[QUOTE="yaah, post: 21325297, member: 29747"] Again, just because you don't think it's a valid career path doesn't mean it isn't valid for others. It's an extreme step, obviously. It's the kind of step you take when you are trapped and in a no-win situation - i.e., not applicable for most. We are all masters of our own lives to at least some extent. You do it when you hate your job or it wrecks your life to some degree. Based on how some people post on here, it sounds like some people are at that point. NOT EVERYONE! You don't think I'm uncertain of my future too? Of course I am. Anyone who looks remotely critically at health care in this country should be uncertain. Again, please don't jump to conclusions just because you want to basket my opinions and experiences into the "irrelevant" category. The snark is so completely unhelpful. You dismiss any data that is posted, but then also dismiss any possibility of countering it because selected anecdotes are more important? I never said your experiences and personal findings are not data, just as I said my personal experiences and such are not reflective of everyone. I'm glad you're posting your observations and opinions - more people should. But each opinion is important. I mean - you think you're not biased, but people with opposite opinions ARE biased? As I continue to say (and most people seem to ignore), I find the whole situation maddeningly confusing - I am not in the only group that has been struggling to find competent candidates, but yet I also know of people who do struggle. However, there are so many variables in every individual's experiences and needs that it makes individual experiences less than helpful in gauging trends. In addition, the practice of the field itself has been so fluctuant over 20 years that it makes current reality and prior reality not congruent. Hence why data would be helpful. It would get twisted to fit every possible viewpoint, but at least it would be data. Some of you have to be in leadership positions for national organizations, right? [/QUOTE]
