I'm a trained chemist that finally got the chance to leave the customer service industry. Took a job as a lab technician, figuring it has to be better than CS. Quit my job, moved out of my house.
Got to the new “lab tech” job only to find out that it's basically factory work. Now I crush rocks into smaller rocks so they can be sent off to a different facility to be analyzed by the real scientists. None of my coworkers have post secondary education.
I just don't know what to do…
