Wow!!! It is pretty obvious this person has never worked as a HT. There are somethings you can cut corners but somethings you cannot. Do they want unreadable slides. I would without hesitation say to this manager the reason why this is not a good idea and would he want substandard slides if it was his tissue or someone he loves. Augh!!!! Stuff like this just makes me angry.

Our histo lab manager is telling us we should only be using one pack of blades (50 per pack) a month. I'm wondering what other techs think of this especially lab managers and supervisors. tmoor...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
