Hi guys. New to this sub. I am not a vet tech just yet, but I’ve enrolled in a program at my local community college and I met with my academic advisor today to get enrolled to become one! But I am nervous. I’m 32 and I’ve been out of school since 2011. I just have a few questions. I live in Oklahoma. I’m just worried that I won’t make as much as I do at my current job in the hospitality industry. I can’t afford to make any less than what I’m making right now, but I so desperately want out of this industry. It’s ruining me. Working with animals has always been something I’ve been drawn towards. I just need to know. Is it worth it? In Oklahoma, is there a possibility of me getting a job making over $20 an hour in this industry? I have 3 babies to take care of. We’re paycheck to paycheck as it is. I’m so worried that I’m making the WRONG decision for my tiny family when I’m just trying to make all of the right ones for my own mental well-being. PLEASE HELP.
