T...I'm glad to hear you're reporting this.<br /><br />The thing I don't get is why it takes such a huge screwup before somebody gets punished. If he's come into work drunk before, shouldn't he have been fired the very first time? What is it about the medical culture that lets crappy practitioners stick around to put more people in danger?<br /><br />Seriously, if you've got any insight I'd really like to read it. This seems like one of those things they won't teach us in school.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16076856042658008396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833607.post-81098220692399579312010-09-05T10:56:37.098-07:002010-09-05T10:56:37.098-07:00. . .
