Life in the NHS











Apparently all the ills of the world I now the fault of the middle classes. They binge drink, often having obtained some kind of 2 for 1, 3 for £10 kind deal they then go home and drink the lot in one night. Then still the worse for wear probably they, wait for it, knowingly and willingly break the law. This involves doing things like paying people for work they have done, ‘cash in hand’, or maybe stealing the odd pen and paper clip from work, and even perhaps who knows eating an apple while driving (of course this is not to be done after binge drinking because that is proper law breaking and is extremely dangerous and not to be condoned).

Who are these middle classes? I was born into what could be described as a working class home, old labour (not that you would know it from how my tory brothers have turned out). But is nursing in the 21st century working class, and anyway I work  on the dark side, lets face it not many managers could be described as working class. Also, I now don’t just have the one degree, I have 2. So maybe they mean me and people like me.

I have to agree to being guilty to a) partaking of more than one glass of wine in a sitting and b) paying cash for my trees to be chopped down last year. Does that make me a bad person? Or is the real crime to be kind of middle classed!

I everyone paid cash to contractors there’d be no money to pay for public services e.g. nurses! Yes, avoiding tax does make you a bad person.
