so why has the snail not listed more cases ?? is that all they could find 3 cases

unlike you, your knowledge comes from reading the snail why mine comes from the misses experience of doing locum work

the trusts she works for are well organised, i've seen the spreadsheets with the shifts on that each doctor has to work that the misses gets from the trust, could be 30 or so doctors on that spreadsheet with the times and days they work, so the department is covered 24/7

as i've already told you, and its not printed in the snail because they dont know well its the snail , if someone is off ill the admin section have a list of doctors in that trust who might be willing to cover for someone who is ill, if no one on the list can cover, then they have no option but to get someone from an agency and pay their price maybe that's a fact because the snail could only find 3 cases

the only fantasy and nonsense is coming from you and the snail, tell me dedworth what happens where your misses works when someone is ill, does you misses ever get asked to cover for them ? or do they go straight to an agency
