Spoilt BratsMr Newton sighs, "ever known anyone so spoilt you would love to strangle? I lived with a Paris Hilton-a-like who complained about everything, stomped her feet and whinged till she got her way. There was a happy ending though: she had to drop out of uni due to becoming pregnant after a one night stand..."
Who's the spoiltest person you've met? Has karma come to bite them yet? Or did you in fact end up strangling them? Uncle B3ta (and the serious crimes squad) wants to know.

These stories of posh schoolkids have reminded me of doctors...Junior doctors, to be precise. Most of them are fine, in fact I trained one yesterday who was senior enough to have doctors under him but still not quite a consultant, and he was a lovely guy.
However many of them are borderline unbearable. Just because they've been to medical school they think they own you. One of them recently complained that the hospital's IT policy prohibited facebook, and demanded that we unblock it. Just for him though, not for everyone. O_o

Nice to know...it isn't just my trust that does that.
Interestingly, I was talking to my boss who reckons it isn't banned because of the timewasting factor, but because they think virus' can be passed through the email system.
Despite this, I can still access and download from Gmail and Tiscali. Which also can be effective timewasters (not that I use them except during designated break periods, of course).

neverever do tech support for doctors. They are nightmares. "Why is that icon in a different place?" "How do Icons work" "What is the desktop - exactly" "What is a shell" "NTFS Filesytems - tell me everything you know" "viruses. Talk to me". Etc. Curious fuckers.

Dcotorslast week, I threw a surgeon out of my training room because I twice asked him to stop texting while I was talking and he ignored me. I wish I could have taken a picture of his face as this lowly IT trainer dared to stand up to someone as important as him. I think he thought I was joking at first.
