CONGRATULATIONS kEVIN! - Re: I passed

[Guest guest]

Dear ,

What a beautiful story! It is wonderful to see you and your wife so

close after all those years and the support that she has given you is

tremendous- both emotional and financial! I am sure also on a

spiritual level as well.

CONGRATULATIONS KEVIN!!

I am happy that you found this site helpful. I am encouraged toknow

that somw one with distance learning has ajob lined up without any

physical experience or training. I am sure that you will do well.

While you maynot feel comfortable in posting your

scores, I am interested in knowing how a distance learner scored

compared to others that are working or going to school with some

physical experience. So ifyou have a moment please email me privately.

What great grades in your class. A solid foundation of textbook

learning and fundamentals is extremely important. Now you are about

to embark on the journey of putting together the knowledge with the

skills that you will master on the job, in training. How exciting for

you!

You are also most fortunate! Many pharmacies would not hire someone

who has gone through distance learning without hands on. I know

because I have gotten many posts and private emails regarding this

very issue. Please feel special and very lucky.

Please keep us posted on your progress of your career choice. Any

questions about your training this is the place!

Thank you for your displayed appreciation of this site and my help,

and the help of the TEXPERTS and others as well. Your appreciation

is like feul to a fire for us. It keeps the passion of the mission of

this site burning. It is what keeps us here year after year.

Most Respectfully,
