World's Busiest Maternity Hospital - in Manila.

[SimonH]

what a good idea, think about it first, well you are the expert on the NHS (ambulance workshops and the state of the NHS)

so I'll ask you how many babies has she delivered then

I'll help you out

my misses spent 2 months working in that hospital during her clerkship, she said she delivered about 15 babies a day, so it is possible that as a senior nurse could have delivered 25 babies a shift.

25 * 5 = 125 a week,
48 working wks a year = 6,000
6,000 * 28yrs = 168,000 after all its the world's busiest maternity hospital

as for trolling, your the only one who questioned her estimate, after all as Marco said she was pushed for a figure.

Pointless discussing it with you isn't it Joe, because you always think you're right Did your misses actually deliver 15 babies a day or did she assist in the delivery

Tell me, how did you get your status as a moderator, when all you do is troll and antagonise

Tell you what, why not try moderating for once and just concede that she may have exaggerated a bit, try to bear in mind that this debate over figures was being discussed before the programme was aired AND before any one of us knew she was being pushed for a figure.

No, I broke her statement down into an equation, as in I doubted her figure, before it was stated that she was bullied into giving a guess.

You still avoid my very pertinent question about how you became a moderator when all you do is antagonise

You are beginning to resemble the Vicky Pollard of this forum with all your "yeah but, no but" answers

Stop questioning why he became a moderator. It was the Admin's decision many years ago and Joe has been here in the forum for 7 years. If you have all your free time, go and search joe's posts for the past 7 years to know why he became a moderator.

Am I as a member of this forum, am I not allowed to question those who have been here longer than me

As an Admin's Assistant I would hazard a guess that you assist in the administration of the forum, and it's very much appreciated

As a moderator of a forum, I would have guessed that the role would involve some sort of moderating forum members rather than antagonising them, hence the question


This isn't meant to be an argument, and I'm trying not to turn it into one, but it's beginning to feel like I'm the new boy who should keep his mouth shut and accept what the established members say without question

You don't know the work that moderators here do. That involves not just being in the forum but monitoring whatever is happening in the forum and helping the admin. Do you have time to monitor the spammers, new sign ups, etc.? Do you have time to approve moderated posts? Do you have time to delete inappropriate posts? Can you give appropriate advice to the members, especially the new ones, with regards to visas and such? Can you commit to be in the forum every single day and see to it that the forum is not dead? Now, if someone can commit to that job, then he/she can be a moderator. Remember, they don't get paid doing these things.

I don't think Joe has antagonised the members here. He is expressing his views. Just like everyone else. If you really want to know why he became a moderator, do as I told you. Read his posts from the start he became a member here. You would see why.

By the way, my husband, Win2win, is the owner of the forum. Hence I'm the assistant.

I'm well aware of who the founder and his wife are, thank you

Maybe a more appropriate term for moderator as you've described it would be monitor, then I would get confused as to what the role was

As far as reading Joe's posts from the beginning, that would be rather futile as I imagine a lot of those posts involve members no longer here, and therefore I wouldn't want to read anything out of context or misinterpret a response.

Thanks again for clarifying what the role of moderator is

As per Marco's response in post 16 "The interviewer then pushed her and she just said 200,000." so this can be interpreted as being bullied
The programme HAS (past tense) been aired, the interviewer DID push her (past tense), therefore she WAS pushed or bullied into giving an answer
At what point in your post number 33 did you get the impression that I had accused you of bullying

[joebloggs]

did you watch the program ? well to refresh your memory here is the clip again.



is that what you class as bullying



Chief midwife Anna Prebus has delivered so many babies, she finds it impossible to remember how many she has brought into the world.

'I'm sorry but I can't remember [how many babies I've delivered],' she tells Rani. 'It's so many! Maybe 200,000. I've been here since 1986, almost 28 years.'

One in five of central Manila's mothers come here to deliver their babies, and midwives work day and night.

'Sometimes, during high season, 13 to 16 babies are in the delivery room at the same time,' Arlene Matanguihan, a resident doctor, said.
