sort of healthcare job is going to make decent money. X-ray tech here,
started at $25/hour, make over $31 right now, plus call (call is
nice...it's $8 an hour just for sitting around being available, and then
time and a half, minimum of 2 hours guarenteed, if you get called in).
My health insurance is just about top notch, and I get 6 weeks of paid
vacation a year. Not rich by any means, but I'm not hurting. I make more
than a couple of friends who are school teachers with masters
degrees...and the rad tech certification is like an RN (associate's
degree). If I learn a more advanced modality, like ultrasound, MRI, or
nuclear medicine, I'll make more. If I go back to school for a couple of
years and become a physician's assistant or a radiologist's assistant
(basically a PA that does fluoro procedures so the radiologists can sit
back and read films all day), it's like $100k+. I'm not sure I want to
deal with that, though...I'm happy at what I do now.
And if you
can't find yourself a gorgeous girl with a good job working in a
hospital, you are one ugly, sad, beta-ass motherfucker. |
