You didn't mention what your current cutting speed is, nor what speed they
want you to be at.
Ask your supervisor to set up goals for you to meet, with time frames. Each
week, work on getting faster, not fast today, just faster each week.
At the School where I taught, we had goals set up duri

It would be a shame to get discouraged now after all the time you have a

Alpha, it is clear to me, after 30+ years in the field, that some are born with

Felton, I disagree! The training this tech underwent must obviously have
covered basic histology but you cannot guarantee that a trained student will
find a laboratory that will give him/her the opportunity to develop speed while
not sacrificing quality. Having the training does not warrant tha
I always tell my students if you can cut, you can get a job. It appears that
you school did not properly prepare you for the demands of an average histology
job.
You need to take every opportunity to work on your craft and the major focus of
