I'm feeling nostalgic after saying my goodbyes at my previous job on Friday. Never mind that I'm incredibly excited about the new opportunity, working on, well, let's just say a large sporting event to be held in Vancouver and Whistler in 2 1/2 years. I've made some great friends and had some great experiences in the last three years, and though what I do doesn't exactly save lives, working in health care put many other things in perspective.
So forgive the sentimentality, but I dare you to watch this PSA from Sick Kids in Toronto (not where I worked, but I saw it on TV this week in the throes of my goodbyes) without getting a lump in your throat and a sense of pride in our health care workers who do save lives under less than ideal circumstances:
