haha, you've certainly got some good come backs hick,
dont get me wrong, saving lives is definitely not a game to me,
maybe I just watch too much House (sarcastic doctor series on Channel Ten for those less fortunate who don't know what i'm talking about...) and think that everything can be summed up with a nice little reference to something totally unrelated, say, cucumbers for example...
As for your comment about volunteers being paid, then yes you are correct, and they do become staff.
As for running off and joining mets instead, no, because not always practical because some places would only have cfs, and therefore those unlucky volunteers don't have the option.
as for professor footy, can't say i have done a doctorate at university or whatever you need to become a professor, only honours sorry...
sorry if i offended, was not intention of mine to get you angry, just trying to add my opinion to an open forum, and help people see a topic from different points of view.
it is great to hear others opinions and if i cop some flack from ppl for now every now and then, for every person to abuse me, there is probably 2 or 3 sitting back thinking, well, hadnt thought about it from that perspective before...
