Surprising still.
Around here, ticketed or professionally trained weldors are hard to find

Currently an assistant psychologist at a mental health hospital. It's a job share so I only have to work 17 1/2 hours a week. I also do general healthcare work on different departments to fill my time.
I'm seriously considering going back to Uni to train as a qualified mental health nurse instead of the further training needed to become a chartered clinical psychologist. It's less stressful, more sociable, and would give me a free rein on working anywhere in the world. Less money though.

Like a Lavatory Technician is just a guy who cleans the toilets. |
Like my buddy, he jackhammers the concrete out of cement trucks, just general labour. But he calls himself a 'Cement cleaner technician' |

Wicked.
But how do u take it when a cute little puppy dies on you?
Thats why i could never be a vet. Making the animals better and stuff is cool, but seeing abused animals and animals going through agony is just way to tough for me. |

I know, but it would break my heart man...I remember when my dog died when I was kid, this little cute silky terrior, scruffy looking but cool and chillin. Broke my heart cuz they know when they are dying and they try to tell you and all that.
Just for dealing with the death of the animals, thats liike an extra oh, 20 grand, for me anyway

Saw open the skull, lay out the intestine...every part of the dog will be on a different place on the table. You get used to it. Sometimes I can be relieved that an animal is being euthanised...when you see it suffer all day long...but some owners are too stuborn (lbut thats understandable in a way) and want to try on and on with different therapies while practicaly all hope is gone and the dog or cat is doomed anyway. It's a big big difference when your own pet dies. Don't bring your work home |
yuck 
So u have to learn animal pathology and shit? Isnt any type of pathology separate from a reg dr, in either human or animal medicine?
Like, u can be an OBGYN (general practioner) and not be a pathologist. Know what I mean?
I dunno man, what do u eat for dinner after disecting a dog? Hamburger Helper
seriously tho, what do u eat for dinner after work on days like that?
I think I could get through it, the nastiness of the job, but eating afterward would be the hard part. |

Yes, also in veterinary medicine there are specialists although were a couple of years behind compared to human medicine. But we get a little bit of everything now and if you're good enough you can specialise in the same directions as in human medicine ie neurology, cardiology, ...
After a week of disecting dogs and cats your hands smell horribly, but its more the smell of the gloves than of de dead animal. And I've no problems eating after days like that...just a dinner with meat. We don't live in china so there won't be dog on my plate. But seriously, sometimes a piece of muscle in the autopsy room can look tasteful! And I"m not the only one who thinks like that So beware when your dog dies and you want to know what caused the death

That good, eh?  I don't think I'd like the army either |
You know, the army isnt the way it was.
Say me and u wanted to join. If we told them that we're best friends and want to be stationed together, they will do it, no questions asked. Well, unless say your a fighter pilot and im a cook u know?
And basic training isnt like it was...rough, but they dont just put u down. If u work hard, your rewarded, if your a slacker, you get picked on.
Mind u, if u want to be a ranger or say go for the jtf2, then yeah, your in for shit.
There are 3 separate tryouts over a year or 2 just to get into JTF2...and if u pass say 2 of the tryouts or even you pass everything except say one little detail, you fail and have to do the whole thing over....not like in the SEALS where u get one chance...like u can repeat that one section of the tryouts with the next class.
I wish I would have gotten into the military. I think its an honorable job...depending on your reasoning. Wanting to defend your country and represent our values is the greatest honour.
Still, kinda pisses me off when ppl generally bash US soldiers...some are bastards and evil...but the majority are kids who a scared and they believe they are fighting for their country. Whether they are wrong or right, its commendable and you cant knock em for it.
I always respect a soldier....soldiers, like vets/ppl who have seen warfare, are the toughest, most respectable ppl around in my view.
