Nursing is huuuuge. My nurse friend with a doctorate just landed a $250k base job with 10 weeks paid vacation and a slew of other benefits. Wild.

Plumbing is huge too. If I ever need one, they're booked out like 3+ months unless you want to pay an emergency fee which is like double or triple.

I, too, am raising some livestock. We'll see where it goes. But at least to me it feels more connected and real.

True. And blood. Frankly not sure I could handle either, so I'll stick to my desk job
