Re: Better out than in
"... should spend a day in their shoes or perhaps an hour in a cesspit."
The Cesspit is being far far too kind !!!
Spend the Day as a Nurse in a Geriatric Ward then say they are not worth *more* money & respect !!!
Also, don't forget the people who man/woman the numerous 'Care Homes' that are in a similar position but without the 'medical backup'.
These are the people who get to experience the worse end of the Human Lifecycle, the part that everyone would like to ignore. I have huge respect for the people who can do this day after day.
