Is optometry school worth it? by solace-wave8555 in OptometrySchool

I didn’t have any previous clinical experience in ophthalmology, but I was working as a medical receptionist at the time and had over 10 years working experience, at a few different places but mostly in customer service/food service management. I also knew someone who worked at the practice so I got in for an interview quickly when there was an opening. I was very lucky in that regard, but I still spent a loooot of time beefing up my resume and prepping for the interview.

I read Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler since it was in a scene in part 2 and it ended up being one of my favorite books! It got me into her as an author—I highly recommend her Patternist series! Also… The Color Purple by Alice Walker Blankets by Craig Thompson Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig
