This type of conversation is best had when people can't hide behind anonymity. If you don't have the courage to attach your name to your comments, maybe don't make them.
Do better. For yourselves and for your patients.

Thank god you won't be at our program. This is an online forum, nobody attaches their name to anything here, including inconsequential discussions regarding the match. You're naive to think that this isn't talked about in person. We (the seniors-chiefs) along with a lot of our attendings routinely rip on wide-eyed, nose in the air med students who think that they're morally superior because of their misguided idealism. We even had a long discussion about this at CNS this year and the 2 med students who went out to dinner with our group and obviously disagreed were very smart to stay silent and keep their noses down. The "for your patients" line preached by your superiors in med ed and on your psych rotation is completely irrelevant and getting old.
