      More residents finishing yesterday and new interns starting Monday, so here’s another of my #tips4newdocs: Speak/be nice to EVERYONE you work with- not just the docs/ nurses. Janitors, cafeteria workers, and administrative staff often feel ignored by us, but can save your butt!

      One of my most memorable moments when named SG was the goodbye reception @EskenaziHealth held. There were more “support staff” there than clinical ones- a 2hr line! So many of them said, I’ll never forget you, because you always said hi to me. A little kindness goes a long way!

      Then why don't you listen to the thousands of #vape users who just try to get you to see the SCIENCE behind #safe #vaping? Seriously dude, practice what you preach! #SafeVaping #SaferNicotine #VapingSavesLives

      Greg, a big problem today is people forgot you can disagree without being disagreeable. You suggest the fact that the data/ science leads me to a different conclusion than you means I’m not nice. But I’ve met w vape advocates and been far nicer than you/ others have been to me.

      Nonetheless I will still try to respectfully help people understand my priority of #noecigs4kids, and hope that my extended hand will eventually be accepted vs slapped away. It can take a while, but kindness usually wins out! 🤝

          I agree with you in theory about #noecigs4kids. However, 1) taking it away from adults is a public health LOSS, and 2) what if those kids are already #smoking? At what age does #harmreduction become a player?

          ... because let's face it. It's much easier to sneak a marlboro out of dad's cigarette pack than it is to steal his #vaping mod. Promoting #Vaping protects the kids by adults not having #cigarettes readily available for kids to pilfer.
