Happy 4th to all. Be safe.
Not really relavant, but it's 2:22 AM and I just woke up and am 1/2 wide awake: Years ago, a lady tried to return some tires to Nordstrom, which does not sell tires. A manager was called, and he...
If using alcohol, be very careful. I have run into at least one frame that basically came apart because I got a little toooooo much alcohol on it. I've never had that problem with acetone, or...
People are different, and that includes the customer/patient and the optician. True, it is often difficult to get a FT wearer to change what they are accustomed to...and, vice versa. Perhaps the...
I have over eight years total experience. Some retail, a lot of dispensing, but primarily lab (surface and finish). I have been a lab manager for an Optometrist in Austin, TX, and have worked for the...
I know there is a better way. If ABO is not the culprit, then the people they contracted with need to get their act together. Wonder how much they are soaking the ABO for?
I scored 86, by the...
She has been checking but no dice as yet. Her name is later in the alphabet than mine. I hope that's all it is. She's a bright young woman with a great future ahead of her. I'm sorry I found out, now...
I did pass...just found out today. However, I still feel that a better system could be devised, bolstered by the fact that a young lady who took her test the same day has NOT found out her results...
I am not sure what is "unprofessional" about having a poor opinion of the performance of a group in relationship to a particular event. I know a lot of diligent, hard-working, honest people who work...
Still, not very professional if it takes them this long to do their job. I have dealt with educational systems as well when I was an accountant for the Florida State Department of Education,...
Can anyone explain why it takes so long to get results from the ABO exam? Their literature says it can take seven weeks to get your results...and 10 more weeks to get a certificate! I took it Nov...
Thanks! I agree that they seem to be alignment markings and are of the same quality as other markings on the lens and are not in the vision area and should not interfere any more than the other...
As I have mentioned before, I used to work in an optical lab, but have been out of the business for 11 years. I have been working for the last four months in an in-house lab, relearning my trade.

Best of luck and all the success in the world...with or without technology. By the way, I too am good with a PD stick, but the hand doth wobble a bit more than it used to!
Probably from not...
“You must not, when you have gained a victory, use any triumphing or insulting expression, nor show too much pleasure ; but endeavor to console your adversary, and make him less dissatisfied with...
Hey Jim,
Feel free to crank away to your heart's content.
I spent 21 years in the military. If a man, or woman, cannot have the freedom to be cranky...and to gripe at will (whoever Will is),...
Thanks to all. Your comments have made it clearer to me....but another cup of coffee would really help a lot!:cheers: ...or whatever!!

Right. I get the x in and y down, decenter accordingly in the marker, and mark the axis. However, my question is, when I lay the lens on the ring, over the block, and prepare to run the wax, does it...
Thanks for the info. Gerber blocks; red, blue, gray, etc. Not a Step one as far as I know.
Many years ago, 11 to be exact, I worked with a Coburn 108, I think it was, in an optical lab owned by an optometrist in Austin. We blocked with alloy. It was a small lab and I think Alley Oop...
Amen, hallelujah (or however it's spelled!)
You disagree? I missed that part.
Where the heck DID I leave that coffee cup?
Have a great day.
Don
Should you really say, "hip", or any of its derivatives to anyone over 40? Your remarks might be misconstrued as some sort of personal observation...especially if you include "jeans" in the same...
Wondered why my coffee was turning red!!!!!!!!!

I'm still working on "college aged male". When I was in college, Vance Packard was just making people aware that there was such a thing as demographics and that the retail and marketing people used...
