I didn't see this thread when it began, but fortunately I didn't have to wait too long for your report on your first few days. All I had to do was keep reading! Kelly this is wonderful and I am so happy for you. I work for an ophthalmologist in the front office and do all of his dictation as well and, though I mostly sit during the day, there is a lot of *up and down* and running around too. It sounds like you are doing well. I think this job sounds like *the one.* When you love your job it is not like work at all. I pray that will be the case for you.
