DO BETTER!
 

Nurses deal with assault and harassment on a daily basis while trying to keep your CHILDREN alive but don't even make enough to pay our bills! Its very humbling as a nurse, who paid WAY too much money for school, put in her sweat, blood, and tears to become a nurse because we WANT to help and cashiers make almost as much as we do! We are treated like garbage everyday and our pay reflects that. The prices of renewal and CEs are outrageous already and now you want to raise prices even more?! VA, you will lose all of your nurses. I bet if I was trying to save YOUR child's life you'd pay me whatever I asked for. Come on VA, you know better, so DO BETTER!!
