@PeteEtchells Sorry to hear that. Fingers crossed the end of the bank holiday means you’ll have a better chance to talk to a doctor and get some answers 🤞

@ZJAyres Not feedback per se, but when I first started as a teaching associate full time, I was interacting with a student when they said to me ‘so when are you going to get a real job?’.
Six years and one promotion later, I still know it’s a real job that I thoroughly enjoy.
