It seems like every time I post, there's a new development. This one is big:
My boss terminated my employment contract (to be quite frank.. she was a terrible boss, and not a nice person; perhaps you gleaned that from previous posts) last week, I don't want to get into details, oh well. Luckily we have something to fall back on!!
At this point, we are amidst a relocation (200 miles away). We'll now be living within 25 minutes from our practice. HELL YEAH!!
I did receive another $5000.00 rent check from my tenants for the month of October. I also called up my contractor now that things have been kicked into high gear, and was told I could have my practice ready in 90 days. Tick-tock!

Hardware costs
Little did I know, or figure into expenses that hardware would become expensive, some of these items are overkill and not necessary for a startup:
- TalkSwitch Phone System. This is a biggie!! If your patient calls, and say line 1 is busy.. it will roll over to line 2, etc. A phone system does this for you automatically. When you call your cable company for your startup, ask for 3 dialtones (one fax, two phone lines).
- HP LaserJet P2035N printer (my favorite is the Xerox Phaser 3300 MFP, too expensive for a startup)
- ScanShell 800N card scanner
- Acroprint timeQplus V2 biometric. Employee time clock, overkill at the start.. you can do manual payroll instead.
- If you are in optometry school, or working for someone else at this stage... I urge you to learn basic bookkeeping/accounting, and familiarize yourself with Quickbooks.
