[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"People tend to see nursing as a "blue collar" job. My former law boss was very distressed when a couple moved into the neighborhood and the wife was an RN/BSN. He thought it was too blue collar for his street" Yeah, nurses, firefighters, teachers and police officers all put downward pressure on your property values![/quote] I think it depends on where you live. Where I grew up in the mid-west, people considered nurses as part of the educated class. In this DC area, people jumble all the allied medical staffers together and put nurses in that group -- as something less impressive than the lawyers/lobbyists/gov. admin. class. I think other areas of the country have more respect for nurses as admirable profession.[/quote] OMG I have infinitely more respect for a nurse than a lawyer or lawyer/lobbyist. [/quote]
