I don't want to seem like I've had a total sense of humour failure, because actaully your first post did make me laugh, but it is a bit of a dated stereotype to think that a doctor can't be a fashionable woman with a personality.

Sadly, it still surprises people of all ages and backgrounds when their doctor is a young woman and I still get called nurse every day. Although your nickname is lighthearted it does reflect the belief that doctors have to be stuffy men in suits.

I don't dress glamourously for work, it wouldn't really be appropriate for the area I work in, but I'd like to think I have a personality. I certainly know and work with lots of dynamic, fashionable, charismatic and interesting women who also happen to be doctors.

Annaj, it is very true that people are surprised to see a young dynamic woman working as a doctor. I should know better than to quip about it. I used to work as an accountant in the city, and was often faced with surprised looks from people who had assumed I was a PA - so it happens in other industries too.

I'll stick to being an ex-accountant, now Mum, who must admit to feeling more than slightly jealous when faced with the lovely Dr Anu looking fabulous while I sit covered in baby sick/food, wearing whatever clothes I picked up off the floor that morning, looking like I've been dragged through a hedge backwards. Sigh.

Oh dear, serious wire crossing giggirl.

I don't work at DMC and I'm certainly not the fabulously glamourous Dr Bhatia. I work in a not very glamourous hospital far enough away from ED that I'm not likely to ever encounter any forumites.

I was just making the point that it shouldn't really be a surprise to find a female doctor who is also fashionable and has a personality.

      Real Estate Agent Advice

      By beansprout · Posted

      Really don’t  know why people don’t sell their property by them selves…or at least start that way… not difficult if a freehold house, might be  more complicated if leasehold flat but with a good solicitor doing his work, should be fine. With many people using internet, plenty of people put  looking and numerous  other ways to reach target audience. Was a relocation agent for  years both in sales and letting through London and home  counties.. ie acquiring properties for individuals. Same goes for rental/ letting agents.. tenancy agreements are standard, totally agree that various laws governing terms  are updated but nowadays the majority of estate agents in letting and I assume sales  belong to a recognised body so really one can let oneself. Tenancies are free on line or can be purchased for a nominal sum. What do they do for their commission in both instances? Introduce tenant or buyer, in theory check out references and produce a tenancy agreement, agree amendments, sign by both parties, collect deposit and rent. Organise inventory check in and that is it. And then if you decide to pay them for management of property an additional fee in the hope that they will use approve contractors for all repairs in a suitable time frame for tenant. Was a post earlier or towards last year not sure on here or Facebook covering this point and lack of management from agent for months. I hasten to add that not all sales or rental agents behave in this manner but certainly some in good old ED. was definitely a posting about a well known agent in the village who was “slow” concerning the above. From memory, change if staff and just got buried…in my book totally unacceptable excuse. That is why they have managers in each estate agent to overseas and stay abreast of sales and lettings. Can’t pass the buck…and most companies irrespective of type of industry have a leaving policy and hand over policy produced normally by HR..Same could be said for consultants in  new build sales but normally they are  responsible and accountable from start to finish ie monitoring sale  the whole way, have to produce weekly reports to head office  plus  follow up on all enquiries. Been their as well over my career.
