Yeah thats part of being in a job that has mortality as a part of it

If you’re in the critical path of someone else living or dying, you need to be prepared to take the same risks

I’ve done it myself and was willing and enthusiastic about putting my life at risk for something I thought at the time was worth dying for.

If you’re not willing to die to save/help someone else then you’re really just committed to your own survival which imo is just narcissism
