Has it occurred to you that the unit has a schedule to keep of assigned nurses? It's not like firing the parlour-maid because you think she's a little too appealing to the males in the house.<br />Okay, I just read down a little further to John's comment about the relationships helpful to rehab...But I still am astonished at such a request, unless the nurse is in some way actively damaging the patient.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12448915588546829312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-59927802051736804082018-05-27T08:01:00.182+00:002018-05-27T08:01:00.182+00:00Rachel, hi.

From what I gather, having done a little bit of online "research", forums actively invite discussions, diverse opinions; whereas, or so it appears, (some) blogs don't. I'll pick up on the subject on my blog sometime in the next few days. Hope you'll join me then, with your own opinion on and experience of blogging - the good, the bad, the ugly, the funny and the downright ridiculous.<br /><br />UUrsulahttp://bitchontheblog.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-87993443289967789052018-05-27T06:10:03.713+00:002018-05-27T06:10:03.713+00:00I love this post.

One day one of the women who works at a neighbouring business told me that she didn't really care to be served by him. I took great delight in claiming him as my son and that shut her up! Most of the dear old ducks who come in adore him - he gives excellent customer service and treats them all like the most important person in the world, and they often comment that they miss him when he isn't there.MrsC (Maryanne)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14440723067459232998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-54082887662887253382018-05-26T09:23:00.966+00:002018-05-26T09:23:00.966+00:00Sometimes you have to remember that this is a blog...Sometimes you have to remember that this is a blog, not a forum.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-72354364820833795362018-05-26T01:45:39.647+00:002018-05-26T01:45:39.647+00:00I just read this again (3rd)time and I loved it ev...I just read this again (3rd)time and I loved it even more.<br />Notes From ABroadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202279303962539035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-33253016737914843882018-05-25T20:07:54.266+00:002018-05-25T20:07:54.266+00:00My grandmother used to be incredibly racist [and q...My grandmother used to be incredibly racist [and quite vocal about it too].

Regardless of their sex/colour/age/orientation (I wouldn't know or care about that). Our NHS, despite being under enormous pressures, is brilliant and we have no complaints at all. Good on you John, especially if you were quaking in your boots, prejudice should not be tolerated.Soozehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03762391472811785736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-32177586972400935702018-05-25T17:21:35.816+00:002018-05-25T17:21:35.816+00:00Heh, heh.
