Have I touched a nerve? To a lot of people, work is not the most important thing in life!

It is usually within management that this attitude originates.

No no. In your experience it has. Not mine.

working in the nhs, you do what is in the best interest of the patient, and sometimes this may involve giving up a lunch hour to improve knowledge and/or skills which will improve patient care - not everything is learnt by going on a specific course.

Lol! Don't make me laugh! Since when does the NHS work in the best interest of the patient? And the staff at one particular hospital near to me couldn't give a monkeys.

Not at all. As I said before, people like you are easy to spot in interviews, it's not an issue for me in the workplace. It's just eye opening for me to meet people like you here that feel like achieving nothing is an achievement in itself!

work isn't the most important thing. Many things are more important. It doesn't mean if I have to make my workplace miserable for myself and for the people around me.

You're only making yourself to be a complete knob - 'working class scum?!' As opposed to a silver plated spoon case like yourself?

obviously, i can't speak for everyone, but having spent 20 years working in the nhs at many different trusts there are many damn-hardworking people who go way beyond what is expected......just because.....
