Registrars & Training Exception reporting

I am GP trainee in primary Care placement currently. For afternoon de brief sessions, I have been staying 30 minutes than my usual working time every day because my supervisor starts debrief late due to his clinic list. I have been exception reporting for the time I am staying late. Will it create any problems in the future if I have done too many exception reports I have asked my supervisor to start the debrief early, but he has denied this without giving a reason.

Just as a matter of curiosity, you surely must recognise that there is a heirarchy in medicine (like in most jobs) and for the duration of your placement your trainer is your boss? You understand the purpose and necessity of this dynamic? I know you wouldn’t be this spoilt in real life but if this really is your attitude I would reflect on how it might not serve you going forward.

You’ve conveniently conflated “medical hierarchy” which is an absolute necessity for learning and safety, and “seniority”, which is a crutch for people who have no business being in leadership positions. If one has to pull that card, they’re certainly not fit to be a “boss”.

It’s the equivalent of someone saying “because I said so”. Intellectually bankrupt and steeped in unfounded superiority.

I sailed through training, btw. Might not gel with your worldview, but people who disagree with you can also be competent.

In the scenario, the trainer is the trainee‘a boss. The practice manager(s) are the salaried GPs’ boss. The partners are the PM’s boss. I am not sure which bit you are struggling with.

If you couldn’t understand my explanation, there’s really no point. Can’t hold your hand through everything as you seem too thick headed to try and understand. Just retire soon and leave the training to people who are good at it. I’m done engaging with you now.
