Lolz. I'm from a medical family (anesthesia, surgery, pathology, dentistry). Most of the above is complete bogus. Pathologists, many times I believe owing to the fact that they tend to be introverted and simply don't seem to know that many people from other specialties, tend to think that the problems they encounter only apply to them. Pathology is not the only job market that is saturated; but yes, by its very nature it is always going to be a niche specialty, making it more difficult to choose a location. This is especially true in the new medical climate where solo/small practices are dying dinosaurs. You can't just go back to your hometown and open up a laboratory.
However, to say that we have to settle for less or make more concessions is just silly. We make about middle of the pack money with some of the best and most flexible work hours. Surgeons I know have had to pick up and move their families because the job market was saturated in their area. Anesthesiologists I know had to rely on connections to get jobs, not simple postings on a website. Sure, you can be an internist or family doc or ER doc anywhere, but who in pathology wants to trade our life for theirs? Surgeons make bank, but their third wife spends it all.
Medicine is a rewarding pain in the ass.
