quick question. do doctors have bosses or someone to report to? if so, how do you deal with bosses who try to "save" you from speaking, except you didn't ask for that. and how do you respond to people who randomly frame your first sentences as some kind of bad complain to jump to weird conclusions? for example, A: "I'm a manager, so i have to talk, interact, coun-" B: "you're wrong. you have to interact." here, if A doesn't counter whatever B's implying, B will succeed in portraying A as someone who just complained about having to talk as a manager, or as someone who shouldn't be a manager. And B will probably tell others that A want to be saved from speaking. Or B already told others and there's already a group effort to give A less speaking time in the name of being nice, but A didn't ask for that.
