school! (believe it or not--who cares?)...I sought the old lists for a friend. Again, who cares if you believe it? I just wanted to speak the truth. And here's more (so put on your seat belt, if you have anything to fear from the truth, that is).
Do you think the Match is what makes my emotions run so high--or is it something else?
Yeah, it's something else.
Here it is: it's those tight pricks, the elitists, the money-grubbing, prestige-grubbing tight-wads who would sooner see a person drown than to lend them a hand. Why not just give up those lists from past years if I asked--for whatever reason? What harm could it possibly do you?? What if my request was for some sort of truly substantive help, rather than what should have been a cut-and-dry, simple-and-plane, finished-and-done deal right off the bat? Why didn't I get a quick reply without all this massive BS? The answer: there are a hell of a lot of pricks in medicine. It is a real shame.
You disgust me, and are the worst medicine has to offer. Your time will come, because with the attitudes you have, you WILL eventually be called to task for it. It may take years or a lifetime--but you will reap what you sow.
YUKKKK. I hope I never see any of your ilk in Residency. In fact--though I am no IMG (believe it or not--who cares once again), I think I would be much happier in a predominantly IMG Residency. Why? Because--on average--these foreign doctors have been so much humbler, so much warmer, so much more human and humane than the average (note: I said AVERAGE) US med grad 24 year old prick with feverish dreams of money, porsches, and hot women...I spit upon the values of these self-inflated, egotistical, pee-ons and ass-huggers. What a repulsive group...
Good luck to all the rest of you my colleagues--I mean the truly dedicated, open-hearted, kind doctors. Those who are dedicating themselves to medicine because they want to fight suffering. Who give their all for this goal--those 5-10% that it seems to me I find of that true-calling. You are the mold in which we should all strive to be cast as physicians. I am sorry to subject you to this bile as well as the ones who deserve it so richly.
As one famous outcast once said, "Sleep tight, ya *****s".
Sleep tight.
