As long as there bringing in the dollars apparently they don't care if stuff is taken! Unbelievable but I have seen it too! :confused:
Really? When people ask me they have no idea what an optician is or what we do. When I explain it to them they usually say really and a license too. Most don't believe it at all. Go figure!
I've been told that same thing on numerous occasions. For some reason they associate optician with obstetrician don't understand it but they do.:confused:
The point I was making was I have the education, experience and management skill but they all say impressive resume and you come with great references but why would I pay you the higher wage when I...
Been there done that! :ninja:
My point being that I have no problem finding a job but as I said before I really don't want to work for Wally World but I might be forced into it. There is an MD OD establishment that the MD and I...

To perform a restricted act? What the heck are you talking about LandLord? Have you not been following the thread? I can think of numinous things that would be a restricted act but in this context...
If you want one exam then stay with the Mickey Mouse ABO! You can't cover everything in one exam. At minimum it needs four parts and each part a 100 question exam. It's not
that difficult. In NY it...
Ok it's all cleared up. My apologies to Roy as jediron1 has already extended the same too Roy. But you missed the point. We were saying and still say it's embarrassing to see these people call...
Wow! Wes and gmc I see the point jediron is making. As for Roy he should have said where he got the quote from and I think all of this could have been avoided. But as Roy said " it's embarrassing "...
So basically your saying there letting people go who have a great deal of knowledge and no apprentices to pass down there knowledge too. Other industries have made that same mistake just look at the...
Kind of thought that is what was happening. But when you see over 30 stores looking kind of makes you wonder what's up!
I was just looking at the job bank at The Opticians Association of American and was in awe of how many jobs were posted as help wanted in the southern part of NY and Long Island for Sears Optical. So...
