"Allow me to retort." Samuel Jackson AKA Jules Pulp Fiction
Wrong. Doctors are knowledge and skill. Its not enough to have the book smarts, you have to have the dexterity and judgement also to be a doctor. JUST LIKE PILOTS.
Yea, sure. A private pilot, maybe. MAYBE. Think anyone can do it?? Lets ask all the students I saw attrited out of Navy flight school while I was a student and instructor pilot. How bout the guys that don't pass 121 ground school or IOE? Or those that flunk the sim check during an interview?
Haven't seen anyone yet criticize your career. Just your judgement and gullibility concerning Kit's Cool-Aid. Personally, if I had as many responses trying to get me to see the fallacy of an opinion I posted, I would be inclined to listen. Unless, of course, you are right and so many others a wrong. But, that strikes of ego and thick headedness to me. Some of your posts are also what I would consider an attempt at flame bait. I think it was Mark Twain who said, "Better to be suspected a fool and keep silent, rather than to open your mouth and confirm it." Or words to that effect.

Wrong. Doctors go to school for an average of 7-8 years, then internship and residency, another 3-4 years. So, 10-12 years tops. Slave wages is a relative term. Out of internship and residency, as much as an RJ CA easily. My father is a doctor so I'm pretty sure I speak from a position of authority on the subject.pilotyip said:Doctors go to school for up to 20 years, work for slave wages until established in practice.
