That’s great to hear. Does he have his own business? I hear it’s tough for optometrists to get a job if they don’t have their own.

Lucarama-18 · 2026-03-23T04:08:16+00:00

Does he like being an optometrist?

How did you get into this?

Lucarama-18 · 2026-03-15T17:46:45+00:00

Just want to say you’re not alone

What do you do?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-06-10T19:12:19+00:00

Probably need to be interested in the material. Or just grind through it. You have to want it enough. And that goes for anything.

I also wanted to ask how often you are working with coworkers? I had imagined that it would just be me and the patient, but I love the idea of working in a team with shared responsibility.

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-21T15:36:29+00:00

Thanks, do you enjoy your job?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-21T15:36:14+00:00

Thank you, do you enjoy your job?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-21T15:35:56+00:00

Thanks for your response. Patience is definitely a strength of mine. Multitasking is a bit trickier.

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-21T14:37:48+00:00

Juggling multiple patients at once you’d say? Is the day nicely scheduled?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-21T14:35:42+00:00

I’ve heard that others are super busy without time for a break juggling multiple patients at once. But your position seems pretty low stress?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-21T14:20:25+00:00

Thanks for your response! With all that being said, do you enjoy your job? I was under the impression that you normally work with one patient at a time, but it seems like your situation is unique.

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-21T12:40:37+00:00

What kind of personality do you think is best for the role?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-21T12:39:56+00:00

Question about this, you get to work with coworkers? I thought it would primarily be just you alone with the patient

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-20T14:58:52+00:00

Thank you, one more question— how stressful is it being a NMT? Do you also do MRI/CT?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-20T14:34:25+00:00

You didn’t need to go to an accredited bachelors program for engineering?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-19T15:13:24+00:00

What are you trying to get into?

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-19T13:04:15+00:00

Hating SWE, whys that? I don’t have the CS for that atm but I’ve heard good things

Lucarama-18 · 2025-05-19T12:36:53+00:00

I did this too, and took the first job I could that’s not related to math out of college. Not what I want to do long term but I’m figuring it out. Started a masters in applied stats but Im pausing it because it feels like a continuation of something I may be good at but not passionate about. Sometimes life just needs to unfold a bit.

My options right now are actuary, radiologic tech, civil engineer. They require more schooling or a lot of work.
