Boooo.... Pantomime season is here! I left the private sector beacause I had six different contracts in five years. No job security, unable to plan for the fututre, found it nigh on impossible to get a mortgage. When I returned to the NHS I had a greater sense of security and was able to get on with my life: house, family etc.. I think every biomed over a certain age should return to the NHS to finish off their careers in a safe and secure working environment. Sort of payback for their formative training. Perhaps we should set up biomed retirement villages near to major hospitals and carry on working until we drop.
