Is doing an exam by a professional like watching paint dry?

I have a friend that flies passenger jets. I've often told him how cool that is. I always wanted to fly and have done a little and had great fun. He told me " Moppy, flying a passenger plane is like driving a bus and just as boring." My question is: Do medical professionals find doing exams, pap smears and invasive things like enemas boring and just another face in the crowd? I know giving an 80 year old smelly old guy an enema can't be hot but what about the 23 year old stone cold fox getting an exam. Is it the same after doing a thousand of them?

I can also attest to the fact that flying commercially is boring. It's only fun during the take off and landing or if something goes wrong - engine failure, hydraulic problem, asymmetric flaps, engine fire, electrical problem, instrument failure....

My brother in law is a retired orthopaedic surgeon...he commented on some of his more "attractive" patients. Although he more than likely didn't get into the "good stuff". I would guess doctors notice the stone cold foxes - although most (Not our friend Larry) are professional about it and restrain themselves.

I don't think things like flaps and engine fires would be fun. More like terrifying but definitely not boring!

I have been watching TheFlightChannel for a couple of years now.

They make me not want to fly. Almost all the crashes are due to human error.

So have I, and agree about flying. The sad haunting background music they played on the older Flight Channel videos gets to me.

Not a med pro here so just a non informed opinion. I think doctors like anyone else appreciate good looking hot patients of the opposite - or even same - sex and would prefer them. They (most) still do their jobs professionally for all patients. I am amazed at how pleasant and warm they are on the other end of the spectrum. Treating the 80 year old smelly patient with the same respect as the 23 year old fox. We just had a visit where the therapist complained to us about how gross her previous patient was - cigarette smoke and slovenly (she was spraying air deodorizer in the exam room). Although I am sure she treated him with as much respect as she does all her patients. Not something I could do.

Dammit, Suzie! Now you've got me addicted to the damn FlightChannel! I can't stop watching! Add to that I'll probably never fly commercial again. You've ruined me! 😃

Love,

Doc
