My friends in healthcare, and that's a lot of people it turns out, have been telling me for years now that a good career for me would be as an Ultrasound Technician, also known as Diagnostic Medical Sonography. I've actually talked to sonographers about their jobs, including those who worked on me following my last attack two years ago, and it just may be my next career if I can cross the hurdle of a year of tough classes at the College of Marin.
Thursday, I went to Richmond. Kaiser Permanente Allied School of Healthcare has an orientation every couple of weeks, and this was my third visit. It's a little hard to find, and today as usual, I was having a fight with my car's GPS. Turn here? No, here? What? That was the street? Oh, you meant, turn there?? The blue line to follow on my GPS map always ends up looking like a Rold Gold pretzel. I always give myself an extra half hour each time so I can explore new and different neighborhoods in Richmond. Who needs Hawaii when there are so many wonderful places to see here? *@!!
You must be approved by the staff to enter their program. So, besides doing everything they ask, like get good grades and volunteer at hospitals, I'm also making sure they know who I am, how much I want this, and how hard I'm working for this.
Maybe I should hire a campaign manager?
