Do you ever go places with your family, and they introduce you as "the nurse" or "the RN"?
I have just graduated last week and my husbands family took me several places (restaurants, church, family reunion) this weekend. When it was time to introduce me to the new people, I was introduced like this:
"This is my daughter in law - the RN". OK, first I was correcting them saying that I am not an RN yet. Then it got old after the first 10 times. Then I thought it was funny. I mean those people don't know my name or anything else about me, but they know that I am an "RN". I guess that has become my name now. I know that they are proud of me, because nobody in their family has ever went to college, so I am honored by that.
How about you guys? Am I alone with this?
