The profession that keeps people talking

So what do you do? Are you studying?

Oh no, I’ve just started working.

Oh, whereabouts?

In the hospital.

Wow, cool. As a nurse/doctor?

No, as a dietitian.

Woa, DIETITIAN? That’s so cool. So what do you do on a daily basis?

Main perception of dietitians…to help ppl DIET! so you help ppl lose weight huh? well technically not just that!

Do you plan meals for people? So you tell people what to eat and what not to eat…So do you follow yoru own advice?

[…and it goes on forever!!]

Like seriously, why don’t people react the same for other professions?

What I hate most is when they eyeball you from top to bottom to see if you’re “fit” to be a dietitian.

Oh wells…
