The new deal although offering an 11% base pay rise, takes away the overtime for unsocialble hours after 7pm weekdays and Saturday, which could effectively amount to a 20% pay cut for doctors. It is a highly demoralised plan to force through on Junior Doctors, I can't think of any private companies who could get away with this, because the company would lose their talent. Its taking advantage of the current crop of Junior Doctors who can not seek work outside of the UK as there is only one employer. Doctors who are training now would be wise to move abroad, which conversely will cause the NHS to hire doctors from abroad often on expensive locum rates. It does seem very unfair to force through a paycut, no other public service has had this put upon on them and in the mid to long term its likely to cause staff shortages.

Recommendation for local garage to carry out service/MOT
doublesj replied to Bass12's topic in Request a Tradesperson
I know its not quite local but I would very much recommend the Test Centre close to New Cross, if your car doesn't pass you don't pay a fee and they do not do repairs on maintenance so you can trust in them being impartial. http://www.thetestcentre.co.uk/ -
sorry to say but I would really not recommend Ryan and RJS carpentry. Turned up late on all 3 days making me late for work, completed the job to a really poor standard, used work experience (!) people on the job, the doors that were hung all needed rehanging shortly afterwards as he had not allowed enough room for them to expand. Was meant to refund me for materials that weren't used but never did. I found the whole service really unprofessional. (Realised later that the recommendation from this forum was actually from his girlfriend....)

Lordship Lane Carpets - How do they stay in business?
doublesj replied to KalamityKate's topic in Request a Tradesperson
I wouldn't buy from again. The manager is quite aggressive when you question anything and he also gave me bad advice and I ended up buying some sound insulation that hardly helped at all. Shortly afterwards I saw the top insulation he sold me in B&Q at 20% of the price. -
Mugging - Hayes Grove - Monday 2nd April
doublesj replied to amos91179's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
There is some CCTV on Hayes Grove so hopefully they will be able to get some imagery of the attacker. Let's all me more vigilant and report any suspicions to police / safer neighbourhood teams, cause he probably is going to be happy for long of the pickings of a yoga bag... -
police in sainsburys car park
doublesj replied to 3 little piggies's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Since this thread had become the objective of ridicule i thought I?d write that in fact they actually arrested a suspect on suspicion of dealing crack cocaine, they apprehended him after a chase on the Hayes Grove estate. -
Did you actually see the ice cream van?

Perhaps you could stress the point about the bike's having illegally adapted exhausts that are causing high amounts of noise.
