It wasn't even raining Kryton. I was all ready to take comedy photos and everyfink!
You dont get many perks working in the NHS, take them when you can. (DOnt forget your 10% off at Morrisons too)
I've been at NHS times and Non NHS. Actually found it quieter to go at non NHS times. Interesting watching the behaviour between NHS times/Non NHS. NHS times no one really sticks to social distancing, because lets face it you dont really at work. Its also very pleasant and people chat and are civil with each other.
If you remember way back when this was about NHS staff working a full day, and then going shopping and finding no stock left. Hopefully now all the idiots have realised that supermarkets still have products they can still get everything they need.
I was outside Aldi one morning and a bloke 90+ turned up. All the NHS staff queuing up wanted to let him in the shop ahead of them, but the management refused.
I just walk to the front of the queue, shouting 'I'm an NHS Hero', even if I'm only buying a jazz mag, cider and a Twix.
If it's a really long queue I wear scrubs, push an obs trolley and threaten people with a rectal thermometer. 😀
and threaten people with a rectal thermometer. 😀
Round here, that's not a threat, that's a pickup line.
Does it work?
Asking for a friend.
In Edinburgh....
Our local supermarket at the start was comical, they had NHS one morning for first hour, and a vulnerable persons hour. MY wife who is an NHS consultant, went shopping alone as my daughter is classed as disabled, took her DLA proof of her being disabled etc, was told that she had to take my daughter as the vulnerable person had to be there!! She then asked if they didn't kind of defeat the object of it all?
She then showed her NHS ID, was told the NHS hour was yesterday, so she'll have to wait til it opens to public in an hour (at this point queue for public was already 2 hours long), so she told them to stick their shopping up only where a proctologist will find it.........
So to clear some things up, there was no queue, no rain, no NHS id.
I suspect there was no moral dilemma either. It may even turn out that the op is not even a proper nurse.
