When I became a technician after my internship, I wanted a technician job. At that time, there was a lot of openings for research technicians and medical technicians. So I had to make a choice I had when research and medical by internship took four years to complete. So I was well qualified for both positions that I went on for an interview but took a couple of days to make up my mind. So I took the job working at NASA, setting up a research laboratory. I had trained in research labs, so that was easy for me to start that job. Around that time, I started reading the Bible and put the research with the moon, the sun, and the stars and all that was in God’s creation. Chemistry, histology, virology, pathology, electron microscope, and bacteria, to me, were all in God’s creations. Setting up that research laboratory, I imagined that was in God’s creation.
So when I went to set up a research laboratory, I worked very hard and did my best.
