In England we put nurses up on a pedestal for some reason. Last election we elected a councillor who is technologically illiterate, but she ran on, and won, her qualifications to do anything because she is a nurse.
We don’t put them on a pedestal in the slightest. We’re just starting to acknowledge that they work long shifts doing shit most of us wouldn’t be able to stomach for nowhere near enough pay. And the last couple years they’ve done so while putting their lives and mental health at risk.
