Our field is very strong and is not in decline. Unfortunately, some "supervisors" around the country are relying on archaic methods and do not want to see or welcome change within the histo lab. We call ourselves professionals and yet not all of us are required to do continuing education? I read emails everyday and laugh at some of the bloviating that goes on inside this forum. I am glad the questions are asked, but I am also amazed at some of the responses that are shared with everyone. I choose to respond one on one with the person asking the question. Basic histology deals with didactics and this particular inquiry dealt more with OJT. There are many ways to get the same job done; are there more efficient ways? Probably, but this does not mean we all do our job the same way. I am not concerned about the future of Histotechnology. I embrace the opportunity to teach the young technicians about a field that sees a change almost daily. I am not here to offend either, but rather to defend an occupation that is as fascinating as it is frustrating. Respectfully, James Leroux, AAS, BA, HTL Histology Supervisor Petroglyph Pathology 640 Quantum Rd. Rio Rancho, NM 87124 (505) 924-0219 Joyce, As always, your 2 cents is 'right on'! Thank you!
