Everyone likes posting there little lists so I thought I would have a go at it. This is for all of you who are uncertain about pharmacy or want out of the profession. Here is a list of jobs that have a comparable salary. I think I am going to try to be a Judge or a Co-pilot. However an embalmer might be cool. I wouldn't have to worry about dumb asses complaining that I am not embalming them fast enough, or asking why the embalming fliud cost so much ect.

A friend of mine just showed me the same link. She's also thinking that funeral director could be a good backup.

You know what I would love to do? Become a Justice of the Peace. It's not quite being a judge (so no $50 an hour), but it's local government. Plus, in Texas, if no coroner is present, the JP acts as such. 😱

I suppose it's possible to make this much as a physicist, but I thought most physicists ended up... teaching physics.

Never knew financial aid officers made so much...that seems appealing.

Are they the financial aid officers that work in schools? I doubt they make that much! lol...must be a different kind of financial aid officer.

Dental Hygenist make around $50 an hour...and they only have 2 years of school to do and the demand is increasing. Not bad at all...too bad I just hate teeth.

I thought being a hygienist was a bachelor's degree; but an assistant is a 2 year diploma?

I felt like a jerk when I was surprised to find out that hygienists have to take organic, too!

You can always become a pilot.

Go take flying lessons. It's fun.

Start off in a Cessna 151.. and move your way up to a jet.

Do know that many pilots make crap money.

This list explicitly says co-pilot, FYI. Me, I'm going to Adult Day Care Center Operations school.
