There really isn’t much I’m allowed to talk about when it comes to work. I can’t talk about the donors who have given their bodies over to science, since not only would that violate the employment agreement I signed, but it’s also not a decent thing to do.

I can say that the pace here is far less busy than my previous job, where there is plenty of downtime and I spend quite some time finding make-work or else I might just go nuts.

The dissections are not an all-day factory-type thing, rather one or two a day is pretty typical for me and since I’m still new I don’t do them alone.

The job is far, far less educational than I thought it would be—at least when it comes down to the dissections themselves—but I do have a lot of time where I can read a book and learn other stuff.

As long as I work my 40 hours a week I’m being paid a constant amount of money, not like where I used to work. I can even make more if I have to do after-hours work too.

Altogether, not only do I not regret coming to work where I do, I think I like what I do now.
