I must say I am in agreement with you in regards to the animosity between the AA and CRNA professions. What a disappointment! As someone considering these professions for reasons other than being motivated solely by selfish gain, I must say that these posts hardly represent yourselves or your professions well. While I understand the politics and intricacies of corporate health care there is no need to stoop to verbal mood slinging. You are supposed to be care givers for God sake! You are acting like politicians the week before an election. If this is what I have to look forward to from you people as a whole perhaps I should stay in pediatric oncology nursing. We learn to APPRECIATE things a little more when surround by the children in our unit!
