You haven't had a correct "suspicion" in your life. I hired a hygienist, a
front desk receptionist, and an assistant a little over 3 1/2 years ago.
The front desk person just left 1 month ago to move to northern Florida for
retirement. Considering I'm only in business for 4 years, I'd say I have
about the lowest turnover rate of any medical/dental office in the area.

You come across as someone that's quite bitter in your career choice.
You said
before that the medical profession appealed to you, but you never had
the
aptitude in the sciences.


As usual your interpretation is incorrect.


Sure it is. Here's what you said in May, 2000, Harry:

It all depends on what you want to do with your life.
When I started college, I wanted to be a medical doctor...until I ran into
p-chem. Couldn't hack it then, could now. Dunno why. So I fell back on my
second love, literature, and because an English major. Got a BA in that and
got an immediate job with a big time newspaper. Paper didn't care what the
degree was in, and still doesn't. Got a master's in English, too. Both
degrees have little "value" in a society that values degrees in "trade
school" subjects. Got another degree a couple of years ago in a sort of
trade school subject, but I did that for the pleasure of learning the
subject, not to practice the profession.

To me, a fault of modern society is that there is not enough emphasis on the
liberal arts.

Bill,
Harry has a remarkably short memory when he thinks it can help his case.
More than 3 years ago, he said he couldn't hack the science courses, and,
thus, never entered the medical profession. He's bitter.

You sound like someone who had trouble holding a job. Have can not think
of
any bad boss I ever had. Most people find it hard to hire and train good
people and will bend over backwards to hold onto good employees.

Maybe that is your problem, you were not a good employee.

Since when did combat in Vietnam become a litmus test for a President?
Hell, they ran from that issue in 1992 and 1996...and now it's their battle
cry?

General Clark WAS out there where the bullets flew in Vietnam. Here's a

Vietnam and was wounded four times in action, while fighting against the
Viet Cong. During his Vietnam service, Clark received the Purple Heart

The only "science" course that really gave me trouble in my undergrad
years was a gem called "physical chemistry." Interestingly, I took that
course again, just for the hell of it, from the U of F, while we lived
in Florida, and aced it. It was just about the same course. I have no
idea why I had no trouble with the course in my 50's and why it gave me
so much anxiety when I was 20.

Naw. I'm not bitter. I've done pretty well with my professional life.
It's certainly been more interesting - and rewarding - than that of a
dentist.

Walter Middy? What an ignorant ass you are. As sure as the sun will rise
in the east tomorrow, you've never read any Thurber.

It's hard to think of any "professional" job worse than spending six or
eight hours a day peering into peoples' mouths, inhaling their bad
breath, sticking your fingers into their mouths, drilling holes in their
teeth, sopping up their saliva and blood and watching them grimace as
you cause them pain.

Blech. Emile Durkheim would have a blast with your psyche.

Yeah. Precisely what I posted before you posted this. Physical chemistry
did me in way back then, but for some unknown reason, I was able to
handle it years later. Go figure.

I never stated I had "no aptitude" in the sciences, dipstick. That's
your misinterpretation of what I posted. Not a surprise, since you're
not much of a reader...or thinker.

Only in your tweety-bird mind. The only reason I respond to any of your
posts is because your beliefs are so antediluvian, you represent the
perfect self-centered, selfish, I've-got-mine-so-screw-you conservative
Republican anti-societal piece of trash, and it is modest fun to stick a
fork in you. I would imagine people cross the street when they see you
so they are not in danger of your spattering slime on them.
