@BBCNews Junior Dr in A&E, I already work 1 in 3-4 weekends (2 weekends most months). I love my job but I also love seeing my husband. I love my hobbies (they help prevent burnout). Not mentioning time to food shop, do washing, clean the house, rest. How much more do you want us to work?
Despite little mainstream media publicity (apart from that very biased BBC article, disappointing journalism imo), the public was very much onside at the picket lines! Happy horn honking, people asking for photos, it was wonderful to see!#JuniorDoctorsStrike
@ewan_stephenson It was very cute how excited they were!
It did make me sad though; imagine how rare positive feedback must be for them to be so excited about it.
Hoping to change that trend one student/colleague at a time
Told 2 medical students I wanted their email address to give a green card (way of giving positive feedback at Leeds Uni); they screamed like I'd just given them Beyoncé tickets. It was cute, but we really need to normalise giving positive feedback to students
To the legend who helped me find my fuel cap after I dropped it like a numpty when filling up on my way to work, I hope that #roadkarma is good to you, works lets you off early and you have a great weekend! #faithinhumanityrestored
We see that @SteveBarclay has told @BBCR4today programme he is meeting with doctors later today.
Actually he cancelled the 9am meeting we agreed so he could do media, and a further meeting is not yet agreed.
Hopefully it will be soon.
I love how many patients seem to think I'm a nurse even after introducing myself as a doctor and yet a kid in the lift yesterday managed to figure that I'm a doctor with no introductions
Fantastic morning of in-situ peads sim in HRI @ChftEd great work by all involved especially the students nurses on their first day at the Trust & our new Simbabys first outing. 👏 #SimulationRocks
Britain’s decision to wage war on Afghanistan, occupy it, & destabilise the region, means we have a special duty to those fleeing the country today.
My letter to Priti Patel, calling for her to welcome Afghan refugees & secure an amnesty for Afghan asylum seekers already here:
After everything that's happened in 2017, Val and Paul helping eachother on the Christmas Special of GBBO is what we all needed 😍 #GBBO#faithinhumanityrestored
