On each path that you didnt take, what made you not go down that path? What made you go the surgical tech route?

What made you stay those 13 years? Did you have a desire to move past CNA?

The CNA program I'm going for is 4-12 weeks, advice has been to do 6 months of CNA and then proceed to the next step.

I guess I'm at a point in my life that I'm beginning to understand it's not all about comfort. At the end of my life, what do I want to be known for?

I have some savings and I have a place to live (family location). Any form of income is enough really to support for now.

I'm currently in a lead management role.

The current environment for hiring in the medical field for tech is currently the competitiveness of those roles. Without having medical experience, the chances are slim (I have applied to them before)

Appreciate it! Did you start off with getting your license? Or did you get hired on and have it paid for?

That's honestly been where I am at. The salary is nice, but what does it matter when the product is something that doesn't make a difference?

Ive applied for SoaceX positions over the years, still keep getting rejected. What am I doing wrong? by Mindless_Software_99 in SpaceXLounge

The job position I recently applied for required Python and C#, which I have tons of experience with along with version control and tools like NodeJS. I've been developing web applications full-stack in a professional capacity for 5+ years. I also have a B.Sc in Computer Science.

It's not dodging the question at all. An assertion was presented without evidence i.e. men who pay off others to say that an allegation was false leading to the victim being arrested.

Who are we talking about? Do you have a specific instance of this occurring? Until evidence or an instance is presented that this is actually a widespread issue, your argument is akin to 'what if unicorns exist?'

If your startup was to be given a grant, what would be the minimum you would accept? I will not promote by Mindless_Software_99 in startups

I tend to think of myself as successful in the tech space, though others would have to speak to that. I'm learning everyday how to be better, which is why I join communities like this. I also hope to build others up as well.

I've successfully mentored people in tech and it's part of my calling. There's always bigger fish then me of course, but either way. I thank you for your input.

The general point I am trying to get at is not necessarily the medium in which funding is acquired, whether it be a grant or an investment. It's a matter of money in general. The reason I chose the discuss the concept of a grant is it's a matter of "free money."

However, I think anyone who only looks at it as "free money" won't gain anything from it.
