lot of people throw statistics about without knowing/noticing what the differences are and when one value is more relevant than another.
What are you trying to say, you have mortally wounded me, I think you will find it was me throwing the stats about and I do happen to know the difference.
not to mention quoting incomes without the accompanying qualifying information such as costs of living etc
jesus toys back down a bit, im not attacking you
I'm just saying that there is always a lot of confusion with these things and that people need to make sure they understand the figures they are reading and the relevance.
I have not, anywhere, at any point said that i disagree with *you* or that *you* do not understand anything.
All I'm saying is that 'average' income on its own, without supporting information is not a good comparison.
you have mortally wounded me
Sorry this was supposed to be amusing irony...
Apparently reactionary is my recreation.
if that was ironic by implying you were not mortally wounded in order to counter your perception of me trying to wound you = ironic fail, since I was not trying to wound anyone 🙂
Indeed. Failure is how I like to spend the bits of spare time I have left after being reactionary.
tbh I wasn't sure otherwise I'd have flamed you even harder...
1) Apologies again.
2) shake?
as i'm lolling my way thru this what am i seeing? a foundation year 1 doctor whining about his salary? really!! in august if all months. as a large part of my job is shepherding these precious little gems into a position where they don't manage to damage someone, get off their tired post student backsides to do some actual graft and generally propel them into their second year with some semblance of a skill set (and a bit of a bump in salary) i'm frankly astonished they get away with earning this much.
i will point out to any medical types who want to take umbrage that looking after the fy1s is one of my favourite bits of my job. but it doesn't disguise the fact that, if you're that wee bit older, your training system was waaaay better and you were actually in a position to be of some use whereas the current mob are woefully underprepared for what's about to engulf them.
oh and the nineteen grand thing. if my daughter said she wasn't getting out of bed for that i'd smack her round the head. but she doesn't and she does.

apologise? apologise! this is STW don't you know? We don't do any of that saying sorry nonsense. the correct response is to start an escalating flame war until TJ wades in to distract us all with a better target.
Anyway, us Devonians need to stick together 😉
it helps the Grockles target you
Sorry to drag this one up again guys...
