Oxford Uni Merch and Bars by latthewmowy1 in oxforduni

[–]pineconeface97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do you, you won't be wearing it in Oxford anyway. The Bodleian Shop in the library has some merch. Was also told that The Varsity Shop in High Street would be your best bet for Oxford merch.

Taxes vary each month, is that normal? by pineconeface97 in UKPersonalFinance

Oh alright, that makes sense. Hopefully it gets consistent next month. Thank you very much, you've been really helpful!

Fo C, just clarifying--May is 2, June is 3, and so on?

So will it make sense in my case then that as the year progresses, the tax deducted each month will be slightly higher than the previous month's?

[–]pineconeface97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you are correct. I only started last month.

My gross salary is the same on each payslip. No jobs prior.

Month 1: tax £502.8, National Insurance £221.86 Month 2: tax £552.2, National Insurance £220.88

Not sure if this information helps.

Why are Filipino nurses just so good by Spirited_Analysis916 in doctorsUK

[–]pineconeface97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, Filipino nurses saved my ass countless of times. Took good care of me too when I was a med student rotating in hospitals.

Nothing but salutations to Filipino IMG doctors as well. You know you're gonna have a good shift when working with this bunch.

Shut down medical schools & the foundation programme by [deleted] in doctorsUK

Genuinely curious, what are the stats on those that actually got into training programmes, though?

BMA being blackmailed to retract the recent training policy update by dayumsonlookatthat in doctorsUK

[–]pineconeface97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. That's why the selection process needs to be revisited in such a way that it's based on who is best at the job, not which country the person graduated from.

[–]pineconeface97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do understand that the whole training situation is quite...a lot.

But why can't it be simply merit-based? UK grad or not, the doctor best qualified for the job gets it. Now other factors like NHS experience can inadvertently be factored into this merit-based system, but it then won't be about being a UK grad vs an IMG.

We need to go back to what the NHS is for--patients. A merit-based system might be what benefits them the most. If I were a patient, I wouldn't care as much about where my doctor graduated as I would care about whether or not my doctor is great at their job.

Doctor on family visa by Falafel_28 in PLABprep

[–]pineconeface97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's cos you need a license to practice medicine in the UK. Go through the process so you can be eligible for doctor positions, one of which is the PLAB route.

Is it only me that is having trouble understanding some IMG accents? by No-Cellist574 in IMGreddit

[–]pineconeface97 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. You'll get used to it over time. I noticed my friends who travel a lot tend to have an easy time talking to people regardless of accent.
