I don't know if anyone remembers me ... I'm the poster "formerly known as" Optigoddess.
I'm still employed by LensCrafters (please don't hate me).
This past year, I made the decision to return to college to complete my bachelor's degree. I am weary of optical retailing (emphasis on the retailing part) and figure it is time to make a change. I have tried to get into "real" opticals ... only to find that they feel I am too "corporate" ... and yet, because I have always sought to educate myself and further my knowledge, I am not the "ideal" optician for optical retailing ... (kind of a "threat" IYKWIM) ... So, I am looking towards a new career path - hopefully, training and development ... I love teaching !!
In my LC store, I have taken the role of "recycling" for the Gift of Sight missions. This year, I will have recycled (cleaned, repaired, neutralized) about 2,500 pairs of glasses; hence my new optiboard name.
I've been lurking for awhile ... just thought I'd get "re-involved" with all you fine, fine folks ...
Merry Christmas ...
Karen
