@tryinghard265@TheBMA Hi I am a doctor three years post graduation and I am nowhere near this £80k - in fact I think I may be 10 years away from that at least with the state of training! Can you point me in the right direction? I’ve clearly been doing the wrong job!!
@DrEilidhMaria and changed my tax code for Feb onwards, and then further this April. Meaning I’ve spent the last 3 months trying to come to an arrangement with them that means I’m not losing an extra £650 a month in tax 😭 they’ve now agreed I don’t owe them £6.5k but it took a while (2/2)
@DrEilidhMaria Most of them in your account will have receipts of payment. Or I just searched in my emails for the receipts. Also beware, I did mine for the 1st time in Jan and as much as they gave me the tax relief, they also decided at that point that I owed them £6.5k(?!?!) (1/2)
@dru_jlh rejected from paeds, feeling very deflated with my whole career rn. “there’s always next year” sound, stuck in a JCF with a terrible rota in a speciality I have no interest in pursuing for the foreseeable
It's worthwhile noting that specialty training posts aren't optional - the NHS and patients need them to exist in order for health services (both public and private) to exist. This shouldn't be anything to do with negotiations.
Waving at babies is an art. Some of you aren’t real baby-wavers. Light and cheer doesn’t radiate from you. When you wave, the babies don’t laugh or smile, they keep a straight face like they don’t see you.
Everything is so broken for young doctors, especially my cohort and those immediately behind.
There isn’t a single good thing about a career in medicine (within the UK) anymore.
It’s honestly so depressing to see how much work you’ve put in, and this is your reward.

The total lack of thought around jobs vs performative “oh, we will create new med school places” is playing out as predicted
This is not a mistake
These concerns were raised by myself & others *pre-COVID*
I’d ask you to come to your own conclusions about why they are doing this*
*spoilers - it’s not for your benefit or patient care

Scotland has detected no cases of cervical cancer in women born between 1988-1996 who were fully vaccinated against HPV between the ages of 12 and 13.

@JamesHConroy@RCollEM 100% agree! I am enjoying the job and find the work challenging and stimulating, but there is noooo way I could sustain this lack of work life balance/horrific rota for more than a few months
