| Comment | I really share your experience. I could write essays in response, especially having some horrific dealings with the NHS, with the worst encounters being recent and ongoing.
Also, there's a term.. Not sure, but it's related to personality clusters. It might be machiavilianisim? Certain personalities will seek high status jobs regardless of their interests. They'll want to be a police officers, even if they are anti-social and hate the general public, because people will respect them. They want to be a doctor because doctors are heros and save people and make them better. Certain kinds of people gravitate towards jobs for the sole purpose of social status. Unfortunately, these people are often socially intelligent, and are able to manipulate their way into middle and sometimes upper management.
I'm very happy to have read your comments. They're honest words I rarely hear and because of that it can make me feel more alone and I blame myself. However, more recently, people have started to share. Wether that is due to a failing NHS or more willingness to talk or both I'll never know but the one thing I do know is talking honestly and being able to compassionately listen when others are speaking is step one of addressing the problem. |
