This might help you understand why female junior surgeons like me didn’t report sexual harassment at work 👇

Time for the male Spanish team to refuse to play and FIFA (Not known for its ethics, but you never know) to take action.
Condoning sexual assault (we all literally saw it happen) and then agressively persuing the victim like this is vile.
Spain football federation accuses player Jenni Hermoso of lying about kiss from its president Luis Rubiales and says it is taking legal action

"Be kind and resilient because medicine is a vocation"
actually means
"don't speak out, stop complaining (it's actually your fault, because you are weak), and suck up poor pay and conditions"

Notes: the Med Reg *kindly* agrees to take over patients care 😉
After listening to 1000s of patients, doctors & healthcare organisations in our consultation, we’ve published #GoodMedicalPractice2024. Get to know the updated professional standards for UK doctors, before they come into effect on 30 January 2024 orlo.uk/vMb9i

Paediatricians realised that Lucy Letby was on duty every time there was an “unexpected catastrophic event” that led to the deaths. Letby took out a grievance against the doctors. She won, and the consultants were forced to make a written apology to the murderer. 2/

So disheartening to see this from a consultant in the department I’m currently training in. Thankfully all our other consultants (those actively involved in acute care for our patients, unlike Dr Johnson) have been so supportive of our decision and right to strike.

All the while such stupidity persists it has to countered. Toss a coin once and you won’t know if it’ll be heads or tails (weather: will it rain next week?) but after 1000 tosses you know half will be heads (climate: longer range average trend).

By becoming increasingly incapable of being a good employer, the NHS itself has made pay its own biggest issue, by making pay the *only* reward.

Corporate relocation agencies from
🇮🇪 Ireland delivering packages and letters DIRECT to consultant picket lines this morning….
(Don’t get me started on the term Southern Ireland)
What a marketing opportunity! (But those houses prices 💯% aren’t Dublin) #ConsultantsStrike

I’m a paediatric intensive care consultant.
I did not strike yesterday although fully support my colleagues.
Instead I did my last ever night shift after 22 years in #NHS
Sorry 🇬🇧 I’m leaving for 🇨🇦 next week.
For me (and my children - the next gen) it was just too late 😔

People are making fun of this, but they have no idea what they are talking about
I followed the same routine, and now:
- My spiffwombles have reduced by 30x
- Both eyes 9.7x more voluminous
- Developmental age reduced by 35 years - I can no longer read or write (a world record)
