I am a nurse who is a UFT member & I bought $*** worth of merchandise.I did not qualify for the **% discount because I am not a "teacher".As a nurse, I am responsible for maintaining the health of children so that they are able to attend school.I I work children who are diabetic,asthmatic,have potentially life threatening allergies,ADD,ADHD ,kidney failure etc.I teach children & teachers how to manage these & other diseases, & I also manage health crises of children & teachers.I am insulted by your lack of respect or value for the duties nurses perform in the school system.I will return my items & I will never purchase anything from B&N again, unless this unfair policy of not allowing a discount for nurses is changed.I am a UFT member, and though I don't stand in front of the classroom to teach, I do teach groups of students(up to ** students) about managing their asthma.I do teach teachers how to manage anaphylaxis & diabetic crises.Nurses deserve as much respect for their work as teachers.
