yeah

I think they need a hand - an ex medical director turned up to lend a hand in A+E and is now dead
so I should stop being rude about all medical directors

and the others

Remember the young are relatively spared - my nephew had it and has gone back to work in A+E - and DIDNT give it to the live in lover !

[emmie]

i shall probably be fast asleep, but i do think they are doing a wonderful job,

[Bobbisox1]

The clapping might wake you em, lol

[royfromaus]

No.

[emmie]

i have some of the worst neighbours, the ones above me are truly awful. as to the rest they are mostly students

[emmie]

so probably not, but as i said my thoughts are with them.

[Peter Pedant]

All the medical director said to us - - was
you're doing a crap job why dont you work harder and for nothing? (*)

and then wondered why we were demoralised and our productivity was low - he should read Mgt 101 - dont swear at the staff ? ( if you want them to work )
It wouldnt have crossed his mind

(*) just like in real time the med dr of OXford - why wont the medical students turn up and risk for lives? and do you know - they want paying for being skivvies

Yep

[Peter Pedant]

hey the pres of the royal college of anaesthetists mused

a nighbour had said "oh god you are medical students and come and go at all times of the night - we all thought you were prostitutes !"

well really = she must have been tiddly to tell us that !


oh and Barts leddies used to tend to take flats near - Violet Kray - yes Violent Violet because the Kray twins - her dear children - would keep order in the surrounding area and it was a nayce area of london

No. Doesn't make me any less appreciative of the absolutely brilliant job our front-line NHS staff are doing.

[douglas9401]

While clapping might be nice it would be appreciated even more if you could help by humping some of the tonnage at the delivery point. :-)

[maggiebee]

No

[anneasquith]

Unfortunately, the spontaneity of last weeks big clap will not be repeated. I hope I’m wrong though.

[Neveracrossword]

No.

[Apc2604]

No. I would be standing out in the pitch black alone with not another sole within sight. But I wouldn't anyway.

[Canary42]

No. But like emmie, I think they do a wonderful job. But isn't it odd than when the country is in distress, the more poorly-paid come to the rescue, then once it's all over, they're ignored again - remember 2017.

[royfromaus]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Barmaid]

No

[Bobbisox1]

roy if this is so boring, don't answer there's a good chap as I couldn't give a rats arris to be honest and if you are in aus , you should be asleep instead of being on here:-)

[Spicerack]

Canary loves that clip, shoe-horns it into every thread.
If any of you have bothered to listen to it, nobody's cheering, Lol.
