And even this would make them a non-central example of physicians (and bartenders). Most doctors are heavily committed after 10+ years of education; many bartenders are not "living their dream" and expect to move on. Someone who willingly makes that swap because they've found their true calling is incomparable to the average for both careers.

- mbrameld 9y agoThe medical career field comprises more than just doctors.
- ubernostrum 9y agoThe comment I replied to specifically used the word "doctors".
