All I can say is...you have my sympathy. It must be very hard to keep motivated when dealing with such dross. And I believe our management are rather more supportive than yours (though I'm saying this as someone who has never had a complaint against them....I reserve the right to change my mind). And as for the quiet life..........working in Newham????? I don't want to depress you, but I'm writing this 7 hours into a shift..........we've nearly seen a patient, but not quite.
