Methinks some very heavy pruning needs to be done at Management level, many are just not needed, how they justify their salery I havn’t a clue, and if truth be told, I bet they can’t either.

I wonder if they stood all the managers shoulder to shoulder along the coast of UK whether they would stretch around it’s entire length? They would make enough wind power (hot air) by staying there? 😡
Likewise I wonder if the competent clinical staff (ethical doctors and nurses devoid of political unionised bias) would turn Aneuryn Bevan’s dream back into a practical reality, while the managers are all blowing off hot air?

This is the BBC’s Radio 7 broadcast with Jim your friendly afternoon …

Normal service has resumed after an inside job assessment of the foibles of the NHS.
“This is the BBC’s Radio 7 broadcast with Jim your friendly afternoon dissection of the country’s most burning issues”
Thanks for your return Jim:D

… And normal service is resumed! 🙂

Welcome back.

There was a time a nurse would not be recruited or dismissed for tattoos

Hi Ben, I.M.H.O. I think they should give you your own personal nurse to go home with you There was one in there who was my one to one nurse and she………………………………………………………..Why should I go public on this?.
However, suffice it to say she had 4 tatoos, and I saw every one:eek:

There was a time a nurse would not be recruited or dismissed for tattoos as they aren’t good examples to set for people who give advice to patients ie nurses (tattoos are medically frowned on for clinical reasons).Now they wear make up, false eyelashes (drop in to your wound dressing), false nails, silicone implants, (may even be TVs, quick check by the old forces medical verification – “cough now please ” while the nuts are squeezed hard ), body jewellery, etc

As for not going public about your private pole/lap dancer (oh sorry nurse) that’s being a spoil sport.;)

A Hospital Chef was taking loads of food into this room, which was eventualy visited by no less than 15 “High up managers”.
The object of this, was to see if a new range of food was palatable for the patients.
I would have loved to have asked them how many patients had complained about the current food, management, pure waste of money go hand in glove with each other.

Managers in all business (more so in the NHS) are a complete waste of space in this day and age of highly trained (in most cases) highly qualified teams of employees.
The word manager is like a red rag to a bull in my case. Never needed any until I came in to my recent undergraduate student survival job. Awful time wasters and as you say they could neither justify what they do or tell anyone the %age they contribute each day, week, month or year to the business’s productivity or revenue (just bleed it instead):mad:

Hi ThreeSpool. Thanks for you get well wishes. As for the Cooper “S”, the ONLY reason I didn’t get one is because the Insurance was absolutely stupid money, and I refuse to pay inflated Premiums due to young idiots who thinking they a N. Mansell, wrap their cars off and make a claim.
Plus Agism most definately comes into it, yet I would like to go on Top Gear, cos I bet you a pound to a ton of the proverbial, I wouldn’t be anywhere near the bottom of the list.on their lap, which these so called Celebs get to go on.
In fact, it’s one of my moans, getting behind some old git, in his car, doing 40 in a 60, and being so close up an HGVs backside, they can’t see if it’s clear enough to overtake.
O.M.G. Getting to sound like I used to,

Jim.

Hi Ben, It’s great to be back,trouble is, I have to go back in again next Monday. They can’t let us old gits be blamed for bed blocking:D and thats why I was let go yesterday. I.M.H.O. I think they should give you your own personal nurse to go home with you There was one in there who was my one to one nurse and she………………………………………………………..Why should I go public on this?.
However, suffice it to say she had 4 tatoos, and I saw every one:eek:
