I'm a retired nurse, I now do some part time work as a Mental Health Act manager.  So if you need detaining whilst you get over your mental health problems, I'm yer man :-) :-) :-) Mainly to keep my registration active :-(

Oh and that was a joke, I don't detain anyone really

I'm a nuclear medicine physicist and I'm mainly involved in treating cancer patients in a hospital. 

Of course I'd earn a lot more if I did something like dig holes in the ground or drove a truck at a mine site....

I retired from the software industry four years ago.

I still spend most of my time looking at computer screens but no longer get paid for it - mind you I don't get the hassle either, so that's okay. :)

Suzy....

try to be philosophical about the money you earn...  We used to get a bit crabby about the poor money we earned in the nursing job...  I used to come back with this.

There are men crawling about a mile under the earth with picks and shovels using machines that could kill them in an instant !!!  So I guess coming to work in a nice clean shirt each day ain't that bad after all.

Having said that, if your in oncology I'd double your pay today  :lol:

I'm a 25yo young mum with two children (18mo DD, 3yo DS) and I'm studying Naturopathy at uni.  I LOVE my studies!!!  I'm going to wrap it up with some CalmBirth education, hypnosis and mind-body medicine and become a Childbirth Assistant (not a doula or a midwife).
