Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

i thought you were a nurse,so i take it you have re-trained???

I originally trained as a nurse. Then did the extra training to become a midwife. Didn't like being called a nurse when I was working as a midwife - it's a snobbery thing, midwives generally think they are a cut above nurses :whistle

I was what you call double trained for a number of years and am now back working as a nurse.

Listening to the new Enter Shikari album on Spotify.

I've listened to one song so far and it's like The Streets with gang vocals and beatdowns... not good.

E.S. are fucking horrendous. That single they had out a while bak sounded shite to start off with, then grew on me a wee bit, and is now back to shite again.

I thought their first album was cracking. Not usually my type of thing, but I really, really enjoyed it. I didn't like the single at first, but as you say, it grew on me.

6 songs in and only one good song, Antwerpen, and I heard that months ago when they put it up for download on their website.

I really hope this album is a grower, because so far it's pretty terrible.

Well actually no. You don't have to have trained as a nurse to be a midwife. You can be a nurse and then train as a midwife or just do midwifery. So, yes there is a difference. It fucking annoyed the tits off me when I was a midwife and someone said I was a nurse.

so they're not even nurses then? :o I thought the answer was going to be well technically they were but had specialist knowledge of a niche bit of nursing (like a nurse practitioner -nurse in a suit- or something), but to not even be nurse is quite shocking. Virtually a herbalist/pilates instructor then...a little bit of an awkward position i put myself in there as now I have to say something constructive which might not offend....... :(

I can see how that would annoy people. After all, there are expectations of ability/responsibility/pay differences. Like being on a plane and someone asks if a doctor is on board well yes, except I am a dermatologist! :D

I found a good song!

This one sounds as if it could do some damage in the chart as well. Little key change at the end bringing in the brass section made me think this is how Sigur Ros would sound on pills.

No Sleep Tonight, it's called.
