I know kirstyb. Usually because of the speciality I work in we don't have a problem as most of them haven't got a clue and if they want to get through their surgical placement they make the effort. We are generally a very easy going bunch. Laugh a little too long, hard and loud though!!
Our regs and consultants are a great bunch and regularly accompany us on ward nights out etc.
One of the HOs in the last batch insisted on buying courgettes off me for silly money even though I said I don't "officially" sell them. Terms of lease etc. But not to be sniffed at. Another HO is likely to be phoning the council tomorrow to ask for a lottie. Result! Sod the medicine, grow some decent veg. The older patients love it when you tell them what you've been up to.
