May day/Worker's day: What's your best and worst job ever?

[Toby]

Hi guys,

As its International Worker's day/ Labour day/ May day, we thought we'd ask everyone about their heavenly or hellish jobs

My best job is of course this one ;), but my worst was cleaning football viewing stands. Very boring!

How about you all? What are the best and worst jobs you've ever had?

I won't comment further then

PS I loved ITU .... best of luck there

Not very efficient.... if their nurses do nothing ...apart from drink coffee...

Or it's just the proof that our preclinical emergency medicine (stay & play ) is very good. 

But to be fair: It was just on this unit like that, the other (surgical ward) team was awesome and they showed me very much - like taking blood on my own and all such things - I like that ^^

My son has quite a bit of experience treatment-wise and has had no problems at all over the years. Same here in Thailand, ok no NHS but cleanliness and care are first class

Last time I went to an NHS hospital I met a nurse from the Phillipines and she was not too impressed with our basic hygiene standards, like surgery being performed while wearing outdoor clothes.

Sadly true in a lot of hospitals these days.

Very variable standards throughout the NHS in UK...Quite proud that my hospital still maintains a hign rating (even though I no longer work there)

I recently had reason to visit a terminal cancer friend in Bolton and was appauled at the standard ofcare and cleanliness in Royal Bolton Hospital. Royal?  With all the local funding cut to the bare bones I suppose it's inevitabLe but the difference when he was moved to the Hospice was a steak contrast. Private funding. ....
