I think spring is around the corner. At my office, we have bird feeders outside the operatory windows, and lately, there have been more than just the winter scavenger birds. Pocatello is home to the most beautiful yellow finches, and as the weather gets warmer, the birds get more vibrant in color. Many patients comment on how fun they are to watch.
Not every office has the luxury of good views, or even windows. Our prior location, before building this new office, only had one window—located in the lobby.
I truly treasure the office I work in. We are prevention oriented and quality is never compromised. Our team is one big family and the environment is upbeat and fun. I often hear assistants or hygienists discussing how they dislike their offices or the staff they work with. How sad that must be. Why stay in an environment that is negative and counter productive? No job would be worth my happiness.
I guess the key word is “job.” I don’t look at dental hygiene as a job— rather, it is something I really love. It is my career and my passion. If you are in an office or a personal situation that isn’t fulfilling, make changes. My daughter recently shared the following quote with me: “Many people live their lives with the song of quiet despair and many people go to their graves singing the same song.”
Life is too short to be unhappy.
Welcome to my life,
Lisa
Are you in favor of a mid level dental provider?
