Much of John's adult life has been spent working in societies in decay. This has taken a toll on him, and though he would not describe himself as jaded or cynical, people who don't know him well might mistakenly see his pragmatism as such. He objects to the disdain most humans (and others) have toward the Federation's historical "enemies," namely the Romulans and the Cardassians. Having seen both societies in the aftermaths of being nearly wiped out, he sees them as suffering peoples worthy of compassion. Given the quite different attitude and experiences most others, especially Starfleet people, have, he tends to keep quiet whenever the subject of either race comes up for debate. | |||

At nearly forty years old, John is beginning to grow tired of constantly working in such despairing places, doing such thankless and soul-crushing work. He is starting to understand why doctors start seeking out cushy jobs in well-equipped hospitals and suburban practices when they reach his level of tenure in the practice. He hopes the work he is doing for Starfleet in general, and aboard the ''Garuda'' in particular, will be an acceptable compromise between the parts of him that want to continue the same work, and those that want him to slow down. | |||
