I work for two orthopedic spine surgeons and it amazes me how extremely chipper they are considering the monstrous amount of patients they see weekly. They always crack jokes! Probably because they went into the profession not just for the money, although very appealing. I mean, you better like your job after spending 16 yrs preparing for it.
