Karen:
No sooner had Bobby positioned the mouse over the Stuff For Nurses category title and pressed the mouse then the Nurses Stuff product page popped up. “Oh my God, Susan,” Karen called out in aww when the nine product images popped up. Placing her glass of wine on the coffee table and positioning herself on the edge of sofa to get a better view of the products, Karen began to whisper the sayings on each of the products, “Frontline Nurse Covid 19 War.” Looking to Susan, she added, “Brilliant, Susan. Absolutely brilliant!”
Susan:
“I first heard the term, ‘Frontline War’ early in the pandemic and I immediately loved it,” Susan replied, looking to Karen. “I then added the words, ‘Covid19 War’ because if you should see what I have to wear every day at work to treat my Covid patients you would think I am dressed for a field hospital in the middle of a war!”
Karen:
“I can well imagine,” Karen injected.
Susan:
“No, you can’t, Karen,” Susan replied with respect in her voice putting her glass of wine on the coffee table next to Karen’s glass and moving closer to Karen on the edge of the couch. “The moment I get to work I have to test for Covid. If I test negative, I’m then permitted to work for the day. I then have to put on special scrubs, put latex gloves on my hands, wear latex booties, and put on goggles over my glasses.
Susan:
“I had no idea, Susan,” Karen sympathetically stated.
Karen:
“Do you have any idea how hot it is wearing all that protective gear?” Susan asked. “And changing it several times a day!”
Bobby:
“Well I can tell you,” Bobby injected before Karen could answer. “There were nights when Susan came home with her uniform soaking wet and with impression marks around her eyes from the goggles she had to wear.”
Charlie:
“Now I fully understand why you added the words, Covid 19 War,” Charlie stated. Raising his glass of wine upward and in Susan’s direction, Charlie announced, “A toast to Susan. We appreciate all that you do.”
Susan:
After talking a drink from her glass, Susan replied, “Well thank you, Charlie. I certainly appreciate the acknowledgement. We don’t hear it often enough given the job we do.” Returning her glass to the coffee table Susan, added, “Well enough about me, let’s redirect our attention to the Stuff For Nurses products.”
Charlie:
“I like that you made several of the products in military green with the word, Nurse, in desert camouflage style,” Charlie stated.
Bobby:
“We intentionally did that,” Bobby added. “We wanted to emphasize the Frontline Nurse Covid 19 War concept without it being directed at military nurses.”
Charlie:
“Well I would say that you accomplished your objective,” Charlie stated. “All these products look very appealing.”
Karen:
“I would certainly buy one, if I were a nurse,” Karen injected. “As a matter of fact, I think I’ll buy one for my neighbor 2 doors down who is an RN. I know she’ll love it.”
Susan:
Trying to move the conversation along, Susan stated, “If you will notice the image reading ‘promotional item’, this is my offering to all my fellow nurses.
Karen:
“How’s that?” Karen asked.
Susan:
“Nurses are proud professionals,” Susan stated after she picked up her glass of wine. “That’s why I designed this t-shirt that says on the front, ‘I Love Being A Nurse’, she proudly added. The promotion I’m offering to my fellow nurses is a thirty-five percent discount.”
Karen:
“That’s generous,” Karen pronounced.
Bobby:
“And you should feel the quality of the t-shirt,” Bobby inserted. “It’s a premium quality black V-Neck made of sixty-percent combed ring spun cotton with forty percent polyester.”
Susan:
“And it is so comfortable,” Susan added. “It weighs just four-ounces.”
Bobby:
Looking at the wall clock Bobby pointed out, “It’s almost ten to nine. Shall we move on to the New York Stuff?”
Charlie:
“Now that’s want I’ve been waiting for,” Charlie loudly broadcast. In an attempt to clarify his statement, Charlie said with concern in his voice, “Not that your other product categories are not interesting, it’s just that I love New York and all things about it.” In an attempt to win over their feelings Charlie continued in a softer tone, “I’ll definitely tell all my friends about your Stuff For Everyone® website and all your fine products.”
