Senior Technician

I wonder where these 'pearls of wisdom' come from? As a techie in the NHS we have no budget for consumables, no budget for equipment upgrades, are given minimal rights (comparable to users) and work in conditions of 'tick box' management. Their sole concern is the appearance to the outside world to give the impression of "Improving Working Lives". IT in the NHS is full of people who have moved up the ladder having 'done their service' and believe that the word 'Manager' on their door means that they are managing. The Peter principle is alive and well in the NHS.
(nb. I have higher qualifications than my managers)
