Antiwork asks “are y'all really making less than 50k?” The answer might surprise you.

Here's another vet tech. This one is mad that veterinarians (who go to school nearly as long as actual doctors) make more than them for being cat/dog CNAs

LPNs aka nurses who don't go to college or as I like to say little pretend nurses

I am a veterinary technician. I do everything that a human radiology tech, phlebotomist, nurse, anesthetist, surgical assistant, and more would do… except for your pets. In most states, my position requires a 4-year degree, sitting for a state board exam, and fulfilling continuous licensing requirements just like a human RN. Median income for my job is $38,240. 90th percentile barely cracks $50k annual. Most people I know in the field don't make over $20/hour. Many in the field can't even pay their bills while taking care of designer pets that cost more than our cars.

All of that time. All that studying. All of that test prep. All of those exams. All of those licensing requirements. All of that work.

And at no point did this genius say "hey lets look into how much this job is paid"

I don't feel bad for this person.

Probably intended to be a vet and washed out, many such cases
