Just wanted to know how many of those in work get really frustrated by inefficient work systems. I know it must frustrate everyone but it seems I can get way more annoyed by it than anyone else sometimes to a point where I can't work in that particular job because I know the inefficient system won't change. I just sit there thinking this whole thing is such a waste of time and effort and resources . I don't know I just find it so unbearable and wondered whether other felt the same.
I too see a lot of inefficiencies in my work but the good thing about it is that they encourage feedback so we're always iterating on the systems we have, and building them be better, slicker, more efficient.
Perhaps try giving your feedback to a manager, or if they aren't responsive, speak directly to whoever is building the systems (eg, your tech team) who might be willing to work on smoothing things out.
Yeah often it's ignored, not listened to or your seen as disruptive. Can't upset the status quo in the NHS god forbid (sarcasm)
I'm generalising of course there's some receptive people and teams etc but often feels like the exception rather than the rule
