First Day (and first week)

I'm finished with Week One of being Receptionist at the dental clinic of Dr. Lee Jess and Dr. Jordan Anderson. I have to say... I absolutely love it. Like, a whole lot. It reeeeally fits me, I think. I answer phones, check people in, go through charts, call insurance companies, make copies, file, take messages and schedule patients. Pretty much everything I was doing when I was 7 years old, playing Office. I think it'll be great, and I especially like the hours. It sounds like I'll start at 9am, and I won't be working Fridays. This is awesome.

I don't get to see Jordan too much, but when I see "Dr. Anderson," I'm usually very impressed and struck by how professional and dentist-y he is. You should all see him in action - it's very cool.

So far so good - I think this will be a very good stepping stone as we inch toward more ownership of the practice. This position will give me a great perspective on how to run a clinic, and I already of tons of ideas for the future. So far, I think the girls I work with (Kelly and Rita) like me... let's hope we can keep it that way. Things feel a bit hairy right now, but I think as I catch on more and more, work will become less stressful. At least I hope so.

Here I am, on my first day of work (Monday, July 28th):
