Being Replaced By Lower Paid Dental Assistants

I'VE BEEN A DENTAL ASSISTANT FOR OVER SEVENTEEN YEARS NOW. i WORKED MY WAY UP TO A DECENT WAGE. nOE I'M WORKING A JOB THAT PAYS ABOUT FIVE DOLLARS PER HOUR LESS THAN I WAS CURRENTLY MAKING. WHEN I LEFT MY PREVIOUS JOB. MY FRIENDS THAT WERE THERE WERE SHORTLY REPLACED BY ASSISTANTS COMING RIGHT OUT OF SCHOOL. THESES GIRLS WORKED FOR THIS DENTIST FOR MANY YEARS AND WERE AWESOME ASSISTANTS. ONE DAY THEY CAME INTO WORK AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE BEING LET GO . THEY WERE TOLD THEY COULD NO LONGER AFFORD TO KEEP THEM. THEY WERE REPLACED BY LOWER PAYING ASSISTANTS. MY FRIENDS WERE DEVASTATED. AFTER ALL THE YEARS OF SERVICE. ANYWAY ONLY ONE OF THE NEW EMPLOYESS REMAINS. THEY LEFT TOO WHEN THEY FOUND HOW UNDER PAID THEY WERE. AS FOR MY FRIENDS THEY BOTH LANDED BETTER JOBS. THE SCARS ARE STILL THERE. IT'S SUCH A SHAME WHEN YOU WORK FOR SUCH A GREAT DENTIST WITH A THRIVING PRACTICE AND HIS WIFE COMES IN A COMPLTELY DESTROYS A MULTI- MILLION DOLLAR PRACTICE.
