I had a nurse friend, she said they were not permitted to cut patients nails because that was regarded as a surgical procedure so a doctor had to do it. There's a small example of a total waste of cash.
I agree re the repair work needing to be done. Can't have the place falling to pieces. A stitch in time and all that.... Although I bet 'in time' was 20 or 30 years ago.Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyoneComment

A waiter does not have to deal with cleaning up bodily fluids. A waiter can kick out someone who is being a total arse. A waiter seems a customer for a few minutes in total and then they leave , not hour after hour, day after day.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Let us remember that nurses do not carry much responsibility and they are paid well enough as they are. A lot of them need a kick up the arse. The NHS needs reforming not feeding.
Some nurses are now managers and others do the job of GPs. I know both and am extremely thankful for the latter."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

A waiter will have to mop up puke if a diner over indulges. Someone cleans the Toilets at restaurants. If its length of stay that is important then we can include hotel staff.
There are more people wanting to be nurses than places so its obviously not that bad. I'm all for paying nurses fairly but they need to remember that many other staff do harder or more unpleasant jobs for a lot less money.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
