What a mood

In a culture where people ask how you’re doing as a symbol of politeness and not out of any sincere desire to actually Know, you are equally expected to answer with some vague polite affirmative (“it’s going good/fine/ok”). Being truthful and saying “it’s not going well/its going bad” implies intimacy and invites further questions about your personal life. So somehow the alternative has become that being exactly neutral conveys a sense of negativity and gets the point across without opening yourself to invasive questions from strangers (Who, once again, are probably only asking them because this is the politness script) and honestly it’s kinda buckwild.

This is some truth laid down right here boy.

quasi-normalcy

Millennials have essentially been forced into a perpetual teenagerhood by socioeconomic circumstance, we desperately want to grow up, and we’re worried that we’re running out of time to do so

Adding a bit to this sentiment, being a millennial training in the medical field has also added to this diaspora. The type of training our mentors received before is no longer the same from what we’re experiencing now. Now we have mentors who are constantly infantilizing or undermining our efforts by calling us spoiled, spineless, and lazy. They tell us how lucky we are for all the resources available to us. What they don’t understand is how that makes it all the more complicates things and makes it difficult to navigate the field.

Being a trainee in the hospital is hard enough with all of the beaurocratic bullshit. I can’t stand the consultants who have this personal vendeta against any trainee or colleague outside their generation.
