To be honest, I have been contemplating for years getting out of this crap hole of engineering and becoming a firehouse medic, or fireman. I just can not summon the courage to throw my engineering degree away. Getting locked into a career path can be so crippling.

I just think to myself, I could be making almost as much (with overtime of coarse) as I make now, and still be able to take off the random week here and there. I would never have to go blind staring at a computer screen again! Plus I get disability for any minor injury I incur, for as long as I am “down.”

CAR, I think you are pushing me over the edge. Maybe I will try and climb aboard the gravy train like so many of my friends. Hopefully I will not be heading for the last stop…

I am at least somewhat serious here. I looks like a really great job.
