Disadvantages of being a contractor sometimes....

Is that based on a guess again?

My statement is based upon how my wife was treated both times she gave birth, my wife's best friend's stories about her mother's treatment (that link sounds more tenuous than it is), how my wife was treated when I took her to hospital with suspected breakages in her hand after being hit with a sword whilst sparring and how my lodger was treated when I took him there when he got his jaw broken.

In all but one of the above examples I personally witnessed the events I was refering to in the above posts.

I get this but seems a strange way to say one system is fooked because only 5% of things go wrong but the other system is ok as it it goes right 95% of the time.

Surely they are both at fault 5% of the time or both good 95% the time. Seems a bit unfair to slate one for the 5% and praise the other for 95%.

Yep. Seems to be the case. Like I said the nurses all seem genuinely caring but they've got a lot to put up with the way the system works....

Do not project your own behaviour on others we are not all like you.

Asking a question is "projecting your behaviour"?
