Every profession will try ther best to portray a certain image.
Doctors, lawyers and even teachers are well known to exaggerate on the daily stress they have to face. A possible explanation is that they want to protect the profession from infiltrators outside its "inner circle". For quite some time, new doctors come mostly from rich background (some years ago a senior doctor even lamented in a public article that too few doctors come from
HDB background).
Is anyone pointing guns at them to force them to work? The money is good so the stress must be high eh?
