I understand that.
I once was aiding someone having a seizure. I was dressed in a tshirt and jeans. Someone stated 'she must be a nurse'. I wonder how they knew that, since I wasn't in uniform.
To the world, wearing what is stated to be an Apostolic uniform doesn't identify me as one. Where I live (before IL went to non-smoking in public places), myself and other Apostolic women I was with were STILL asking 'smoking or non' when going to a restaurant.
Strangely enough, when I start my new job Wednesday, not only do I have to wear a uniform, but they also want me to have a badge to further identify me as a nurse.
In addition, they want a statement from my physician that shows I'm able to work without restrication and am in good health. Perhaps the UPC and other such orgs want to go a little farther than just clothing?
