allnurses image-inspired thread

Recently, due to some feedback I have received regarding my images being posted in some members' threads, I made a decision:

"Henceforth, I will NOT be submitting any images-cartoons, animations, or memes- in any threads, other than my own, UNLESS A MEMBER REQUESTS THAT I DO SO!"

As I have noted on many occasions, allnurses is my favorite website, and one reason why is because of the stimulating and inspiring threads and posts. I read the words and immediately see images that inspire me to create.

Having worked as a nurse for over 35 years, there is rarely a time that I cannot identify with numerous situations that other members experience and post.

Since I have made a decision not to post images as noted above, one reason being that attention may be diverted from the topic at hand, I am starting this thread.

The General Nursing forum seems to be the most trafficked forum with the greatest number of threads and posts. Hence, the majority of my inspiration comes from thus.

@Emergent recently posted something in a thread that caused me to see an image:

 "I once said that I had no goals other than to keep my job and make it to retirement." 

Emergent's humorous statement caused me to remember a question that I was once asked during a performance review, but first, I need to set up the situation with this comic:

  I was once asked during this performance review, "What do you see yourself doing in five years from now?"

And so it begins...
