Lovely read to educate yourself on the job of a NHS worker. Once you’ve done that, apply this principles to all government workers and university students. It’s amazing when things go right and you need something minor, but if you need something big it’s only on an emergency that you get it. People are so oversaturated with work and being understaffed. I work as a public school primary teacher and how unsupported, overworked and underpaid we are. Sure I can work my contracted hours but who’s going to have a bad day the next day? Who’s going to have to stay longer to have a few chats with parents or to answer parents mails? So yes the kindest thing we can do is recognising hard workers and just being kind and when someone is nice back, maybe just do a random act of kindness. I bought a breakfast for my bus driver because I’ve taken the same bus at the same time for 2 months and his smile made my day every day! I’ll remember him kindly and I’m sure he’ll remember me too.
