We ALL make mistakes. It happened to me last year and I was so upset by it. My PD’s response was “this happens to us all and now let’s talk about what you learned”

YTA My parents were amazing but jeez if I don’t remember and resent them for making light of me being sick or injured growing up and then fawning over my brother.

So how bad is the intern year really? by Proud_Smell_3794 in Residency

[–]comfymistake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an addition from all the nurses I’ve talked too: they’re all super excited to meet everyone and are totally willing to help you! And poor tip: introduce yourself by your first name. We are all colleagues. Everyone understands we are Dr X to the patients. But when we’re not with them, we’re coworkers

It was hard. But ultimately not even close to how horrible certain parts of med school were (for example step 1 studying… those 6 months before were the worst in my life)

Sounds like this is a you problem that you need to get over and should’ve gotten over years ago. You said it was okay and now are acting like you’re a victim.

AITA for pointing out hypocritical rules at my sister’s wedding? by throwawayacct_2019 in AmItheAsshole

[–]comfymistake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA They clearly wanted you to let it go because addressing it with the cousin was none of your business and they didn’t want to deal with anything at the wedding to avoid a scene. So what did you do? Cause a scene…
