I'm also a technician with the London Ambulance Service and i agree with renolds. It has been a complete and utter co*k up from start to finish. The people who are going to suffer the most are the people of london, Why should i break my balls doing a job i love when i'm not getting paid a decent working wage. Morale is at an all time low in the few years i've been in the firm and i can only see morale getting even worse. Then add on crews being taken off the road for an unpaid meal breaks. London wants a world class ambulance service (from the firms mission statement), Well i'm sorry but someone has to pay for it.
