I have an irrational anger at people who can't stop coughing. I know it isn't their fault but I want to strangle them every time.

Even worse is when they try to hold it in and try to talk through it!

Even worse is when they play the martyr and come into work coughing and sneezing their germs everywhere!!! That idiot I share an office with is coughing everywhere and is on antibiotics and said to me yesterday "you use a lot of that alcohol gel, don't you? I don't think it does anything". WELL LOOK WHO IS SICK AND WHO ISN'T!!!
Also, she has been drinking from the same water bottle for 3 days and it's smeared in 2 different colours of lipstick. VOMIT!!!

The slowness of the HSE

The absolute inefficiency of people in high places in the HSE . People on huge salaries who work at snails pace and do a poor job while those on the frontline ( on far less pay ) run themselves ragged and keep the health system going . The top brass in the HSE have no clue what is going on at the frontline in A and E or hospital or with carers etc

A great article here from the frontline

Getting snapchats that only stay on the screen for a few seconds. Friend in Paris sending snaps of places that I can only see for a few seconds. Send the pics on Viber goddammit.

Trivially annoyed by this.
Got copies of data I requested from a company, in the post, this morning. Despite the fact that my name is literally on every single document, whoever addressed the envelope spelled my name incorrectly. Wtf!

Uk peeps don’t get my name. It’s regularly misspelled- it’s just four letters

corner of hells

The car that was abandoned outside my house , it's gone .
Today was the day I was going to complain to the council about.

TA , no abandoned car to complain about.

I'd forgotten what a sh1tehole Charles de Gaul airport is.
There is one stupidly expensive restaurant and other than that it's crappy sandwiches or a McDonald's on ground side.
Rubbish choice of booze in the duty free.
It's about 25 degrees in departure lounge.

I love it! It always feel like I'm in a 1970s movie, and Sean Connery is going to run past me in the tunnels with the spongy travelator in a safari suit holding a gun.

I though there was a choice of restaurants on the ground floor, and more snacks available at the gate that EI use?

The article doesn't support your view of 'admin vs front line' at all. I really don't get this 'adminstrators are all bad' stuff. Is the person who manages the payroll, or the website, or the purchasing of the MRI machines all wasters, just because they don't work on the front line?

It does actually . He is saying the funding is not matching the demand ,Thats a top brass decision not the consultants . I dont think I would consider the person who purchases the MRI machine as top brass really .I didnt say all admin were bad at all / Top brass are admin at the very top who are supposed to run the HSE on huge salaries .

2. We already spend a lot on health so we shouldn’t give “them” more money

This is an adolescent view of the problem. The reality is that the Irish health service has been treating more patients for less money for most of the last decade. Serious healthcare systems all over the world know healthcare costs are spiralling and are making plans to meet that.

The truth is we will need to spend more to stand still, let alone catch up. The overall spend is inevitably going to rise and anyone who thinks it won’t in a population that is booming and ageing is committing a gargantuan act of self-deception.

South Dublin: 'I'm from Rrrrland' Where? Holland? No Rrrland.

The amount of times this happens with mainland Europeans.

It's IRE-LAND

Sounds weird if I pronounce it the second way though.

HSE top brass don't get to decide HSE funding. That's a political/policy decision.

And yes, people at the top brass of the HSE are on big money, as are people at the top brass of any large organisation. So there is a head of procurement and a head of IT and head of HR, as well as all the national directors of services and regions. It's a large organisation managing complex services with unpredictable demands.

The CEO earns less than €200k to manage a €16 billion budget and about 100k staff. What do you think his salary should be?

I dont actually care what his salary should or should not be to be honest .I just wish he did his job well and to the very best of his ability . If he cant take the heat then get out of the kitchen .

People pronouncing Cork as "Coo-erk", thinking this makes them sound all mid-Atlantic and impresses the Americans. It doesn't, in particular Texans, who just assume you've been drinking.

Bredabe

Went to a shop local to my friend Christmas eve lunchtime, as expected it was jammed.
I was in a queue of 3 separate customers, the lady on the till was very competent and good-humored.

The first person paid by card and the till person wished him Happy Christmas as he left,
the next couple were wearing a dishdasha and hijāb respectively, they were wished a happy new year,
the third person was obviously known to staff, she paid cash and walked straight over to the floor manager.

Manager came over to take the operator off the till and we had to wait for the replacement operator,
the reason for this, operator had not said Happy Christmas to the last person.

TA'ed this was given such credence and the rest of us inconvenienced like this.
