Goodbye, Shopko!

That's right, I'm saying goodbye to my job at Shopko. After 18 months working there as an Optician. A couple weeks ago I got a phone call, out of the blue, from the office manager at Helena Orthopedic Clinic. She had my resume on file from a previous job opening and wanted to set up an interview for a job opening as a Medical Secretary. It is not a medical coding job, which is what I went to school for, but this job does require a lot of the same terminology and background as coding. The interview went well and she called the following Monday to offer me the job.  I was so nervous. I am definitely my own worst critic when it comes to interviews. I still cannot believe how fast it is all happening. I put in my two weeks notice at Shopko and yesterday was my last shift. I start my new job tomorrow morning! I am excited and very nervous. I hope my hard work in Anatomy & Physiology and Medical Terminology will not have been in vain. Wish me luck!
