Professional: Never Get a Second Chance...

I knew there was something up with the Chief resident and the program director. Now I know for sure that they're shady characters and I've since taken the liberty of absolving my relationship with them. From here on out, it's a matter of bip2 security as to whether or not I choose to interact with them.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still gonna do my job and do it to the fullest extent that I can manage. But they have effectively become the enemy and with the enemy, I do not have to share. With the enemy, I do not have to like. With the enemy, I do not have to positively reciprocate.

Now I go into "dialing it in" mode and take one day at a time. It's unfortunate that it has to be this way, but when no one is looking out for your best interests other than yourself, you gotta do something in the name of self preservation.I feel a bit duped and alone in that this is happening to me so far from my home, but I guess I shouldn't have been as idealistic as I was...Pham had great suggestions.

Well, I'm gonna go fight the sleep battle...
