Standards in the NHS now. I run a busy clinic all day, I've been working here for well over 43 years and quite honestly the behaviour of people at work is really alarming. I won't go into too much detail as its outing but for example yesterday my fully qualified assistant was supposed to be helping me. In the middle of clinic she gets a long piece of couch roll out, puts it on the clinic worktop and starts peeling oranges and chopping food and eating it, buttering crackers, getting ham out. In effect having a bloody buffet as I'm seeing patients in the same room.
I said very sharply get that food out of here - what are you doing? We have a fully equipped kitchen two doors up. If you are hungry excuse yourself for 5 minutes and go and eat something IN THE KITCHEN.
Something like this happens every single day.
Extreme over familiarity with patients, advising them to sue the hospital for example - we don't get involved at our level. Shrieking with laughter, being very inapproriate.
I feel like I'm in a mad house.
The worst offenders don't get reprimanded or sacked. I can't wait to retire quite honestly.
