    I am taking these opinions with a grain of salt and know that there is no way to know the credentialing level or experience of the members in this group. I am here seeking counsel, but of course it is ultimately my decision on how to proceed. I actually plan on reaching out to HR departments to...

    Akulahawk, thank you for your advice. I know my path ahead is not going to be an easy one for sure. I have continued to look at other ways to get PCE, I just need to decide which would be the best choice. I’m trying to find alternatives to relieve stress, better ways to hangout with friends and...

    Thank you for your advice, it seems to be going that route, which I completely understand. I just want some $0.02 from people that work in the field.

I have...
