Dr. Morris, mind if I give you feedback?
Here we go.
Control your emotions.
Can we not do this?
Act like a leader...
Oh, come on. All the criticism, the bullying. That's how you get people to respect you?
You have been storming around, sulking all day. You are an attending physician, not a toddler. Did you think that I was finished?
You know what, lady? Shut up! [long pause] We have been through hell here the last few weeks, but somehow we're getting through it and you know how? [voice rising] By showing up here every day and dedicating ourselves to this work. [shouting] You don't know us! You don't know this place! And the last thing we need is for some stranger to come in here and tell us how it's done!
[very softly] I know that you lost a friend. [pause] And I'm sorry about that, but we will never have a conversation like this again. Understand?
