Your son may being making that excuse in order to avoid doing something because “mom wants him to.” it is difficult to believe anyone still thinks nursing is a “girls job”. I live in Texas where we all carry guns, drive trucks and believe Jack Daniels should be president. But even we believe men who want to drive the best trucks should be nurses! I’m only using the above as an example. I certainly do not know you well enough to know if he’s trying to live his own life and trying to protect your feelings; however, for whatever reason, I do believe that’s an excuse and not a REAL reason. Good luck to both of you.

I disregarded the statement based on its written merits. Come on… You want a good job but write like a total idiot. Are we to assue, any building of which you assist the engineering staff will be safe because you take that responsibility more seriously than displaying a firm grasp of basic educational skills? Sorry, but you sadly represent a big part of the detrimental affects facing the nation. I hope the best you do life is good positioning in the unemployment line unless you change either your education or yo demo of it!

I do not believe that the recent jobs report is really anything to get very excited about. If you take a deeper look into the data you will find that much of the increase in employment was temporary employment during the last couple of months of the year. I believe that much of the current employment problems stem from a lack of real wealth creating companies. Untill the country gets away from all the jobs in the financial service sector. I believe that the unemployment situation will not improve. Jim Rogers has stated this in many of the interviews that he has given to the news media that the financial services sector is much to large. Jim Rogers also believes that the savings rate must be much higher if we are to sustain any high degree of economic growth. Many retailers can make more money loaning money to their customers at 20% interest than they can make selling product to their customers. What does that tell you about jobs.

Making the assumption that what you say is true about “easily making 6 figures” (although I have heard from multiple creditable sources such as criminal justice professors, law enforcement officers, and DARE that the average drug dealer makes less than minimum wage) when choosing a career path like the article says multiple factors must be considered other than just pay alone. The article outlines these other factors as stress, job satisfaction, and growth. Dealing falls short in all of these categories.
I do recognize that your post is made with some degree of sarcasm and for that I tip my hat to you and chuckle Big Bob, but kids these days are so impressionable I had to put in my two cents and keep them from forming these disillusioned ideas that dealing is some easy street game. Becoming a comedian, that is were the easy money’s at and I can see you are already well on your way.

But you do have to have a bachelors to even apply to CRNA school which is what Ruby was saying if you ACTUALLY read her post and didn’t just jump down her throat trying to discredit her.

WRONG. One DOES NOT have to have a bachelors to be an RN.

Thanks Rudy. My son was actually looking into doing this career. But we weren’t sure how to go about it. This gives us the info we need. He wanted to be a full Anesthesiologist, but not everyone is cut out for that length of schooling. I told him about nurse anesthetist and he seemed intrested in doing that. But of course his concern was being a nurse and being a guy and being teased. I would like for him to see that being a guy and being a nurse has no taboo about it. Can you tell us how many guys you know who do this field? I told him to get into the Med field because if this intrests you, you can get a job in this field. With the way times are now, you need to sit back and really think about what you should go to school for.

As a Structural Engineer (which is simply a subset of Civil Engineering) I can tell you that this job is anything but low stress. With funding continuing to decrease, engineers are expected to produce work faster and more efficiently. While software is helpful, a lot of our work is still done with pencils and paper.

If someone who writes as you do came to my company for an engineering job I would probably toss your resumé in the trash. Dat trash can wich was handiest.

Generally the higher paid engineering degress are petroleum engineering and electrical engineering. If you don’t like those, I’d suggest mechanical engineering because it is general enough that you can get jobs in many different fields. So no matter how the economy goes, you have a degree that should help you get a job. It’s a good one for a bachelor’s degree because you can always specialize in a master’s degree program if you want. Bio-tech is a growing field and they use mechnical engineers there too. I’m married to a chemical engineer, have 3 kids who are mechanical engineers, and one who is a civil engineer. So I have a little background in this. Good luck to you!

The medical/health care field should stay hot for quite a while as the baby boomers work their way though old age. Health care technicians can make a good salary after only a couple of years of training & sometimes just one year. Anyone good at higher math should have great opportunities in engineering and as a statitician for insurance companies and the financial industry.
