Sarah,
We had a position open at Tripler Army Medical Center but unfortunately it closed yesterday.  I would suggest you try "Queens Hospital", "Clinical Labs of Hawaii", "Kuakini Medical Center", and "Kaiser Medical Center".  They should have websites and you can probably inquire through them.  Hope things will work out for you.

It is a retracting microtome whereas all of the other microtomes in our laboratory are not. None of our techs like this new microtome and find it difficult to use.  My question to you as a group is, do many of you have retracting microtomes in your laboratory?  If so, do you insist that techs in your laboratory learn to use this type of microtome even if they do not feel comfortable using it?

We have students rotating thru the rotations and often have to use different microtomes, I am worried that if we have one outlier microtome which operates differently specimens could be compromised.  I welcome all your thoughts and opinions.
