If I had to choose, I would go for x-ray tech.

I have two friends who work that job and they say it's pretty chill. Pay is quite decent too.

Dental hygienist. Better pay than an x-ray tech, and less sass from patients than a nurse.

Dental Hygienist.

Screw x-ray radiation (however minimal exposure we suffer over time) and fuck being a nurse. I don't have the patience to deal with different people.

Nursing is indeed the hardest job. It's back-breaking and thankless. The things you deal with, you take home with you.

It pays really well, though.

I don't imagine X-Ray tech pays a lot so I'm surprised it's the most popular option, but then again...

There are different modalities you can get into. CT, MRI, etc.

On one of my friends graduated from an x-ray program a couple years back. Then did 6 month training to become an MRI tech. He says he gets paid about 88,000 a year (this is in California).

It doesn't pay any better than being a dental hygienist, and I would argue that dentistry is much less stressful.

I picked it cuz least stressful. Dentists apparently have the highest suicide rate of all professions for whatever reason and nurses/doctors are super stressful

Dentistry is definitely less stressful.

Only con is there is virtually zero career mobility for dental hygienists. Nurses can continue to get certificates and degrees. There is so much variety.

I had a friend who got fired for being too slow so I imagine they're very picky about who gets these jobs lol.

XRay techs get paid decently, RN is the hardest job of the three by a mile, and teeth are gross.

I guess if I had a choice I would go with X Ray tech but there is no way people are just walking into that job.

Dental hygienists also do X-rays, so you're not escaping the radiation.

Nursing is very rewarding as long as you don't have to clean up shit.

X-ray. Nurse is too much bullshit for too little pay. And as much as I want to regularly go in people's mouths, dentistry is the evil djinn version of that wish.

X-ray technician involves the least amount of touching people. So that.

X ray tech seems like the easiest and least likely one where I might accidentally injure someone, you know, besides bombarding them with a high dose of radiation.

Shes been doing it for awhile, and didnt make that much when she worked at the hospital. It was only recently when she got hired to some new clinic.

Its just wild though cuz I work at a corporate bank and her salary is on par with mine, despite having considerably less education.

i don't see how that even makes sense. even 50k is pretty insane for a 1 year certification and nothing else. like i said they are probably very picky with who they hire so it's not what i would consider an 'accessible' job.

Why should salary equate with education, and not the inherent value of the profession?

Things that help people...? Like... it seems obvious? Education, healthcare, construction, food production/distribution, infrastructure. Actual important jobs that keep the world, ya know, possible.

weird that the solution is still having inequality instead of just paying everyone the same amount of money and making it cheaper to live
