Ah! I just finished another temporary assignment at the hospital. This time I had a Filipino supervisor who could barely speak English. And she was trying to train me the data entry job I had gone there to do. There was another temp there who was a guy named Tony and he started the same day as I did.

I was supposed to transfer info from a sheet that had doctors writing on it and I could not read a lick of the writing. Doctors write horribly. After 3 days of this, they ended our assignment. Both Tony and I.

So the agency called me that evening and asked what happened as both of us were let go. So I just told her the truth; I could not understand the Filipino and could not read what the doctors had written.

That is the reason why people from outside thr UK have to pass an English language test before they are employed in hospitals

Ooooooo, sometimes I wish this country was not so ......open to other people coming here and living and working. This particular department I noticed had like 80% Filipinos in these types of positions. The educated nurses had the managerial jobs.

It has only been introduced in the past few years....but it is a good idea...
