whats your job ?

I'm a glazing technician for Specsavers which means I make glasses all day and fix them.

Easy enough to do but it doesn't pay well enough so will be doing something else in the near future.

I had an argument with them today after what I was told on Sunday.
The Optician suggested Varifocals and I asked if you had to look through different parts of the lens depending what you looked at and he gave a firm 'NO'.
I asked him again for confirmation and he said you look through exactly the same lens in the same place and your eyes adjust.
I was sent to one of the staff and I asked her if they were the type you had to look through different parts of the lens and she twice said 'NO'.
I went home and Mrs Dimple said I was wrong, I went to work and at least 4 people told me I was wrong so I looked iyt up on the Internet and found this - http://www.specsavers.co.uk/glasses/varifocals/
THE DIRTY ROTTEN LIARS.

Me and Mrs Dimple went today and once again they confirmed you didn't have to look through different parts of the lenses and then I told them about the page on their own website.
I asked for the Manager and asked her why the staff were telling lies and then left.

indeed, i've always known verifocals to be like bifocals but without the discretely visible section for close up, so same operation just a smoothed lens.

A proper answer from me this time... Geoscientist for an O&G company. Time to finally put my education to use!
