--- Quote from: pwhodges on 18 May 2014, 10:10 ---My thought was prompted (somewhat indirectly) by contemplating, while walking the dogs, why I enjoy work less than I did. It's because of modern management styles that have convinced themselves that better value can be got by having less people do more work - not true.

My epiphany was when the multinational I worked for decided to outsource the work of my entire department worldwide. One minute you're on the fast-track, tagged as a "high achiever", "future leader" and all that corpspeak bulldust, and the next you've been made redundant on statutory minimum terms, because a new CIO on the other side of the planet decided this was the way to boost his career...

Trauma Informed Care, no, what is that? It sounds... intriguing.
I'd quite like to be an independent midwife, to get away from some of the worst parts of the NHS bureaucracy, but there are two issues with that for me. One is that I don't believe it's right to have to pay to get good care, so I should stay in the NHS and be a good midwife who anyone can access. The other is that at the moment, it's very difficult to actually be an independent midwife in the EU, because of some new insurance laws that have really messed things up.

I sense a possible fascinating thread coming into being.
Buy an existing business with the seller financing it. It's not unheard of.

Hmm...my idea was to start a brewery, and I'm not crazy about the idea of buying an existing brewery. Also, even if I did do that, my student loan debt is one thing, but buying a business would be an order of magnitude above even that.

I bought myself a cap. It says "Sorry I'm fresh" on it.
it says "and you're not" on the back
