Well, I have been looking at options in the health industry, and I may have fallen on something that is decent. If I get into the Surgical field, I can make decent money, and I can do most of my schooling online which is what I have been wanting.

I know that most people working in the health care industry say that this filed doesn’t pay as much as a nurse, but it definitely is a needed type of job. Recently my wife got layed off from her job as a florist, so its been a little hard lately. Even though she went to school for biology, most of those jobs require you to start by working nights, and I just don’t want to put her through being the money maker at this point in time.

So after looking at the surgical technician salary I came to the decision to at least give it a shot. The cost for online training is just a fraction of the cost of going to school at a regular college, and I can take most of these courses whenever I need too. I think this will be a turning point in my life, and with a baby in our minds, I know the job market isn’t going to get any easier any time soon.

I also took a look at some MRI technician programs and thought about that too, but then realized that sometimes they require you to have good grades from high school to even join the class since they get filled up with students so fast. So Surgical technician career, here I come!
