Interesting facts
Today I saw some very interesting facts regarding employers and employment.
The world's largest single employer, with more than two million employees, is the Indian Railways Board.
The second is the Chinese Army.
But of most interest was the third, The British National Health Service. With so many employees one would expect a first class service. Are you getting it?


Happy daze John in Oz.

Quick answer...NO
Too many chiefs, not enough Indians
How many suits do you see wandering around with clipboards under their arms or ladies with bits of paper in their hands, clicky clacking along in high heels doing nothing medical, in your local hospital.
Ask yourself that next time you visit.
