I leave all the reaching for the stars to the wannabe rocket scientists. The rocket scientists will realise that publishing is not the bees knees (it never got me a seat on the bus or an upgrade on a plane) and like, who really reads it or cares? <br />I want to do my job well, get off on time mostly, be able to sleep at night and have nice holidays with people I care about.<br />Anyway, if ever you need to borrow wood of varying types and lengths, nails, nuts and bolts, funny shaped bits of tin, odd bits off gagdets bought years ago that have never quite made it to the bin,old expensive stereo that I don't have the heart to throw out, let me know, I have a shed full!

I realised in degree number one that I could either work all the hours God sent and maybe get a first, or I could do enough to get the mark I needed to get into med school and meanwhile enjoy wholeheartedly everything else uni had to offer. I made a very conscious decision in favour of the latter, and have never looked back. I love being a doctor, I enjoy my work, and there are days when I stay late when I don't have to. But it isn't now, and never will be, my top priority or the be-all and end-all of life. It's a great job, but it is ultimately just that.Lesleyfishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17736236818669718880noreply@blogger.com
