[quote=Anonymous]I am a doctor, and I agree completely. I am very empathetic with the tragedies I deal with every day at work, and it does make me relatively less empathetic towards others who complain for small things. But someone had an interesting comment about the sort of person who is rational in an emergency - we are trained to not be emotional even when doing CPR, telling someone they have cancer, all other dreadful situation. We can't afford to be so emotional that we can't function; even after a code blue, I still have to go back to work and take care of other patients. I guess that can look like lack of empathy, but I really cry (later) about all the sad things I see.[/quote]
