And I'd worked in psych before and I was ready to do it.

And I was hired to be a program director.

And I was a little naive to the ways of for-profit healthcare.

And so I'm the social worker on the unit.

I have all the patients, the discharge dates, and we go to our morning admission and discharge meetings.

So the CEO looks at me and says, okay, David, who do you have on your list?

I said, well, you know, here's our patients.

Here's when they were admitted.

And then he said, well, what's their insurance?

I said, well, they have this insurance, which covers 60 days.

So then he goes down to his thing, goes out and puts a discharge date out 60 days.

And I said, well, we don't, I said, sir, respectfully, we don't know that he needs 60 days.

He goes, no, no, he has 60 days of insurance.

His discharge date is 60 days from now.

And I remember, you know, and I just sat back and thought, oh, I have fallen into something I didn't fully appreciate.

Yeah.

Then I looked around and I was young in my career and I looked at people who had been in that system three, four, five years.

And I thought, if I stay here,

I'm going to be just like them.

You can't swim in the water and not get wet.
