The emergency service I provide is to the emergency services. When you visit an emergency department 3 times a week during a pandemic, give up your Easter long weekend because the same service you work at suffers a cyber incident that takes the health care network down, you keep being asked to roll the sleeves up and work longer hours than you are paid for, the least you can expect is to have your twice annual CPI pay increase honoured as the proverbial stops hitting the fan.I've colleagues who worked 16hr days 7 days a week for months on end, without penalty rates, took a pay cut so the admin / office staff wouldn't be stood down and jobless in a pandemic, just so you could have that condom to wear and disinfectant to use when the discount supplies of the cheap imported stuff you buy in preference to locally made dwindled to zero! IT supplies included, sterilize any keyboards during the pandemic?
There is a world of difference between some 3rd party saying you deserve a better wage, and personally claiming you're somehow hard done by relative to others. And you assert I lack empathy and perspective! :o
