    <description>&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;a href="https://community.qvc.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/31138"&gt;@guatmum&lt;/a&gt; wrote:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;P&gt;Greenhouse, you seem ignorant of other professions. &amp;nbsp;I can apply almost everything you stated about nurses to teachers and I'm sure some different things as well. &amp;nbsp;Yes, there was a time that teachers were (and in some places still are) working at the whim of the parent community. &amp;nbsp;Teachers, until the 50s and 60s weren't allowed to be married and work while showing a pregnancy. &amp;nbsp;Teachers still lose their jobs because they have a drink in their hand on a personal facebook site or the like. &amp;nbsp;I am questioned in the drugstore or grocery store about why I am "out" during a day I am out sick&amp;nbsp;and I have to explain to the parent (as though it's REALLY their business) that, since I live alone, I must still eat and pick up my own meds regardless of how sick I am. &amp;nbsp;We are constantly referred to as babysitters and most people in our culture still believe we only work part-time for a full-time salary. &amp;nbsp;So, yes, other professions have gone through quite a bit, we still strive to better our professions, and we still CONSTANTLY upgrade/update/continue our education. &amp;nbsp;Nurses don't have a monopoly on any of that. &amp;nbsp;When it comes to service professions, the saying is true, "Some help to save lives while others help to make lives." &amp;nbsp;However, wouldn't it be nice NOT to blame the entire world for the difficulties our professions have gone through? &amp;nbsp;Wouldn't it be nice to truly hear what others are saying rather than filtering it based on our own anger? &amp;nbsp;I didn't see the show but it sounds like, as others have already stated, that it was the READING as a talent that was commented on, not the profession of a nurse. &amp;nbsp;If the comment about the stethoscope was inaccurate, merely correcting the misconception would go a LOT further to create understanding in the public than railing about it. &amp;nbsp;And, no, one doesn't have to be a nurse to "get it." &amp;nbsp;That's just another way to dismiss someone's comment without explaining yourself.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;P&gt;I respect all professions and all people but nurses were being discussed. &amp;nbsp;I don't have anger. I believe you might...don't know you. &amp;nbsp;I am standing up for nurses who for many years had no unions, no one to support them and most clueless to what we endured. &amp;nbsp;As said, when I ended my career three years ago, I was practicing law...how unkind to say a person is ignorant....my mom was a teacher, my grandmother, my aunt and my uncle was a school principle and my niece's twin boys are both teachers...I was not discussing teachers. &amp;nbsp;I was discussing a comment about a stethoscope, from a nurses point of view..... being an instrument only used by doctors and as nurses, we were insulted; you are not a nurse so you missed the point. &amp;nbsp;It had nothing to do with the talent part. &amp;nbsp;I don't care about beauty pageants or what one considers talent. &amp;nbsp; Everyone can not be a concert violinist or determine if Tom Brady was guilty...that showed a lot of insight? &amp;nbsp;if a teacher came on and read something inspiring &amp;nbsp;about a moment where she changed a person's life, I certainly would not mock him/her and say what was that teacher doing with a book? &amp;nbsp;And, as part of my nursing career, I worked in the school system as a public health nurse and I do respect teachers and understand what they do and out up with daily but that is a discussion for another day...have a pleasant day!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Johnson &amp;amp; Johnson and Eggland's Best have pulled their advertising on The View. &amp;nbsp;I'm hoping all the rest of their sponsors will do the same. &amp;nbsp;The show should have been canceled years ago, IMO. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;The View has been a horrible show most of the time it's been on.&amp;nbsp; Hopefully, it's good riddance.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Since Barbara left the show has been circling the drain. They all talk at once and show no manners. I quit watching.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;FONT size="2"&gt;I think I spent about five minutes watching The View when it first started. Not a fan of Barbara Walters. That was more than enough for me. Haven't seen a minute of it since and I feel I have missed nothing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Not a regular viewer....last one I saw was a day off from work where Rosy attacked Tom Selleck and he walked off. &amp;nbsp;I catch it in the nail salon every 2 weeks and not by choice....no loss to me.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;The show was a mess with Barbra and without.&amp;nbsp; IMO it was never a good show and I'm surprised it's still on.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But for sponsors to pull out because of this debacle is stupid IMO.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;IMO sponsors' canceling will finally be the death knell of a show that should have ended at the very latest when Babs left. &amp;nbsp;When ABC's pocketbook starts being hit by sponsors pulling out, that will finally be the last straw for the show's demise.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I think Joy was just being Joy - that is to say, provocative.&amp;nbsp; And it was rather silly for a nurse to wear a stethoscope to Miss America.&amp;nbsp; If she had been an accountant and wore a green eyeshade, it would have been just as ridiculous.&amp;nbsp; I'm no fan of The View; just think people are looking for something to be outraged about.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Excerpt below from an article on the Huffington Post today written by a Nurse, K. Allard.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;"A woman in a beauty pageant put on baggy clothes and walked on stage to talk about her job, and all that women who are paid to sit at a table and gab could come up with were insults.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;That wasn't a sad moment for nurses. It was a sad moment for women, and I for one, am embarrassed, not angry. As supposed advocates for women, I just ask that you learn and you choose your words more carefully before attempting to degrade and minimize the work of millions."&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;I stopped watching this show many years ago. I see they were so DESPERATE that they brough back Joy Behar? she was on WWWL the other night and I was surprised to hear she is back on the View. She said Rosie O'Donnell quits everything she does. I think she was lying as I hear Rosie was fired from an ABC Executive I personally know.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
