  1. The fact that the climber posted that video tells me he is oblivious to it being all his fault and he by extension what a dick it makes him look. To not see all that I can only presume he’s somewhere on the spectrum
  2. They lost me the day they bent over backwards pandering to the hse over the double rope fiasco. Talk about sell your own industry out
  3. I was vaguely aware of it but hadn't really looked into exactly what it does. I like the idea of it, but yeah it really needs everyone on it or no one
  4. No one signed up for inflation, that’s an irrelevant argument, we are all faced with the same thing. as for enticing new staff, well perhaps if nurses stopped whinging so much young ones might be more tempted to take on the career
  5. The country has a long standing love affair with the NHS and it’s nurses. They are risking throwing this all away, but the NHS is probably going to completely collapse anyway; and probably about time too. next few years probably won’t be the best time to get ill, but hopefully after that we will have something good to work with again
  6. Too much is made of nurses. Yes we need them not that doesn’t mean they get to hold us to ransom. If that’s their attitude perhaps they are better off getting a different job. They are not as overworked as they make out either. Go spend a day in a hospital and see how many of them are standing around not really achieving much, or 3 or 4 of them sitting behind a desk laughing and giggling at something on their phones. Perhaps it’s just because I’m from an environment that if we are not moving we are not working, but I certainly don’t see hard work going on. the fastest you see a nurse moving is when they are leaving for home at the end of their shift
  7. If you want the answer to why we are not taking seriously as professionals just spend an hour on various social media channels and look at how some people within the industry portray themselves, then you have your answer. Probably these same people who are complaining we aren't taken seriously as an industry 😁
  8. Reminds me of something I’d read in the guardian from some witless journalist trying to be clever. Whilst he might have made a few valid points he also makes some ridiculous ones and the whole tone of it is a kick in the teeth to something like 30% of the industry. I thought the aa seemed to be making good amends over the years getting rid of the ‘them and us’ reputation they always had, but the fact they published this shows the divide is still there more than ever. Hugely disappointing stuff from our ‘industry representatives’, and as for the author… most of his current clients were likely freelancers at some stage in their careers!
  9. Nailed it more or less. I'm going with 5 glasses of rosé though.
  10. Just lol is the only reply I can think to this
  11. As the voice of the uk Arb industry, did the AA at any point actually fight this or merely look for concessions? Simple yes or no answer would be great
  12. I have the answer. Mass depopulation. Its THE only solution. All these stupid summits are just pissing in the wind and done only to make it look like they're making an effort. They know the real score. Too bad theres not a vaccine or something that could humanely depopulate the world somehow.
