It looks as if Tucker may have finally found his calling!
It's true that he's still in high school, but after working
in the kitchen at Guthrie's and singing for tips at Cold
Stone Creamery, he was pretty sure that the fast food
industry wasn't what he wanted to do for the rest of his
life. It turns out that Grissom High School has a program that
allows students to work as part of their studies, so Tuck
took a shot and asked his orthodontist, Dr. Dickson, if he
might be interested in having a co-op student. Turns out "Dr
D" was very interested and after all the paperwork was
submitted, Tuck donned his mask and started what may be the coolest job ever! Dr D has been great about
teaching Tuck all about the job, and has even allowed Tuck
to do some of the work on select individuals (brother Philip
included). He's made molds of people's teeth, created
retainers, inserted spacers, and a host of other things that
most guys probably never get a chance to do until dental
school. But most of all he's learned that the right
front-office person can make or break a practice - Cathy is
AWESOME at keeping both of the guys in line :-) Time will tell if this ends up being the start of a
lifelong occupation for Tuck, but at least for now he's
having a blast while learning a lot with a couple of great
people.
