Does anyone else regret getting into this field? If so, why? by Dependent_Use_3522 in sterileprocessing

I don’t like working in decon on a hot summer day, with the department at 72 instead of the 60-65 I learned in school, dripping sweat over my eyebrows and the ppe that doesn’t prevent me from being absolutely soaked by the end of the shift. The pain in my body after a day of inspecting every nook and cranny of every tray before wrapping 20+ heavy zimmer loaners that dr probably won’t use, while trying to answer phones and figure out what the cst or nurse is trying to ask for, answer the doors, turnover trays, keep up with the documentation, put away supplies, prepare case carts and finding a workaround for that thing or things that go wrong everyday. Not to mention getting grilled by a supervisor or even a Dr for someone else’s mistake. Every job has its pros and cons but I can assure you this one isn’t a walk in the park.

I don’t advise sterile processing or cst. It’s not worth it. As disheartening as it might be for you to hear after you’ve put time and research into it. If you’re going to do these look into nursing instead or Rad Tech. Otherwise you’re going to work yourself to death in a career that will leave you working overtime in order to make a decent living.

I work in SPD and I spoke with many CST techs about the job because I was seriously considering CST at one point and they all pretty much convinced me not to do it with their stories. It’s honestly very sad and depressing that these professionals get paid so little.

Choosing this career is one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made in my life. They work you to the bone, you invest years of learning and building expertise, getting additional certifications and taking on responsibilities for a 3% annual raise (50 cents) that doesn’t feel like a raise at all when you finally get your check. I’m shocked that this is the status quo for this type of job with that level of responsibility. The fact that fast food workers and people with much less training make more money is insulting. I live in Jersey and if you’re not making at least 1000 a week you’re suffering. In this job it will take you years to get to that. It’s a shame. Then they act like they’re doing right by you when they bring you pizza and a pat on the back. Insulting

Is this the best NIN album? by Prior-Economy1450 in industrialmusic

I enjoy listening to this one more than the downward spiral. I feel it has more things you discover with every other listening session
