  • intro thread

    Hi I'm new to the boards, but have lurked some in the past. I've been stuck in this field for over ten years now starting in the lab, and working my way up to manage an optical for an Opthamologist. Joined to gain the knowledge of some of the forum members here and to share what little I have picked up in the last ten years. Ok, so I don't completely hate my job just the days when I have to deal with the hoards of nuts that come into our office. I am, or was A.B.O. certified. NOt sure since I haven't checked on my dates and I surely haven't taken any classes to count towards my renewal. I would rather spend my off time with my family and son versus sitting with a bunch of other opticians listening to why so and so's products are so good. If I have any free time I enjoy going out for a ride on my motorcycle on the backroads around Houston.

    Dislikes

    Silhouette - crap
    Luxottica - all looks the same just a different wholesale price
    ^ Oakley - 70 piece buy-in
    Marchon - really nothing good to say
    ^ VSP - luckily only about 10% of my business
    patients on my special pricing list

    sun optic - shhhhhhh
    happy patients

    Hope to share and learn a little while sitting at work. If this is the wrong section please move it. I could not find an intro page.

    :cheers:

          Is uncut appropriate for an open forum?

          The layout of the forum is growing on me and a mod can easily move my thread, but thanks for the info.

          AND THANKS FOR THE HELLO!!!

            There are dozens of guests and lurkers for every poster. 14 min isn't really that long to wait for a response. Try not to live up to your name! Welcome to OB.

              It refers to the status of my hair, so I think it's ok

                  No, it was the views with no response that got me. How hard is it to say hello? Or maybe I'm just friendly. Digging the picture wes.

                      Lots of guests/lurkers. As a former lurker, every time you viewed something and didn't respond, you did exactly what you're discussing. ;)
                      You actually got a very quick response.

                        You really need to clam down and back off. If you expect replies 12 minutes ater you post, then you are going to be sorely disappointed. If you are, in fact, a TROLL as you claim, then you will be banned.

                        Take a deep breath before posting again.

                            My advice--- Be sure to grow skin thick enough that a mahout can't penetrate it.
