Just "knocking people out"?

What is it that makes the jobs so demanding?

Keeping someone unaware of what is going on, and alive, while a surgeon assaults their body does not sound like easy work to me. It sounds like a nice option for surgery patients coampared to a shot of whiskey and your buddies holding you down for an amputation though! I am not a CRNA, but I just did a research paper on the profession. Sounds like an intense job to me, as their is no real room for error. I do not mean any disrespect to the CRNAs out their, I know I don't have experience in the field. I did enjoy doing my research paper on this field!!

i have also heard it explained as "it's not always what you do, it's what you know."

or "you dont really get paid so much for what you do, but what you know"
