12. Nurses aren't plaster saints

I know because I used to be one....a nurse, never a plaster saint.

What we need to do is check our religious, social and political baggage at the door Some are more successful than others.

My own dad was a bigot, the most appalling racist shit came out of his mouth. However, I never saw him be either rude or dismissive to a POC. People, even dads and nurses, have a right to believe stupid things. It's how they act that matters.
