A Tit For Tat. (I think I know what that means, I just hope it doesn't sound dirty)

So a lot has happened as of late.

First things first: I decided to audit my Advanced Anatomy class, which basically means I'm still taking it, but I won't be graded. This is excellent because I would most surely fail the class, but I love it and am learning a ton. I have a good friend at work with 3 very smart med school student friends, and they all got C's in this class. Since I am currently applying to the Med Tech program, my grades still matter at this point, so I would hate to screw up my GPA and chances of getting in with a class I don't technically need to take but am for fun. However, I do still get to go to all the labs, which means I still have to do my homework, so as to learn and not look like an idiot in front of all the TAs and other students when we present our diagnosis's for the problems.

Also, I'm cross training at work up front. I finally feel like a well rounded technician. Instead of solely being a bench technician I can now answer phones and answer client questions about tests, find out turn around times, I can split samples, do buckets (bringing samples into lab), storage (sending samples out of lab and into storage), put away samples, sit up front, write non-allergen excepts, deal with the problem box, inventory, call logging...the list goes on and on. I feel less useless, but it's nice because even though I know how to do everything now, I won't have to deal with it on a daily basis.

Yeah, just a short one for now. I'm been very busy as of late, so my thoughts are scattered. I'll probably write more tomorrow.
