00:00You're firing me because I bite my nails.

00:03We've had this discussion many, many times.

00:06Nothing's been done about it. This is the final straw.

00:09Everything's on that piece of paper.

00:11That we can't have nails like you've got in a ward.

00:14They're not even that long.

00:15It's all about hygiene and the way we present ourselves

00:19to the public and to the patients.

00:21I've seen shorter nails more drag queens, to be perfectly honest,

00:24and they do not work in a hospital.

00:26Yeah, but at the end of the day, you're a man

00:28and you're a bit obsessed with how women dress and everything.

00:32It's very double standards, I would say.

00:34Kaia, I've got to stop you there.

00:36My sex and your sex has absolutely nothing to do

00:39with the decision that the board has made about your nails.

00:42I have spoken to my boss, who incidentally is a female,

00:45and she agrees with me and the rest of the board

00:48that it has to be short nails, no nail varnish.

00:51And I have to be honest, Kaia, they look hideous.

00:54The colour is awful. It doesn't suit you personally.

00:57You cannot say that. That's so attacking me.

01:01And anyway, I think they look nice.

01:02I've had so many compliments.

01:03Whatever you think, you don't understand fashion.

01:06He says it's not a sexist issue,

01:08yet he's making comments on her appearance.

01:10You've probably got the compliments from some guys

01:12in your local pub when they've been trying to chat you up.

01:15I work here all the time. When do you think I've got time to go to a local pub?

01:19She dedicates her whole life to this hospital.

01:22Because we're short-staffed right there.

01:24You're here all the time and you're short-staffed.

01:26Then why have nails like that? Why can't you just have the nails like that?

01:28Because sometimes I want to, like, feel okay.

01:32Like, that's my one thing out of everything.

01:34Like, obviously, as you can see, I don't wear makeup.

01:37On the ward, I have my hair back. I do everything.

01:40This is, like, something just for me.

01:42Because of the number of grueling hours,

01:44it's important to do little things to help you feel like yourself.

01:48Again, I keep on saying this, but that is so wrong.

01:51There is a procedure that we have got to follow.

01:53And at this precise moment, you haven't followed any procedures or warnings

01:57or little friendly notes from me.

02:00You still continue to wear the nails and it's unacceptable.

02:03Is this the wrong time of the month for you,

02:05that you're getting emotional like this?

02:06Oh, my God. Are we really going there?

02:08This was absolutely not the right comment to make.

02:10I think we have to because you're getting emotional.

02:12Yeah, but it's the wrong time of the month.

02:13Because you're bloody well firing me at the wrong time of the month,

02:16near Christmas.

02:17You are getting fired.

02:20She didn't want to work for a sexist man like that anyway.

02:23Right, so I've just had a meeting with HR.

02:26What an absolute sexist pig.

02:28I'm going to go to my union rep and sort this.

02:32I can't actually believe this.

02:33I've been working there eight years, right?

02:35At the end of the day, they need me more than I need them.

02:39So they better watch out for a lawsuit,

02:41because I'm not having this.

02:42Like, nurses are treated like absolutes.

02:45We do the most, but they're for our patients.

02:48We're the most loving, supporting, caring people ever.

02:51And we're just shut on from a great height

02:53and I can't cope with it anymore.

02:55I'm not dealing with this.

02:56I'm not dealing with this.
