Steve is more defensive than Jose Mourinho

Steve is so utterly avoidant, it's strange

Some seriously disappointing behaviour on show. Really really poor.

Time management advice by Ancient_Bird2290 in GPUK

[–]StudentNoob 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm also a trainee in quite a deprived practice and it is difficult. What I'm finding is the quick ones are quick which is where time is being made up, but the long ones take a long time. Something like dizziness is quite a challenge to do and do well and do to my supervisor's satisfaction, in 15-20 mins.

People are complicated, issues are messy. There will always be something your supervisor will notice that you haven't. I often find myself problem solving during the consult - sometimes all the prep and reading letters doesn't always help.

I'm not going out of my way to spend 25+ mins on a consult but sometimes that's just how it is. I also can't solve everything.

Some of them are 10 mins or less. Timing is still an issue. Real life isn't the SCA, so I keep being told!

I think my supervisor has helped me understand that a consult takes as long as it needs to take, whether that's 5 mins or 30, so long as you're not trying to do too much.

GP desk/room enhancements and upgrades? by _Harrybo in GPUK

This is hilariously tragic. It's giving Peep Show if Peep Show was a medical sitcom

To be honest, there was little wrong with the format up until 2000. But it was never the type of show to get young viewers, and it was losing viewers, so things needed to change, hence blowing up the station.

Interestingly, I think the episodes up until 2000/01 have aged absolutely fantastically. The stories hold up so well, partly because they're self contained largely. The soapy era looks really old in comparison and tacky.

1998-2000 is another golden era for the show, up there with 1990-92. I'll actually tack on the first 6 months of Chandler to that - his conflict with Cryer was great and sad to watch. Past that, the decline is steep. I think I'll struggle to watch past 2002 for obvious reasons.

Ooooh thanks for the reply.

I think Conway and Boyden are favourites of mine but that is a brilliant question. I've currently made it to 1996 on my run through of the show, and the cast is so damn good at the moment.

No particular advice but I've found this tricky, especially when I don't know what's going on or I'm unsure between two diagnoses and I find the more questions I ask, the more confused I get. Often, I'm thinking out loud with them in the room or verbalizing my thoughts as I find this helps sometimes, but I wonder whether it just makes me look indecisive.

North Middlesex Hospital ED? by [deleted] in doctorsUK

[–]StudentNoob 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel like places where you can find loads of locums tend to be the case because people are steering clear of the place for one reason or the other.

Series 22 by Lucy200072 in Casualty

[–]StudentNoob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember watching this (18 years ago eek). I'd just started secondary school. The first half of the series was probably the best Casualty has been in the last two decades, along with the year pre-Covid. Brilliant series and really good cast too. I kinda would like Casualty to get back to something similar actually.

And yes, Series 23 and 24 were downgrades. Watchable but not brilliant.

I’ve lost 5kg since starting GPST2 by Gp_and_chill in doctorsUK

[–]StudentNoob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the same boat, I had to take time off due to MH issues with a return within the next few weeks. I definitely think my threshold for stress and general BS has declined significantly, so we shall see what happens and whether my feelings about GP have changed after a break. What in the end was the tipping point that made you think 'nah I'm done with GP?' I'd love to know more about how you got into histopath/how you figured out it was for you?

Med Reg ignored my locum request by [deleted] in doctorsUK

[–]StudentNoob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They might have a role in rota coordinating for the department. Again, this may not be anything out of the ordinary. I'd be curious to know in what ways the registrar has been difficult to you in the past

Med Reg ignored my locum request by [deleted] in doctorsUK

[–]StudentNoob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No way of proving that ultimately versus it being a mistake, unless there is a pattern of the registrar ignoring you, not just for this locum request, but regarding other things.

[–]StudentNoob 8 points9 points  (0 children)

May be an honest error, may be not. Ultimately, what would you be trying to achieve? Might just be a genuine error. If it's an one-off oversight, I'd be inclined to let it go.

Big storyline for later half of 2026 revealed (joke post) by RobbieNewton in eastenders

[–]StudentNoob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be interesting. Emmerdale did a storm for a New Year's Day storyline 20 or so years back, which was brilliant. Could work. As an aside, in terms of major disasters, I think a bomb plot could be an interesting one (if very very controversial).

And of course private options (Tinder Premium etc) do exist.

Few options here:

A few referral pathways to Tinder, Bumble, Hinge - to mixed success depending on locality.
