U******u 发帖数: 5829 | 49 给爱抱怨哭诉的生物WSNV们--一个非法移民老墨的故事
我时不时来生物版看看,因为我来北美也做了10年的科研,我自己觉得我有兴趣但
没有大的出路,也不是我和我的家庭的晚年的理想归途。于是,我40岁开始做跳槽
努力,虽然勉强过了USMLE,混进了住院,但我尽了最大努力做好,近50岁时从新开
始当医生。至少,我和我家人不再为养老发愁了,这里就不说那些悬壶济世治病救
人的高尚话语了。
我就不明白,要是真对科学感兴趣,愿意献身,老哭诉什么?如果不甘心,不请愿,
那这个自由世界有得是机会,你自己去努力总有可能改变自己不满意的现状的。即

“You will spend the rest of
your life working in the
fields,” my cousin told me when
I arrived in the United States in
the mid-1980s. This fate indeed
appeared likely: a 19-
year-old illegal migrant
farm worker, I
had no English language
skills and no
dependable means of
support. I had grown
up in a small Mexican
farming community,
where I began... 阅读全帖 |
