I quit my corporate job because I was so burnt out in February. I was working remote and sitting at a desk for 10 hours a day. It was meaningless and I knew I couldn’t do it the rest of my life. I spent some time trying to figure out what I wanted to do. I’ve always loved medicine and found out about radiology technologist programs. I applied, interviewed and got in. Obviously i’m grateful and can’t believe I got in on the first try but I’m scared. I have a way of talking myself out of things, but I’m not sure what to do. The program is 27 month, about 45k, and about a hour from my house. I just don’t want to spend all this time and money if I’ll hate it just the same as corporate. In my area there seems to be a lot of CT/MRI jobs but not a lot of X-ray tech jobs and if there are they are per diem. I’m really looking for a job where I can interact with people and not sit at a desk all day long. They gave me a deadline of the day I shadow to accept. I’m sure shadowing will help a lot, but I need the honestly reality from current techs. I know I can always reapply in the future if I decide not to go, but with how competitive programs are I’m not sure that’s the smartest move. I also know I’m been so excited about this since I found out I got an interview and now that it’s real I’m freaking out.
