I worked for J. Thomson Jewelers and I have been a gemologist since May 20th, 1996. My student # is 1072145. The company that I worked for wife is representing herself as a GG. I do not believe this is true. The test that I took was the hardest test that I have ever had. She is not an active member of J. Thomson Jewelers even though she is the owners wife. This is in Ok City, OK. Her name is Tracy Ratlift. I do not feel it is right to put her name as a GG,signing appraiasals as such. Her husbands signature is affixed to all of the store appraiasals, or her name is. I took the course over a 4 1/2 year period of time and I have been in this business for 35 years, Mr. Orlando Paddock was my first gemology instructor at Paris Jr. College. I feel like there should be something done about this. The jewelery business is sacred to me. And I feel the customers and the jewelery business is not getting a fair shake when someone says their one thing and pretending to be another. Thank You, W.R. Breit
