Doctors are human. Human beings make mistakes. Doctors make mistakes all the time. But many doctors have become so resistant to criticism that it becomes hard for them to acknowledge their mistakes and change their behavior. That's where a peculiar professional handicap comes into play.
Children learn how to beg, borrow, and steal at an early age.
They also learn how to lie and bully other people. Once they have achieved a certain amount of success with such techniques, they take great pleasure in wielding their power over others. Power has an intoxicating effect on a person's ego. And when children become adults, the dysfunctional forms of behavior they learned in childhood tend to blossom in the workplace. Children who were pampered and spoiled by their parents turn into adults who expect co-workers to pick up after them.
