"The thing I love most about my career of choice is that I have seen first hand that what we dental technicians do makes a world of difference to the patients that needs oral appliances. This in itself makes me enjoy being able to supply my service. Being able to change lives one smile at time is my way of giving back to the world. The cons of my job is that it can become very stressful and sometimes people want technicians to create miracles or we have to create something with little to work with."

Lab Technician at Honeywell Aerospace
in Phoenix, AZ

"First let me comment on this question on love and hate in the work place. Love and hate are too powerful of words to use in this question. With that being said, I enjoy the people to whom I work with, the atmosphere to which we work and the experience level of everyone. What I least enjoy. The benefits of a contractor are little to none. This is my second term with Honeywell and as a contractor I get the pleasure of working through the holidays while everyone else gets paid time off."

"I love the fact that they allow us the opportunity to be within a large company and meet many important people. I love the pressure applied when many high priority cases come in and we are in a time crunch to complete them all within a given time (I enjoy the extra stress and pressure of situations like this). I dislike how occasionally people tend to slack while the manager isn't appointing duties, as I am a hard worker and I appreciate this opportunity."
